How many times have we all said, "I'm BUSY!"  Ok, honestly, my hand immediately went up! The reality is, we don't see ourselves becoming less busy, right?  The repetitive cycle of daily tasks, checker-blocked calendars, family commitments and ruminating thoughts can send any CEO, student or stay-at-home parent into burnout and check out status.

Here is where Jubilee Counseling and Wellness, LLC JaVon Townsend, licensed social worker, Fulbright researcher (Accra, Ghana) and Albert Schweitzer Fellow (Baltimore City) supports our personal, community and workplace spaces with "ground centering" play through creative arts.  Her sessions are designed to engage the whole body for anxiety, depression and stress reduction.

A playful plan to help people "Keep Going" in peace and on pace through self-knowledge, self-compassion and cultivating community care is her primary purpose.
