Lara Lwin Treadaway facilitates healing and transformation within community, weaving experiential group process, ritual and ceremony, ways of council, embodiment practices, and the creative healing arts to cultivate inspiration, resilience, and joy during these turbulent times. She believes that sacred grief work, earth-honoring ritual, creative expression, and ancestral connection are alchemical pathways to restoring deep belonging, within ourselves, between each other, and with the other-than-human world.
Lara has been leading workshops, retreats, rituals, and trainings for over a decade. Her events are trauma informed, accessible, inclusive, and grounded in deep ecology, radical compassion, and truth-telling.

Along with the public Lara has worked with a diversity of groups including youth on probation, activist groups, veterans, native youth, eco-villages, and the homeless community.
