from 6-7:30 PM. This is a 2 part group process!

Therapeutic Art Group: Zentangle/Mandalas: Diana Robinson and John Davis

Current Clients: Sign up through administrative support or email Toni at tshearer@c4hh.com

Non-clients: $25.00 per group fee. Sign up through email to Toni at tshearer@c4hh.com

This therapeutic art group for ages 16+ invites participants to explore healing, mindfulness, and self-expression through the creative practice of Zentangle and Mandala art. These structured yet calming art forms encourage focus, grounding, emotional regulation, and present-moment awareness while providing a gentle outlet for stress reduction and self-reflection.

Research continues to support the clinical connection between creative expression, mindfulness-based practices, and improvements in anxiety, emotional overwhelm, trauma symptoms, and overall mental wellness. The repetitive patterns and intentional design process used in Zentangle and Mandala work can help calm the nervous system, increase concentration, promote relaxation, and create a greater sense of inner balance and self-awareness.

No artistic experience is needed — only a willingness to slow down, create, and engage in a supportive and judgment-free environment.

If you’ve ever thought about trying Combat Fitness or kickboxing, consider this your sign. You don’t have to be experienced, athletic, or “in shape” to start. You just have to be willing to take that first step.

One of the most powerful things we can do for our mental and emotional well-being is move our bodies. Stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and life’s challenges can leave us feeling stuck, but movement has a way of shifting energy, releasing tension, and reminding us of our strength.

Just look at the smiles afterward! Sometimes the hardest part is showing up, but the reward is often feeling stronger, lighter, and more empowered than when you arrived.

Come join us. Challenge yourself. Move your body. Change your energy. You might be surprised by what you’re capable of. #CombatFitness#MindBodyHealing#TraumaInformedWellness#MoveToHeal#CenterForHopeAndHealing#StrongerThanYouThink

We are so excited to welcome Maribeth Gutshall back to the Center for Hope and Healing as she helps us continue creating opportunities for healing through movement, connection, and wellness. Maribeth brings such a supportive, encouraging energy and a genuine passion for helping others reconnect with their strength — both physically and emotionally.

Fitness has been Maribeth’s passion for more than 15 years. Having survived her own medical trauma, she deeply understands how important movement and staying active can be in the healing process. As a group fitness and personal trainer, she loves motivating others to push past limitations, build confidence, and move toward healthier, more empowered lives. Combat/Kickboxing is one of her favorite classes to teach because of the strength, stress release, and confidence it can help build in others.

Outside of the gym, Maribeth loves staying active, enjoying beach days, loving on dogs, and embracing all things Disney.

Join us for Combat Fitness — a beginner-friendly weekly class designed to improve both physical and emotional wellness through guided movement, cardio, strength building, and healthy stress release techniques inspired by combat-style fitness training. This class is not about aggression — it is about empowerment, resilience, confidence, and reconnecting the mind and body in a safe, trauma-informed environment.

Research continues to show the strong connection between aerobic movement and improvements in depression, anxiety, emotional regulation, stress management, confidence, and overall mental health. Whether you are looking to reduce stress, reconnect with your body, gain confidence, or simply take one healthy step forward, this class welcomes you exactly as you are.

Beginner Friendly

Trauma-Informed & Supportive

Sometimes healing doesn’t begin with words… sometimes it begins with rhythm.

Join us this Friday at noon for Restorative Rhythms, a powerful drumming and percussion experience designed to promote emotional healing, stress relief, connection, and self-expression through music. Center for Hope and Healing is excited to welcome Dani Fiore, founder of Empowered Music LLC, a music lesson studio and the first proudly LGBTQ-inclusive music school in Central PA to facilitate our experience !

Through shared rhythm, participants are invited to release tension, reconnect with themselves, and experience the calming and energizing effects of music in a supportive, judgment-free space. Research continues to show that rhythm and percussion can help regulate the nervous system, reduce anxiety, improve mood, and foster a greater sense of grounding and connection.

No musical experience is necessary — just come as you are.

All instruments are provided.

Whether you are carrying stress, grief, overwhelm, or simply looking for a healthy outlet and meaningful connection, this group offers a unique opportunity to heal through the universal language of rhythm.

A little rain is nothing compared to the love, care, and second chances these sweet dogs deserve. Grateful for rescues like this that remind us how healing compassion can be — for animals and humans alike.

Every wagging tail, every rescued life, and every act of kindness matters! Today the award goes to the golfers who braved the rain and cold for the cause!
