Kristen Hutchison is a writer, patient advocate, and a passionate supporter of healthcare reform. She's received her bachelor's of science in biology and psychology from Santa Clara University, and recently completed a year-long medical writing program through Harvard Medical School. She has also completed certifications in somatic therapy, and trauma-informed yoga.
Kristen was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis when she was in high school, and has lived with the condition for over 15 years. During one of the lows points in her medical journey, when the UC was flaring severely, Kristen started journaling. She felt isolated as a young woman with an invisible chronic illness, and needed an outlet to express herself. Kristen knows of the healing power of sharing our stories, and gathering in community to be seen and understood.
Kristen's inaugural writing group starts on February 15th from 6-7:30 pm CST. Virtually or in-person at Sankalpa in Bloomington. We plan to meet monthly!
