SUMMARY:Library of Life
DESCRIPTION:The Library of Life Book Tour is designed to highlight both books and life resources as tools for healing and growth.\n\n\nThis event is free and open to the public. It will be held in Rooms 131/132 in the Heim Center. Registration is not required yet seating is limited. There will be an opportunity to purchase Ciara’s book after the presentation. \nRooted in my book Cliché Your Way Through Life REMIX\, each event blends storytelling\, therapy-inspired reflection\, and practical life tools. By connecting the metaphor of the library with real-life resources\, the program encourages participants to see both literature and community as guides for navigating challenges\, building resilience\, and creating lives they don’t want to escape. \nCiara Ward – Bio \nCiara Ward is a licensed clinical therapist\, conflict resolution specialist\, author\, and founder of Ci Notes\, a platform that provides tools for emotional healing\, life skills\, and authentic living. With over eight years of experience in hospitals\, courts\, schools\, and private practice\, she supports individuals and families through some of life’s toughest moments. \nKnown as the Librarian of Life\, Ciara blends her personal story with clinical expertise to help people heal the parts of themselves they were taught to hide. Her journey from trauma survivor to therapist\, mentor\, doula\, and educator is living proof that everything she needed\, she became. Ciara works with people of all ages\, cultures\, and backgrounds\, reminding us that therapy is not just for the couch. It is for the world.
