A Creative Sanctuary For Self Discovery
Where Creativity Meets Healing
​​​Healing Hearts Haven is a space for creative exploration—where art becomes a language for growth, and life becomes a canvas for transformation. Discover who you are beneath the noise through art, reflection, and mindful creation. At Healing Hearts Haven, we guide individuals, families, children, and groups on journeys of creative self-discovery through art, story, and reflection. Our work helps people reconnect with their intuition, break old patterns, and design lives rooted in authenticity, compassion, and creative freedom.
At Healing Hearts Haven, we believe that true healing starts within. However, our society often asks people to change—whether through therapy, the legal system, or healthcare—only to send them right back into the environments that shaped them with no skills to function within the dysfunction. But what if we approached healing differently? We help people uncover who they are beneath their environmental conditioning through the language of their inner selves. Our programs awaken the part of you that already knows how to heal, grow, and thrive—no diagnosis, no therapy—just pure, expressive discovery toward your own inner light and agency.
WELCOME
OUR FOUNDER
Ashley Morken is the founder of Healing Hearts Haven, a holistic space for creative transformation that bridges systems thinking, artistry, and life coaching. Drawing on her years in criminal and family law, Ashley witnessed firsthand how institutional systems often miss the deeper emotional and relational roots of human struggle. She realized that change doesn’t happen through punishment or compliance—it happens when people are given tools to understand themselves and their environments, and are empowered to grow through them.
​
Recognizing this need, Ashley envisioned a model that redefines healing and personal development through creativity, self-expression, and systemic awareness. At Healing Hearts Haven, she offers intuitive coaching, immersive retreats, interactive workshops, and speaking engagements designed to help individuals and communities reconnect with authenticity and purpose.
​
For youth, families, couples, and individuals seeking direction, Healing Hearts Haven provides something different—a place to be seen, understood, and guided toward self-trust through creative exploration and emotional insight. Whether through art, reflection, or guided experiences, our mission is to help people uncover what’s buried beneath conditioning and step into empowered, generational change.
HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT
At Healing Hearts Haven, we believe transformation begins when creativity meets awareness. While many systems focus on fixing individuals, our coaching model focuses on freeing them — guiding people to reconnect with the wisdom, voice, and creativity that already live within.
Our coaching, retreats, workshops, and self-led courses are designed for those ready to move beyond analysis and into authentic action. We serve the self-led healer — individuals who are no longer content to survive inside the systems that shaped them, but who want to design a life that feels aligned, expressive, and whole.
​
Unlike traditional models that focus solely on the individual, we view growth systemically — exploring the web of relationships, environments, and generational stories that influence how we see ourselves. Through creative expression, intuitive reflection, and somatic awareness, we help clients move through limiting patterns not by diagnosing or labeling them, but by creating new, empowering narratives through art, language, and lived experience.
​
Our mission is to equip individuals and families with tools for self-trust, emotional agility, and creative resilience — skills that support life within real-world dysfunction, not just outside of it. We don’t teach people to escape their environments; we help them learn how to thrive within them while reclaiming their agency and inner light.
At Healing Hearts Haven, we don’t believe healing belongs only to the clinical world. We believe it belongs to everyone — and that creativity is one of the most powerful languages of the soul.

WE DO THIS THROUGH
One-on-One
Coaching
A highly personalized approach to self-advocacy, emotional resilience, and breaking generational cycles of trauma.

Retreats
Experiential healing through intuitive art, mindfulness, and systemic themes that address family dynamics, enmeshed interrelationships, trauma, and emotional resilience within a short half or full day immersion unique to your audience.
Self-Led
Courses
Designed for those who prefer to work at their own pace, our courses offer deep self-reflection, mindfulness, and intuitive art techniques to help individuals rewrite their own stories from within their own unique lenses. Our founder shares her own personal experiences in healing to guide you on a path of self discovery and efficacy in your own life.
On-Site Trainings &
Speaking Engagements
Our founder offers unique perspectives toward healing that spring from her own discoveries of self through intuitive art exercises she designed to bring about self efficacy, personal healing, radical accountability, and relationship perspectives that helped shaped her life and herself.

Ways We Help
Transformation
Through individual coaching, we create personalized, one-on-one sessions that help people reconnect with their inner selves, break free from limiting beliefs, and nurture self-compassion. Our systemic workshops and speaking engagements offer deeper insights into generational healing, relationship dynamics, and self-awareness, equipping participants with practical tools to cultivate healthier connections. For those seeking a more immersive experience, our retreats provide sacred spaces for reflection, renewal, and profound emotional growth. And for those who prefer a self-paced journey, our self-led courses empower individuals to explore healing at their own rhythm, with guidance rooted in mindfulness, creativity, and emotional integration.
Collaboration
Beyond working with individuals, we are committed to engaging with the broader community to create ripples of healing and transformation. Through outreach programs, collaboration with local organizations, and community-driven initiatives, we bring emotional wellness practices into everyday spaces, making healing accessible to all. Whether it's through art therapy workshops, trauma-informed discussions, or family healing circles, we cultivate a sense of belonging where every voice is heard, every story is honored, and every heart is seen. By fostering open dialogue and offering supportive spaces, we help individuals and families recognize that they are not alone in their struggles, and that healing is possible within the embrace of a caring community.
Creation
At the heart of Healing Hearts Haven is the unwavering belief that love and understanding have the power to transform lives. Our work extends beyond individual healing to inspire collective change, breaking cycles of pain and replacing them with cycles of growth, empowerment, and deep connection. By equipping people with the tools to heal, we create a world where emotional resilience flourishes, relationships are strengthened, and the past no longer defines the future. Through our services, we don’t just help people heal—we help them thrive, embrace their wholeness, and spread that love outward, so that healing becomes a shared experience that touches generations to come.
