Gatherings

Inspired by an experiential cooking practice, Emma founded A Crowded Table in 2022 to create spaces for people to gently connect with themselves and others through food, meal making, and gathering. This offering is inspired by themes of emotional and physical nourishment for self and relationships.

Emma creates and facilitates unique mindful cooking experiences in group therapy, events, and workshops. Participants can expect a guided cooking experience, an overview of mindful awareness, therapeutic metaphor for self reflection, and dynamic discussion.

Emma is seeking partners to host a group therapy session or series and workshops for continuing education, team and relationship building, and kitchen confidence and joy. Gather your people and needs and reach out to host or co-create a gathering. Explore our event archive and gallery here.
