Robert Cochrane, PhD

This engaging online course, designed specifically for individuals with Parkinson's, employs the framework of Joseph Campbell's Hero’s Journey and the narrative inspiration of The Shawshank Redemption. Together, they serve as a creative guide to help you explore and articulate your personal story.

Day One: The Parkinson's Prison & The Hero's Journey to Escape

In this powerful new evidence-based class, developed in a PhD study, people with, affected by and serving the  PD community, will explore, write and share their stories from the perspective of feeling imprisoned by PD. We will use Joseph Campbell's Hero’s Journey and The Shawshank Redemption to guide us in a 16-week online program. What stories are keeping you locked in? Find more information and register here.
