About Jane

Jane Buchan is a writer, teacher, and trauma-sensitive coach. Her interest in how we heal from trauma has been informing her fiction and non-fiction since her first novel, Under the Moon, was published by McClelland & Stewart in 1983.

Since then, Jane has published several novels and short stories, with a particular focus on trauma and the healing powers of trauma-sensitive communities. She focuses on several supports for increasing trauma awareness and reducing trauma reactivity in her latest non-fiction work, Adverse Childhood Experiences, Adult Trauma, and the Return to Wholeness: Reflections and Tools for the Journey.

Befriending the Guardians is a specialized trauma sensitive program developed by Jane to help and support writers anyone as they work through blocks to reaching their creative and personal goals.
