This retreat is designed primarily for licensed mental health therapists in clinical practice. If you work in an adjacent field, such as health coaching, holistic healing, integrative nutrition, medicine, massage therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy, psychiatry, psychiatric nursing, or another allied profession, you are also welcome to attend.

Please note this retreat is not a substitute for personal therapy or clinical training. It is not intended for those new to healing professions without an existing credential. Additionally, attending this retreat does not grant the ability to call yourself a licensed therapist or mental health professional if you are not already one. It’s important that you continue to work within your current scope of practice.

Not at all. This retreat is experiential, embodied, and deeply restorative. You’ll learn practices you can immediately apply in your clinical work. More importantly, you’ll feel them in your own body and nervous system. This is not an overly intellectual event. It’s restorative, not burnout-inducing.

You'll explore a wide range of experiential, holistic practices, including: holistic therapy, yoga nidra, breathwork, mindfulness, mindful walking and eating, integrative nutrition, environmental sustainability, transpersonal psychology, and adjunctive tools like sunlight, heat, and cold exposure.

All topics are evidence-based, with lecture and experiential practice woven together to make learning engaging, embodied, and fun.

This is an intimate, small-group retreat, limited to ensure personal attention and community connection. We expect approximately 12–14 people total, including the facilitator and an assistant.
