Workshops and Retreats

Each year a variety of workshops and retreats on different themes are offered. These events are held in the spirit and philosophy of holistic psychology. Workshops and retreats allow participants to learn and grow with each other. It can be a time and space away from the day-to-day world to open to new ways of living. Retreat space also provides participants with a time and space for rest and renewal.

Workshop and retreats support and augment the introspective experience of individual, one-on-one, therapeutic work. They allow participants a place to practice relational skills, in a safe setting. Workshops and retreats provide a brief practical experience of living in relationship and in community, experiences that are so important in the evolution of healing.
