A training and community support program for therapists, psychiatrists, and mental health practitioners who are ready to integrate new tools of support and connection in their lives and practices.
For those who've experienced burnout,
for those who are feeling limited in their practices,
and for those who simply feel the call to expand and innovate their scope of work...
This 12 week certification program and community constellation is a bridge
between ancient and modern approaches to wellness.
Together, we will build a vessel of support for mental health & wellness professionals
as we explore the boundaries of what healing has been and wants to be.
Gathering at a beautiful location in Topanga, we have the opportunity to retreat from our busy lives, reconnect with ourselves, nature, and one another, and integrate new internal and external structures of support and change.

PHILOSOPHY:
As whole beings and whole communities, healing must be addressed at all levels of experience and expression:
Mindy, body, heart, spirit, and that which is yet known.
As individuals, we are not separate from the collective, and our healing is impacted by and impacts that of the Whole.
We engage with a spiritual and energetic understanding of our experiences with the intention of bringing whole-system awareness into our healing journey, and that of those we help, and to bring ourselves back into alignment with our selves, others, and the natural world.
By coming into community and forming intentional containers for healing & exploration, we create an organic landscape for natural wholeness & inspired growth to emerge within ourselves as practitioners, and for the benefit of those we serve.
As healers, helpers, and those on the front-lines of trauma we are longing for
new dimensions of connection and exploration within ourselves in our work.
We are interested in creating containers for emergent healing.
We are dedicated to bringing a soulful essence back into our clinics and healing spaces, because we know that
the soul which is ignited in the treatment room becomes a part of the soul that is ignited in the world.
We believe in exploring the unknown; the mysteries and the mystical, alongside the mundane and practical.
We are committed to the power of humility that comes in being willing to not know.
We are ready to bring our entire healing capacities to the work.
