About this Retreat
Your Guides
I am a Licensed Clinical Counselor and Certified Trauma Professional from San Diego, California, with a background spanning dance and entertainment, animal care, and the mental health field. I hold additional certifications in leadership, and trauma, and somatic practices.
I approach therapy, and my own life, from the belief that all behavior is a choice (conscious or not) made to meet one of our basic human needs. We are responsible for our choices, which means yeah, it might get uncomfortable facing that truth, but with that responsibility comes hope, personal control, and the power to change!
In my work I use evidence-based therapeutic practices mixed with dry humor, gentle confrontation, and occasional swearing, to help my clients gain insight, and clarity while creating a balance between following their passion and nurturing the most important connections in your life- including that to yourself.
As a retreat leader I combine professional training with personal passions for travel, connection, and living a value driven life to use shared experiences
Details of this retreat
Happiness isn’t something that just happens when life finally slows down. Research in psychology shows it’s something we can learn, practice, and strengthen over time.
This retreat is designed to help you step out of the noise of everyday life and explore the science and practice of wellbeing in a supportive, small-group environment.
Together we’ll explore practical tools from psychology and neuroscience that help people create more sustainable joy, emotional balance, and connection in their lives.
During our time together you’ll learn skills for:
• regulating your nervous system and reducing chronic stress
• understanding the patterns that block happiness
• building habits that support lasting wellbeing
• reconnecting with meaning, joy, and presence
This is not about surface-level positivity or escaping real life. It’s about learning the psychological skills that allow happiness to exist even in a complicated world.
The retreat is intentionally kept to a small group so there is space for meaningful discussion, reflection, and connection.
If you’re looking for a chance to reset, learn powerful tools for wellbeing, and spend time in a beautiful environment dedicated to growth and reflection, this experience is designed for you.
