Retreat Options

1. Weekend Intensives: For individuals or couples who are unable to fit regular counseling sessions into their busy schedules, we provide onsite overnight accommodations in your own private cabin with as many scheduled counseling sessions as you feel necessary. Weekend Intensives provide safe and enriching opportunity for individuals/couples to work through particularly difficult issues and/or crisis in a short period of time. Advanced scheduling is recommended.
   
   
2. TRANSCENDENT LOVE: A New Model For Relationship Several times per year, this weekend intensive is presented for couples and individuals seeking to transform their lives and relationships. Relationship is the single most potent entity for bringing about personal growth. Relationship, like nothing else, has a way of consistently presenting a two-pronged dilemma: 1) grow and expand consciously, increasing the quality of your life, or; 2) resist, continuing negative patterns / conflicts and unconsciously diminishing the quality of your life.

   	Transcendent Love: A new model for relationship
   	The 3-developmental stages of Transcendent Love
