Tree in a field

We meet in person on March 15-17 at Bon Secours in Marriotsville, Maryland, and can’t wait to see you there!

In this guided retreat, we will explore the power of stories in our lives. Through guided poetics, sand scenes, journaling, and drawing, the emerging stories give way to meaningful turns in one’s life path.

It is a time to empower the wisdom of your intuitive, instinctual self, so essential in every aspect of daily life. It is a time to strengthen healing stories and reconnect with parts of you that may be lost in the rush of everyday stress. It is a time to pause for Being rather than Producing.

For those interested in earning 18 CEs, an immersive experience is offered.

New Video from The Person of the Therapist Series

In this episode, Dr. Dee speaks with Jesse Fairchild on depth, presence, death and what we are missing in clinical training.

Jesse is a seasoned clinician and clinical supervisor who integrates psychodynamic psychotherapy with contemplative sensibilities of compassion, deep empathic presence, and a respect for the client’s intuitive inner wisdom for healing. Jesse shares her own early developmental experiences with the loss of others through disease and suicide, the suicide of clients, and her own experience with near death.

Jesse emphasizes that deep presence is the primary essential element for safety and healing in therapeutic process. She grounds her approach with each client in a long-held belief to be true to herself in the immediacy of therapy, to trust her intuitions and trust the client. Read more on our video’s page >>
