Therapist weekend retreats

Reflective retreat for therapists

Alongside my clinical work, I am slowly developing reflective retreats for therapists and helping professionals. These are gentle spaces for pause, rest, and remembering what matters. They are not therapy, but carefully held days shaped by psychology, conversation, and quiet reflection. The retreats are designed to step out of urgency and return to meaning, presence, and connection. They are offered as small, intentional gatherings at Abbotsford Convent, with future retreats planned in regional Victoria.

Who this retreat is for

This retreat is for therapists and helping professionals. It is a space created by and for people who hold others every day. It is designed for reflection, rest, and shared understanding with peers who know the work from the inside. This is a therapist only space, held with care, trust, and respect.

Format and timing

The retreat runs over one weekend.
Saturday is held from 9:00am to 5:00pm.
Sunday is held from 9:00am to 3:00pm.

The days follow a spacious rhythm with regular breaks. There is time to rest, walk, write, and sit quietly.

What the retreat includes

Guided reflective sessions grounded in psychology and lived experience.
Small group conversations held with care and confidentiality.
Quiet individual reflection and journalling.
Optional gentle group exercises focused on meaning, identity, and renewal.

There is no pressure to share more than feels comfortable.

Important note on scope

This retreat is not therapy and it is not supervision. It does not involve case discussion, clinical guidance, or professional assessment. It is a reflective and collegial space for therapists to pause, think, and share as people rather than practitioners. Participation is voluntary, and sharing is always optional.

Food and care

A nourishing vegan and gluten free lunch is provided on both days.
Tea, coffee, and light refreshments are available throughout the retreat.

Location

The retreat is held at Abbotsford Convent in a quiet, light filled space.

Cost

The cost for the full retreat is $490.
Places are limited to keep the group small and intentional.
