Group EMDR is an effective way to help you desensitize the intensity of the emotions when you think about diagnosis or the worst parts of treatment that your mind and body feel a little (or very) stuck on.

You are in charge of your healing.

Caregivers will be prioritized for the Caregiver Retreats, but you are welcome to be added to the waitlist and space permitting, you will be able to join as well!

We always need volunteers! If you have already participated in the retreat or are a clinician willing to donate some of your time, please Reach out! Volunteers are at the heart of this ministry!
