Retreats

Intentional spaces for therapists to restore, realign, and reconnect with themselves and their work.

At Congruent Practice, our retreats are designed for therapists, supervisors, and practice owners who are seeking depth without overwhelm, spaciousness without disconnection, and growth that honours the whole person.

Our retreats offer a pause from the demands of holding others — creating space to reconnect with yourself, your work, and the way you lead.

Rather than focusing on skills or productivity, our retreats are grounded in the concept of congruence — the alignment between your inner experience, your clinical presence, and the systems you work within.

We focus on three interconnected layers that shape your professional world:

• Congruence within yourself
Your values, boundaries, internal narratives, and what helps you feel like you again.

• Congruence within your therapy work
Your presence in the room, emotional patterns, energy, and how you show up with clients.

• Congruence within your practice
Your role as a solo practitioner or practice owner, the culture you create, and the decisions that support sustainability.

Whether you work independently or lead a team, these layers are always in relationship — and when they’re out of alignment, it’s felt everywhere.

The Retreat Experience

Our retreats are held in environments that naturally support presence, reflection, and genuine rest.

We blend:

  • Guided teaching grounded in therapeutic frameworks and systems thinking

  • Experiential and embodied practices

  • Personal reflection and intuitive exploration

  • Small-group dialogue and shared inquiry

  • Spacious time for rest, nature, and integration

This is not a business seminar.
And it’s not a passive wellness weekend.

It’s an intentional space designed to reconnect the personal and professional parts of your identity — so leadership can emerge from alignment rather than effort.

Coming Home to Congruence

An immersive retreat for therapists and practice owners who are outwardly capable and committed, yet inwardly depleted.

You may arrive carrying the weight of holding others — clients, teams, systems — while feeling disconnected from your own centre, clarity, or vitality.

Over five nights and six days held in nature, community, and embodied practice, participants are invited to gently release survival coping and return to a felt sense of internal alignment.

Through guided inquiry, reflection, and rest, this retreat supports you in reconnecting with your deeper why, restoring trust in your inner compass, and experiencing leadership as an expression of congruence rather than performance.

Participants leave feeling grounded, resourced, and reconnected — with practical tools, embodied practices, and meaningful relationships that support sustainable leadership.

Our Vision for Future Retreats

CHECK OUT OUR UPCOMING RETREAT

Our vision is to offer annual retreats that support therapists in deep restoration, alignment, and intentional leadership.

Each retreat — whether held in Canada or abroad — will honour the same core intention:

To support therapists in aligning their inner world, their clinical presence, and their practice in ways that are sustainable, human, and deeply congruent.

Locations may change. Themes may evolve.
The commitment to depth, care, and integrity will remain.
