Healing Retreat For Survivors of Child Sexual Trauma

Now is the time for survivors to unite and together free ourselves from the effects of trauma on our bodies, hearts, minds and spirits. This Healing Retreat offers a ceremonial container for a small group of participants to honor, grieve and celebrate the trials and triumphs in the journey of healing from childhood sexual abuse. Created for survivors by survivors, we use a holistic approach to unravel the pervasiveness of isolation, silence and shame, and to weave together our collective stories while being witness to one another’s individual experience.

This retreat uses a variety of modalities to explore how childhood experiences are held in the different aspects of self and offers opportunities for release, clearing and healing through talking circles, somatic practice, movement, visualization, singing, a grief ritual, and quiet integration time.

The Healing Retreat  is for adult survivors* of childhood sexual trauma, defined as any sexual violation experienced by someone under the age of 18.  The Healing Retreat is open to participants over 18 years old of all genders, racialized identities, and sexual orientations. 

This retreat is intended for those who have already begun their healing journey and are seeking more support by working with others within a sacred circle. 

*We use the term survivor, and acknowledge that this may not be the term all folks who have experienced sexual trauma may use to describe themselves.
