Roots to Wings:
Healing Your Inner Child & Embracing Authenticity
Intensive Group Therapy Weekend Retreat April 4-6, 2025
Bragg Creek, Alberta
This intensive group therapy weekend retreat is focused on inner-child healing & connection to your true, authentic self.
Guided by Registered Master Therapeutic Counsellor Jen Reddish, You will be supported to deeply explore how belief systems, shame messaging and dysfunctional roles that you adapted as you were growing up have been carried with you into adulthood, learn how this may have served you at the time and also understand how to stop repeating patterns (belief systems/behaviours/copings strategies) that may feel more dysfunctional as they hold you back in your life now.
A variety of therapeutic interventions will be used to help you to deepen your self-awareness and open capacity for healing and change. You will be supported to embrace ALL parts of yourself, learn how to care for your inner child(ren) and move forward with courage and confidence as your true authentic self. There is a large focus on inner-child healing & shame releasing during these sessions and Jen’s goal is to support you in fostering greater feelings of empowerment, confidence & authenticity in all areas of your life.
