A little Beneath the Surface update 🌊✨

We’ve decided to move our evening together to Saturday, August 29!

With the current wildfire situation making travel a little trickier for some participants, we wanted to give everyone some extra breathing room. Moving to a Saturday also gives a little more space for anyone who was interested but couldn’t make the original Friday date.

Everything else stays the same: therapy, human connection, dinner, night kayaking and the glow of bioluminescence ✨

We have 4 spots left if you’ve been thinking about joining us.

Request a spot by August 20. Link in Bio 🩵

✨ 5 spots left ✨

If you’ve been meaning to book a therapy session, why not make it one you’ll never forget?

Beneath the Surface combines therapist-led group psychotherapy with mindfulness, nature, and guided nighttime kayaking beneath the stars.

An RCC/CCC receipt will be provided for the $400 psychotherapy portion. Coverage varies by insurance plan, so check with your provider if you’re unsure.

Request your spot by August 7!

After facilitating my first overnight kayak therapy retreat in June, I left feeling incredibly inspired.

There was something so special about slowing down together in nature. Away from the busyness of everyday life, people had space to breathe, reflect, connect, and just be.

It got me thinking about how I could create another experience that captured that same feeling but in a different format, while making it more accessible for those who couldn’t commit to a full retreat.

That’s how Beneath the Surface came to life. 🌊✨

This experience shares the same foundation of nature, reflection, and connection, while offering something uniquely its own: an evening of therapist-led group psychotherapy, mindfulness, and guided nighttime kayaking, ending with the unforgettable experience of witnessing bioluminescence as the ocean comes alive after dark.

Together, we’ll explore:
🤍 Coming home to yourself
🌿 Regulating your nervous system
✨ Living in alignment with your values
🌊 Slowing down enough to notice what matters
💛 Finding clarity through nature and reflection

In honour of Canada’s historic FIFA win/goal…this week’s letter-board message felt appropriate. 🇨🇦

Cheers to making history yesterday and maybe building new habits 👀

A few weeks later and I’m still constantly thinking about this retreat. About 6 months of creating went into this experience and building it from the ground up, while continuing trying to run my private practice.

There were a lot of things I expected to learn running my first nature therapy retreat, and a lot of things I didn’t.

I didn’t expect us to run out of coffee!

Thank you Kyle for the emergency ground coffee and firewood run to our little crew. We definitely needed it. 😂

I didn’t expect us to end up hours behind schedule on day two because people needed more time to share, process, prepare, connect, and just be together.

I didn’t expect some of the most meaningful moments to happen when people wandered the beach alone, watched the tide roll in, tried to awkwardly get into the kayaks or sat and laughed around the campfire.

I didn’t expect how much laughter there would be.

Or how quickly strangers could become a community.

What this retreat reminded me of is that so much of what we need can’t be rushed.

Trust builds slowly.

Connection builds slowly.

And sometimes the most important thing we can do is slow down enough to listen. To ourselves, to each other, and to the land around us.

I’m incredibly grateful to the six women who trusted us with their stories, and to Amanda, Lara, Kyle, and Laurie for helping bring this experience to life.

Although we’ll only be running one overnight kayak therapy retreat this summer, this experience has sparked so many ideas. There are a few things already brewing behind the scenes.

Stay tuned. 👀🌊🛶☀️

My body is tired. My spirit is full.

A dream eight years in the making finally became reality this weekend. So much gratitude for the land, ocean, community, Amanda (), Lara (), Pedals & Paddles (), and the six incredible women who trusted us with this experience.

Still soaking it all in.

So much more to come ❤️
