This will be accomplished with a guide whose background is in human interaction with nature.The overall message: Practice what we preach. We want clinicians to leave with practical clinical tools, renewed energy, meaningful connections, and strategies they can immediately implement with both themselves and the people they serve.What Makes This Retreat Different?This is not a passive continuing education conference.You won't spend two days sitting through PowerPoint presentations.Instead, you'll actively participate in discussion, reflection, experiential learning, movement, time in nature, and collaborative clinical conversations designed to model the very principles we encourage our clients to embrace.Our goal is simple:To help you strengthen your clinical practice, reconnect with the purpose that called you to this profession, and develop sustainable ways to continue serving others without losing yourself in the process.-----Dr. Brooke Jacobs is a licensed clinical psychologist and founder of Delve Health Consulting, where she partners with organizations and helping professionals to strengthen clinical practice, leadership, and organizational well-being. Drawing on experience in clinical psychology, organizational consulting, and professional education, she specializes in translating evidence-based research into practical tools that can be applied immediately with clients, teams, and oneself.Dr. Jacobs believes continuing education should do more than share information—it should create experiences that restore perspective, strengthen clinical practice, and model the very principles we encourage our clients to embrace. Through experiential learning, reflection, and meaningful connection, she helps professionals build skills that support both exceptional care and long-term sustainability in their work.Our retreat is located on the grounds of Camp Ondessonk which provides rustic lodging, nourishing meals, and the chance to explore over 900 acres of awe-inspiring nature trails and waterfalls. Together with the Trailhead Collective, LLC, Dr. Evan Coulson will guide you through outdoor experiences that deepen your connection with yourself and nature, giving you a true reset you can carry home with you.Agenda🕑: 08:30 AM - 05:00 PMFriday: Clinical Excellence Through Experiential LearningInfo: Friday is designed to strengthen your clinical practice while immersing you in the same evidence-based approaches we encourage our clients to use. Rather than sitting through traditional lectures, participants will engage in interactive discussion, experiential exercises, reflective practice, outdoor learning experiences, and collaborative case consultation. Topics may include: - Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for complex and stuck clients - Psychological flexibility and clinician resilience - Trauma-informed care and complex trauma treatment - Domestic violence: recognizing, responding, and supporting clients - Therapeutic rapport and navigating difficult clinical conversations - Clinical judgment and decision-making in complex cases - Boundaries, compassion fatigue, moral injury, and burnout - Case consultation and practical interventions that can be immediately integrated into clinical practiceShared Meals & Meaningful ConversationInfo: Meals are intentionally included as part of the retreat experience. Sharing a table often creates some of the richest conversations, allowing participants to build connections, exchange ideas, and reflect on the day's learning in an informal setting. At the same time, we recognize that restoration looks different for everyone. Participants are equally welcome to enjoy meals in community or to seek quiet moments of solitude throughout the property. Whether you recharge through conversation or reflection, we encourage you to use this time in the way that best supports your well-being.Friday Evening: Connection & CommunityInfo: Following dinner, participants are invited to gather for an informal evening centered on connection, storytelling, and reflection. Helping professionals often carry difficult stories in isolation. This time is intentionally designed to foster community, encourage authentic conversation, and remind us that we are not alone in this work.Untitled agenda🕑: 09:00 AM - 02:30 PMSaturday: Renewal for the HelperInfo: Saturday shifts from learning about wellness to experiencing it.
