Healing Retreats for
Trauma Survivors

Join an intimate cohort of women on the shores of beautiful Lake Crescent to connect with nature, yourself, and others to build empowerment, community, and resiliency.

Upcoming Retreats

A Time to Heal & Reconnect with Your Authentic Self

Unbounded Horizons’ healing retreats for trauma survivors take place at NatureBridge, on the shores of Lake Crescent, in Washington’s stunning and peaceful Olympic National Park. The retreats offer those who have experienced emotional trauma an opportunity to reconnect: with oneself, with one another, and with the cathartic healing power of nature.

The retreats’ facilitators are trauma-informed educators, advocates, therapists, coaches, and movement practitioners, as well as trauma survivors themselves. They are dedicated to helping you reflect on your experiences without judgement, gain awareness about your mental and physical responses to triggering events, learn new skills to advance toward the life you desire, and–perhaps most importantly–discover how a deepened spiritual connection with the natural world and its rhythms can be a catalyst to help you rediscover your own unbounded horizons.

Retreat Goals

Nature Connection

Deepen your connection with nature for insight, awareness, and stress relief.

Personal Development

Develop attitudes of self-empowerment, self-compassion, self-awareness, and self-advocacy.

Intentional Movement

Reconnect with yourself through meditative walks, hikes, breathing, and tension reduction exercises.

Resiliency Toolkit

Leave the retreat with new skills, practices, and resources to help you to maximize your emotional and physical stability.

Our Unique Approach

Is this retreat right for you?

Acknowledging and addressing your trauma is a very personal experience, and your choice of treatment is equally personal. Our aim is to bring together a group of women for whom a deepened connection with nature can advance their own healing. This program may be a great fit for you if you are:

Interested in exploring the potential for healing that is present in our interactions with the natural world.
Receptive to new modalities, practices, and techniques to help process and move through trauma.
Possessing the emotional intelligence to participate without ego in a group healing context.
Comfortable with silence, personal reflection, and stillness, as well as with guided group activities.

If this sounds like you, and if you’d like to learn more, please schedule a discovery call with our Founder, Dana Lawson. The call is complementary and carries absolutely no obligation.

Experience The Healing Power Of Nature And Community

Throughout the retreat, you will be cradled and nurtured by Olympic National Park, as you enjoy your stay at NatureBridge, nestled on the shores of peaceful Lake Crescent. Everything has been carefully considered and designed to optimize your comfort as you dig into the impacts of your trauma and learn new techniques to process, release, and move past the pain. Wheelchair accessible facilities are available and we are happy to arrange meal adjustments to align with your dietary preferences. If you require specific accommodations to make your stay as comfortable for you as possible, please do not hesitate to get in touch and our team will happily assist you.

Rejuventating Location:

Home to alpine ridges, temperate rain forest, and rugged coastline, Olympic National Park is home to three stunning and distinct ecosystems.

Restful Accommodations:

Historic cabins hold a unique charm and feature the traditional construction of the NatureBridge property. Each cabin is different in layout and size and includes a private restroom.

Nutritious Meals:

Guests enjoy hearty delicious meals, prepared at the historic Rosemary Inn, surrounded by commanding views of Lake Crescent and Pyramid Peak.

Participant Requirements

All I can say is wow!
Attending this retreat was the gift of a lifetime. I loved every second of it, even the uncomfortable parts. I've come away with so many tools, a full heart and so much peaceful motivation to continue doing "the work" of healing and living my purpose. The embodiment work was transformative, literally. I suffer from chronic pain and found myself 100% pain free by the last day, I definitely feel like I "shook off" some emotional damage after the embodiment sessions. I don't feel stagnant, stuck or bound up and I am beyond grateful for this newfound way of being in my body. The sound bath left me without words. One of the most beautiful experiences of my life. I wish I could express how profoundly moved I was and how deeply I loved I felt. I had an overwhelming sense of gratitude and peace for several days afterwards... Words are not enough to express my gratitude... I feel renewed and whole.
