Wilderness Storywork Retreat:
Cle Elum, Washington

What to Expect
To enter into any wood is to enter into a realm in which transformation seems inevitable.
— Sharon Blackie

An immersive storywork retreat to pause, reconnect with yourself and the wild. We’ll set up camp in a quiet creekside valley, creating space to step into one of your childhood narratives within a supportive group setting. Alongside this deep personal work, there will be time to slow down, explore rivers, forests, and mountain trails, and connect with others over evening campfires and morning coffee.

❋ Intentional Structure

We blend guided moments, open exploration, and space to reflect—so the experience feels both focused and fluid.

❋ Day-hike excursion

The retreat will include a fairly strenuous hike to see Washington’s iconic golden larches, with opportunities for reflection, learning, and discovery throughout the journey.

❋ Expert Facilitation

Led by experienced therapists Trapper Lukaart and Andrea Peer who know how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.

❋ A Supportive Space

Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect—so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the process.

Reconnect with your body and mind as you escape the noise of everyday life.
