The Value of a Personal Growth Retreat

What Therapists Say About STAR

SPECIAL TOPICS

Overcoming Codependent Behavior

Attachment Disorder and Relationship Problems

Treating Depression and Anxiety

Recovery as a Lifelong Process

The STAR Foundation retreat is a profoundly transformative 10-day personal growth retreat. After almost thirty years of experience, STAR is considered by many graduates and therapists to be the most unique, in-depth program of its kind. STAR stands alone among personal growth retreat workshops with its 1:2 staff-to-participant ratio. This exceptionally large staff of diverse and well-trained individuals provides an unparalleled level of close, personal attention, which allows for a highly individualized and tailored experience. Participants find they can work as deeply as necessary to rediscover a life full of genuine spontaneity, joy, and purpose.

Our healing is not an event, but a process. It requires our risking to turn within in order to grieve our wounds and mend our hearts, to heal our past and let go of worn-out patterns of survival which may have served us then, but no longer help. In order to do that, we need time, support, and a safe place. That’s what STAR provides. – Barbara Findeisen
