Not every life issue fits neatly into a predefined category. Maybe you’re facing a major, complex decision, going through a period of profound upheaval, experiencing a crisis of meaning, or carrying something with you that simply can’t be reduced to a retreat title.
Or maybe you just have this vague, inner feeling that something isn’t quite right anymore. You feel out of balance; you can’t pinpoint exactly what it is, but you sense very clearly: something needs to—and wants to—change.
This exclusive one-on-one retreat is perfect for you if you’re longing for clarity and honest psychological guidance, but don’t clearly identify with any other program. During these three days, there’s no rigid, predetermined schedule. The focus is solely on you and what you need right now.
We’ll create exactly the space your system needs right now to discover new perspectives and reconnect with what truly matters to you.
✦ What you can look forward to
Depending on what emerges in your process and what feels right for you, we’ll combine and utilize:
* Psychological guidance & Walk & Talk: Creative methods and solution-focused conversations while walking in nature to clear your head and sort through your thoughts.
* Body-oriented approaches: Body awareness exercises, gentle elements from trauma-sensitive yoga, or forest bathing to shift from pure thinking back to feeling.
* Energetic & shamanic work: If you’d like, we’ll use nature rituals and energetic impulses to release blockages where the mind alone can’t make progress.
* Time for silence and retreat: Maximum space just for you to let the experience sink in.
Your Benefits: noticeably more peace of mind, emotional relief, clarity, and new perspectives
✦ The Next Step
Perhaps you sense that something inside you is ready to shift.
And perhaps you’re also wondering whether my retreat is really the right choice for you right now.
You don’t have to decide that just yet—that’s exactly what the free introductory conversation is for.
During this conversation, we’ll talk with no strings attached, see where you’re at, answer your questions, and see if we click.
The conversation lasts about 15 minutes.
Afterward, you’ll have a clear sense of which next step feels right for you.
Feel free to send me your request.
One more important thought regarding your planning:
Since my retreats are deeply connected to nature, I host them exclusively during the warmer months, from May through October. My personal one-on-one coaching is therefore limited each season. If you feel that this year is your time for change, please let me know your preferred date as early as possible.

✦ How I Work
I’m Sabine, a psychological counselor and the woman behind “The Green Couch.” I guide people through life transitions in nature, especially when it comes to reconnecting with themselves, taking their boundaries seriously, and no longer ignoring their own needs.
* With heart, humor, and clarity: I take a nervous-system- and neurodivergence-friendly approach, but I also bring an honest attitude and a willingness to explore with you the places where things get uncomfortable.
* Undivided attention: With me, you’ll get something that’s become rare: plenty of time. During your retreat, I’m there exclusively and one-on-one just for you and your process.
* No “functioning,” no “performing”: Many experience their time with me as a safe haven from everyday life. Simply be cared for for a few days, take a deep breath, and explore together with someone the burden you’ve been carrying alone for far too long.
* Shamanic Roots & Nature Work: Nature is far more than just a beautiful backdrop: it regulates your overloaded nervous system and is an active part of our shared process.
Upon request, ancient shamanic tools, nature rituals, and subtle energy work are incorporated into your support. This helps resolve issues where the rational mind often reaches a dead end—in a deeply grounded and utterly down-to-earth way.
The foundation of my work
Training in life and social counseling, couples and sex therapy, bodywork, human energetics, shamanism, and nature and wilderness education. Over the years, this has evolved into my very own style: psychologically grounded, nature-based, and deeply grounding.
✦ The Retreat Location
My lovingly maintained place of power is located in the Murtal valley in Styria. It’s surrounded by lush green nature and nestled between mountains, forests, and water. It’s a place to take a deep breath, completely free of TV, radio noise, or the constant digital buzz that keeps you constantly disconnected from yourself.
Instead, you’ll find: nature’s cinema with the murmur of a stream and a chorus of birds. No Wi-Fi, but a full connection to yourself.
✦ What Your Days with Me Will Look Like
Your retreat follows a clear structure, but isn’t meticulously scheduled down to the minute.
We work with whatever arises and is important at the moment.
• Day 1: Arrival & Settling In You’ll arrive at your own pace starting at 3:00 p.m. Afterward, we’ll get to know each other during our first “Walk & Talk” in nature and take a look at the topic that brought you here. The evening is all about winding down: a cozy dinner, taking a deep breath, and stargazing.
• Day 2: Deepening & Process Work The heart of your retreat. After breakfast, we’ll focus entirely on your topic. Depending on what your system needs at the moment, we’ll work through conversation, walking in nature, creative activities, or body awareness. In between, there will be regular breaks to process, reflect, and rest.
The day ends with dinner once again.
• Day 3: Integration & Transfer After breakfast together, we’ll take time to reflect on the experience: What has come to light? What has become clearer, and how will you take this new strength back with you into your everyday life? Your retreat ends around 10:00 a.m.
