Your Phoenix Journey – a psychological retreat in a one-on-one setting designed for your transformation

Refugium-Carica is a sanctuary, a wooden vacation home all to yourself. Located in a suburb of Hessisch Oldendorf, on the ridge of the Weserbergland, it is fully equipped and designed for self-catering. It is situated near a forest hiking area and features a private garden for your exclusive use. The rental fee is €420 for your week-long retreat (6 nights at €70 each).
Unfortunately, booking another accommodation is not possible for this retreat.

Self-catering. A fully equipped kitchen is available.

Your Phoenix Journey takes place from Monday through Sunday. You’ll arrive on Monday at 3:00 p.m., and we’ll spend the afternoon getting ready for your week together. We’ll assess where you’re at and focus on your challenge.
On Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, we’ll work together therapeutically for about 3–4 hours each day. Our jointly agreed-upon program is tailored entirely to your personal challenges. You will recognize old strategies, patterns, and beliefs and let go of the past. What will the turning point feel like?
For your new beginning, we will seek out helpful resources, supportive inner aspects, and your inner explorer, allowing you to engage with the new world more authentically and with greater integrity.
On Friday, we’ll take stock together and discuss your next steps and further goals for a more fulfilling future. Feel free to stay until early Sunday and enjoy the peace, relaxation, and power of the retreat.

The following areas of focus are available for therapy/counseling:
- Relaxation techniques, meditation, mindfulness, forest bathing
- Embodiment and nervous system regulation
- Systemic trauma therapy
- Identifying and strengthening resources, boosting self-esteem
- Uncovering and reframing beliefs
- Guilt and forgiveness, Ho’oponopono
- Working with inner aspects, e.g., the inner child, the perfectionist, the inner compass...

The Legend of the Phoenix and Streich’s 7-Phase Model of Change guide us through this shared process.
Your Phoenix Journey Journal and creative materials will support you during your time away.
We’ll find the path that’s right for you.

If you're coming by train, I'd be happy to pick you up at the Hessisch Oldendorf train station and take you back there on Sunday.
