Solution focused individual consultations are available to provide input, direction and guidance for both personal and professional enrichment.
Often times the feedback and learning that occurs in a group setting is invaluable and reaches a level that individual work does not. We live in community and often need that community to reach our highest potential. Making a choice to sit in a circle with others is a powerful option offered at Willow.
Sessions offered in a group format are usually developed around a specific theme. Closed groups are designed to address a particular organization's needs and available only to that organization's staff and clients. Open groups are offered regularly at Willow and are open to anyone interested in the topic/theme being presented. Most groups are designed to run 6-8 sessions and are held weekly or monthly depending on content and needs assessment.
Sampling of group topics:
- Building healthy relationships
- Codependency

Retreats are developed in half day, daylong or weekend formats and each is tailored around a specific topic or focus. The retreats are designed to allow participants the opportunity to step away from their day-to-day responsibilities and take the necessary time to reflect upon issues that are most important to them. The topic or focus can easily be tailored to fit the needs of a group or company. Retreats can be hosted at Way of the Willow or on-site at your company, group or organization.
