      Where the jungle meets the sea.....
and ACOA's find each other and heal

Tulum, Mexico

June 6-9
3 nights, 4 days 

Join us for an unforgettable retreat in the tropical paradise of Tulum, where you'll embark on a transformative journey to Heal the Parent Wound, reparent your inner child, and connect to your highest self.  This Retreat is solely for those who identify as adult children of alcoholic parents.

 

For many of us, myself included, our past experience shapes our present reality.  As ACOA's we may carry deep-seated wounds from our upbringing, impacting our relationships, self-esteem and overall well-being.    But here, amidst the tranquility, we will call in each element; earth, air, fire and water,  and our plant allies to embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing.  â€‹

 

Our program is carefully crafted to address the specific needs of ACOA's.  Through therapeutic workshops,  meditations and activities we will create a safe place to confront past trauma, untangle complex emotions and reclaim our inner power.
 

Our sacred circle will take place in Tulum.  Tulum is a high energy vortex, known for healing and magic.  you are free to participate in whatever you want and leave the rest, trusting your intuition to tell you what you need.  Our inner work and journey will be complemented by the abundant activities available to us in Tulum.  ​

 

You will be pampered, supported, and held in whatever way you need while you are here.  imagine 3 days to just focus on you while benefitting from the healing magic of community.

I'm Kierstan.
Join me 

In 2022 alone, I conducted over 1000 therapy sessions, with over 200 individual clients.  I have an idea of individual suffering, what people are seeking and what they need.  It is community, connection to self, healing and hope.

WHERE DO I FLY INTO?

Fly into Cancun Airport. Or Tulum  Transportation to Tulum will be arranged.  It is a 2-hour drive to Tulum.  Shuttle leaving Cancun airport around 2:30 pm.  If that time does not work, I can recommend other transportation options, such as the ADO bus's or private shuttles.  We will have another private shuttle leaving the Airbnb Sunday morning to the Cancun Airport at 10 or11 am. One of the reasons we chose this location is because of the many direct flights from the USA to Cancun.  

WHERE WILL WE BE STAYING?

Our accommodations will be in a beautiful airbnb in Tulum.  It is considered a luxury accommodation.  It has enough beds for everyone, private bedrooms for those who prefer, and access to beautiful nature and beaches all around.  It has room to find quiet space to reflect or places to congregate as a group if you are wanting to be more social.  We will have good food and drinks to keep you hydrated.  The house also includes a pool and rental bikes (which is really the only way to get around Tulum).  

A LITTLE ABOUT ME.

I have been a psychotherapist for 17 years.  I have had a private practice since 2014 and been exclusively teletherapy since 2018 while traveling the world.  When the pandemic began I made Mexico my permanent home.  I am licensed in 4 states.  I am certified as a trauma therapist.  Almost all of my own trauma and necessary work has come from having an alcoholic parent.  

 

Three years ago I decided to expand my mind and personally experience alternative forms of medicine.  I tried hypnosis, past life regression, meditations, reiki, acupuncture and psychedelics.  I felt truly changed when I tried psilocybin and became committed to learning about plant medicine.  Since then I have taken numerous courses learning about psychedelics, preparation, integration, dosing and the way that they interact with our brains. 

​

If you are still wondering who is this person?? Read this.  It is my letter to my future clients.  I think it will give you a good idea of who I am as a therapist.
