WHAT IS THE ADOLESCENT EXPERIENCE?
Watch this video:
What if you could revisit adolescence with the understanding you have now?
Adolescence is where many of our core beliefs about ourselves, others, and the world first took shape. It’s the stage where we learned how to belong, how to protect ourselves, how to be seen, and how to hide. For many adults, those early adaptations are still quietly influencing choices, relationships, and self-expression, long after the context that formed them has passed. Revisiting adolescence with adult awareness creates an opportunity to understand those patterns, update outdated narratives, and relate to that formative period with clarity rather than reactivity.
What if you could revisit adolescence with the support and perspective you didn’t have at the time?
In this six-day immersive educational workshop, participants are invited into a structured, supportive environment to explore the experiences, relationships, and social contexts that shaped them during adolescence. Rather than focusing on surface-level challenges, the workshop offers space to examine the deeper patterns, adaptations, and narratives that often originate in the teenage years and continue into adulthood.
Through guided somatic practices, creative exploration, reflective exercises, and group-based learning, participants engage with these formative experiences using the awareness and resources of their adult selves. The intention is not to relive the past, but to understand it more clearly, update outdated ways of relating, and integrate new perspectives that support greater choice and agency in the present.
By the end of the six days, participants leave with practical tools, increased self-awareness, and a more grounded relationship to this developmental stage, often experiencing greater clarity, ease, and a deeper sense of connection to themselves moving forward.
Who Should Attend?
Adults 25 and Over
This workshop is designed for adults age 25 and older who were raised within caregiving systems and are interested in understanding how early experiences shape adult patterns. By this stage of development, individuals are better equipped to reflect on formative experiences with perspective, discernment, and personal responsibility. Engaging this work in adulthood allows for deeper insight, integration, and choice.
Those New to This Work
This experience is appropriate for participants who are beginning to explore self-understanding, emotional awareness, and relational patterns. No prior workshop experience is required. A basic familiarity with self-reflection practices is helpful, but curiosity and willingness to engage are the primary prerequisites.
Experienced Participants
This workshop also serves individuals who have engaged in personal growth, educational, or self-inquiry work and are interested in exploring subtler patterns that continue to influence identity, relationships, and decision-making. The curriculum supports refinement, integration, and deeper understanding rather than surface-level change.
Couples
Partners may attend together to explore how personal histories inform communication styles, expectations, and relational dynamics. The workshop provides educational frameworks and shared language that support greater awareness, empathy, and responsibility within adult relationships.
Parents and Future Parents
This experience is valuable for individuals who are parenting or planning to parent and wish to better understand how early developmental experiences influence adult behavior and caregiving approaches. Participants often gain insight into how awareness of their own history supports more conscious, responsive relationships within families.
What is the format?
This workshop is a five-night, six-day immersion with two months of FREE aftercare. The workshop is trauma-informed and facilitated by a doctorate-level psychologist. This workshop offers a deep educational and experiential learning environment designed to support insight, skill-building, and integration.
Tools: You will learn practical tools that are practiced daily and throughout the aftercare program to support nervous system literacy and optimal integration. One of the most impactful aspects of this experience is learning how early-life imprints shape present-day patterns—so you can build new internal reference points, expand choice, and relate to yourself and others with greater clarity and steadiness.
Exercises: Structured group activities that help participants connect with qualities of their inner child through hands-on practices, guided reflection, role-play, scenarios, and creative expression.
Lessons: Comprehensive lessons that are directly applicable to real-life challenges. Lessons are designed to ensure participants deeply understand and engage with the material in a meaningful way.
Immersive Experiences: Longer-form practices with deeper intention and time allocation. These experiences are body-centered and introspective, using guided self-reflection and creative expression to explore subconscious patterns, examine deeply held beliefs, and engage the material as a lived learning process.
