Group Healing Retreats
Small-Group Retreats for Emotional Healing, Soul Realignment, and Inner Clarity
I lead small, intimate group retreats in the Washington DC area and at select locations around the world, held seasonally with limited spots.
In the busyness of everyday life, it’s easy to become disconnected from your inner truth. Whether you’re carrying emotional weight, craving stillness, or navigating a life transition, these retreats help you release what no longer serves you, reconnect with your essence, and return to your life feeling clear, whole, and grounded.
Each retreat weaves together intuitive energy work, emotional healing, ceremony, and time in nature, held within a safe, loving community where walls come down and lasting friendships begin.

Group Retreats
"A retreat isn't just measured by the experience had at the place and in the time, but by the lasting effect of the waves that continue on to the shore... creating new circles, new pathways and possibilities. This is my second life changing retreat with Atousa." — Cassandra
Perfect for those who thrive in soulful community and are open to group reflection and shared experience.
Offered seasonally with limited spots.

Accommodations & Nourishment
Group Retreat locations are selected intuitively based on the group and purpose. Settings may include homes, resorts, or sacred spaces nestled in nature.
Each location is chosen to support deep rest, emotional healing, and reconnection with self.
Lodging is comfortable, and meals are nourishing, intentional, and prepared with love.
What Group Retreat Participants Say.
Sara C.
"Whether we set an intention or not, each of us came away with exactly what we needed... For me, that was to release through a ton of tears, anger, grief. For others it was experiencing safety and laughter and bonding—allowing walls to dissipate."
Lyra S.
"Every person in our group experienced some beautiful healing energy. We all continue to carry the warmth and loving energy of our trip inside our hearts. Atousa has many methods for helping you to shift your perspective and find your own truth, living from your heart-space."
Irene H.
"The most transformative truths are often the simplest—but they only come alive when felt, not just understood. And in this intensive, I felt them deeply."
Lauren D.
"Atousa is an amazing healer and retreat facilitator! She is a joy to work with and held safe space for healing for all the participants. A beautiful, soulfully healing experience was had by all. Do yourself a favor and connect with her in any way you can"
