Testimonials from Last Year’s Attendees
“OMG! Better Together Retreat 2024 was exactly what I needed. As a therapist in private practice, you can feel isolated from your therapist community. Even as a group practice, we don't have a lot of opportunity to chat and connect at work. This was such a lovely curated space focusing on that missing connection to other professionals. There was zero marketing/networking pressures and I felt like I was able to show up as a human therapist and make real connections with friends.”
— Aryn Thompson, LCSW-S
“Last year, I had the privilege of attending the Better Together 2024 weekend retreat. It was there where I realized we have incredible colleagues who share very similar visions of what mental health should look and feel like. During the retreat, we had time to mingle, opportunity to be creative, and a space to share our experiences! I am forever grateful to Brooke and Camila for hosting such an organized and unforgettable weekend! Can’t wait until the next one!”
— Jennifer Powell, LPC Associate
