This Halloween, join us for a playful-yet-powerful workshop just for therapists. Boundaries & Broomsticks invites you to explore the ethics of self-care and professional use of self, while also experiencing energy protection, Reiki, and sound healing.

We’ll blend reflection, discussion, and experiential practice so you leave feeling both grounded and renewed — ready to face the shadows and keep your own light strong.
