This experiential training explores practical self-care strategies that support nervous system regulation, professional boundaries, ethical decision-making, and long-term resilience in mental health practice. Set aboard a charter boat and island destination in Prince William Sound, this intimate workshop blends continuing education, reflection, nature, and practical tools counselors can use to better care for themselves while continuing to serve clients well.
