relational wellness workshops
Transformative bonding experiences for teams, businesses, and organizations
Teams reach their highest potential when each member feels genuinely understood, validated and connected.
Cohesion is not about everyone pretending to be best friends. It’s about developing a strong foundation of mutual understanding and respect and then together striving towards a shared mission.
Our workshops help guide your team in this process of improving communication, developing deeper relationships, and building genuine cohesion, all while strengthening mental health and wellness.
Genuine cohesion
What Sets Us Apart
As Licensed Clinical Professional Counselors with expertise in group therapy, we skillfully guide groups deeper than your typical team-building facilitator. Expect more than just games.
While our workshops are fun and engaging, they are also impactful experiences that forge meaningful connections.
Each workshop is thoughtfully customized to meet the unique needs of your group.
Gallup has conducted extensive research on what drives employee satisfaction, retention, and performance.
The results show:
When employees feel like they have close and meaningful connections at work, it leads to more trust, better handoffs, creative discussions, and higher performing teams.

why connections matter
impact of Belonging
Ernst and Young’s recent study found that today’s employees expect diversity and belonging in the workplace, and are more productive, motivated, and engaged when they feel a sense of belonging and community.

Our relational wellness workshops address this need by creating an environment conducive to open and authentic communication, meaningful interactions, and shared bonding experiences.
We foster a new way of relating that leaves team members feeling seen, appreciated, and connected.
