"Words cannot even begin to truly express my respect and adoration, but I'll give it a go anyway. It's taken me over 10 years to find this healing home, having tried many other routes prior. I nearly gave up, realizing quite quickly that no one could apparently unlock what seemed to be an internal unsolvable puzzle. Well, now I've never felt so validated. I've never felt so understood. And more importantly, I've never felt so excited about my personal potential in understanding myself and finding my true path and strengths in life despite my past traumas and tribulations. Working with Carrie has been LIFE CHANGING. Aside from one-on-one therapy, I also recently attended my first Discovering What Is Retreat last weekend. I was nervous about how I might feel in a group environment, but I was quite amazed at how quickly I felt safe and how I still felt personally attended to and cared for. I also got to meet another wonderful healer, Tara. I feel like that weekend alone put me leaps and bounds ahead emotionally and spiritually from where I had been just days prior. This place, and their given opportunities, and their beautiful, knowledgeable staff, have made me feel like the strongest version of myself. I feel empowered. For the first time in a long time, rather than feeling scared about what the future may bring, rather than constantly wondering if I'll continue to fall down, to struggle, to hurt...instead I feel capable and exhilarated about "what's next!" Consistently. Happiest. (Realest). Me. Ever. Thank you hOMe" – A.S.
"Some of my most essential healing has been done under the guidance and facilitation of Caroline Culverhouse . Her work has absolutely transformed how I look at and work with my own (and others') bodies and how trauma impacts it all. If you have trauma and are serious about healing and know the power of working in a group AND you like retreats, I highly recommend you check out the program, which mostly occurs a bit outside Philly. And Tara Lynn is co-faciliatting?!? Truly, you'd be so lucky to be with such compassionate, funny, wise women." – J.B
