Now Interviewing for Winter '26 Group Members! 'Creatively Being' is a small therapy group for women wanting support and clarity around life's stressors. This process group is limited to 5 members, allowing for therapeutic change through an affordable and accessible model. Grounded in expressive and creative principles, we’ll use improvisation, storytelling, role play, and somatic awareness to explore the many roles we currently play and the ones waiting to emerge, inviting reconnection to the self through imagination, dialogue, presence, and community. This isn’t about performing or perfecting, but simply being.

Expect: reflection, laughter, vulnerability, creative processing, insight, and a supportive circle of women.

Santa Fe Women’s retreat: ‘Cultivating joy as a resource’

Santa Fe, NM | May 6-10th, 2026

(Retreat includes all lodging, meals, programming, and materials; does not include transportation)

Creative Women Retreats provides unique, restorative, and transformative retreat experiences. Our next offer takes place in the glorious bloom of Santa Fe this spring (over Mother’s Day weekend). In a world with relentless demands on caretakers, we invite you to take some time to reset in an incredibly unique, vibrant, and restorative setting with a small group of like-minded women. We’ll be exploring the theme of ‘joy’ - how we can access and sustain it, and what’s in the way - as a resource for these times. If you could use some nurture, creative engagement, and thoughtful community, join us in Santa Fe for a week of art-making, creative arts therapy workshops, gentle yoga, guided meditation, delicious food and stunning nature. A chance to truly pause and reset.

CWR retreats are designed and hosted by Hollis & Isabel - two licensed creative arts therapists who love working with groups of women!
