Even as the research and evidence in support of Mindfulness Practice grows, the word Mindfulness has been reduced to a series of scripts and buzzwords in many contexts.

MBSR can take you beyond all that, to access the personal and professional benefits of Mindfulness Practice, and transform your understanding of and relationship to both Mindfulness Practice and Stress from the ground up .

MBSR provides the structure, expertise and community that empowers you to access and embody the skills and practices of Mindfulness for yourself and for your clients.

This is exclusively for mental health professionals who:

  • Are seeking real relief from Burnout or Compassion Fatigue

    Are interested in deepening their mindfulness skills and adding professional depth to leading mindfulness with clients.

MBSR At A Glance:

  • Over 8-weeks, we meet weekly, as a group of 10 - 15 participants, for 2 hours.

  • In class, we dive deep into experiential practice, inquiry, and didactic learning to connect with your own inner resources and capacity for resilience, healing, and growth.​

  • Between each class, you are encouraged to practice daily and complete brief assignments designed to integrate mindfulness into your daily life. ​

  • Between classes 6 and 7, we spend a full day (9am - 4pm) together, mostly in silence, for an extended period of mindfulness in the spirit of a retreat.

  • As we wrap up, you will be invited to continue the practice by joining an ongoing community of practice who meet weekly to meditate together and support ongoing practice.
