Aangan

a shared courtyard

29th April – 3rd May, 2026

 

Aangan is imagined as a shared courtyard — a space to arrive, sit, and be together. Set in the lap of the Himalayas, this retreat exists to offer therapists a pause from constant holding, doing, and performing, and a chance to return to simply being.

Rooted in the values of community, empathy, care, and personhood, Aangan responds to a growing need for spaces where therapists are not required to be experts, helpers, or containers. Over five slow days, we come together to reflect on our relationship with our work, reconnect with ourselves, and meet one another beyond roles, labels, and productivity.

This retreat is not a training, supervision space, or therapy programme. Instead, it is a reflective and experiential gathering that makes room for play, laughter, rest, and ease.

There will be shared meals, experiential workshops, games, long conversations, quiet moments, and time to simply exist — to be human, not “on,” and not in therapist mode.

Held gently by the mountains, Aangan offers a balance of structured reflection and unstructured time, nature-based grounding and community connection. There is no pressure to fix, achieve, or optimise — only an invitation to slow down, listen, and feel held.

Aangan is a small, intimate retreat for therapists seeking softness, meaningful connection, and space to breathe — together
Who is this for?

Aangan is for practising therapists who identify as female, are currently engaged in therapeutic work and are looking for space to slow down, reflect, rest, and reconnect — with themselves, their work, and a small community of peers. You are welcome to join if you have just started working as a therapist and are looking for community!

This retreat may be a good fit if you:

  • Are a practising therapist or counsellor
  • Are open to reflective, experiential, and community-based spaces
  • Would like time to be human, playful, and at ease — not “on” as a therapist
  • Value connection, empathy, and shared presence
