Gather in Linthicum, Maryland, April 24-26, 2025, for Deepening our Roots: Nurturing the Soul and Growing in Connection. Hosted by ACPE's Psychotherapy Commission at the Maritime Conference Center, this in-person weekend invites therapists, chaplains, clergy, spiritual directors, educators, and all who feel called to this work. We celebrate a spectrum of spiritual orientations, whether situated in a specific tradition, weaving multiple paths, or exploring a new spiritual vocabulary. You are welcome to arrive with clarity, curiosity, questions, or quiet openness.
Learning together will include reflective dialogue, experiential practices, embodied exploration, and meaningful connection. The retreat focus includes deepening inner awareness, strengthening relational roots, honoring cultural and spiritual diversity, practicing embodied presence, supporting professional sustainability, shared learning and reflection, and growing in community and belonging.
