Personal Transformation Intensive (PTI)
A unique, life-altering approach to optimizing inner peace, happiness, health, relationships, professional success and abundance.
Are you looking to accelerate your personal growth?
Do you have a desire for greater joy, health, prosperity, fulfilling relationships or emotional well-being? Have you read self-help books or listened to motivational speakers, but when you try to put what you learn into action, it falls apart shortly after? Have you found that, even with all of your best efforts and intentions, you have settled for less than you truly want out of life?
What is PTI?
Personal Transformation Intensive (PTI) is a series of intensive therapeutic weekend retreats designed to bring together a small, intimate group of people who are committed to their emotional and spiritual growth. Each of us has the ability to access internal resources of strength, wisdom and healing. PTI is not designed to change you, just to let you realize what is already inside of you. Physical wounds heal by themselves, emotional pain does not. We all have memories we try to suppress, unresolved guilt, and past tragedies that we say is all water under the bridge. Our mind can replay our past like a projector in a theatre, when we are alone, randomly and unexpectedly, continuing to haunt us, even decades after. The reality is that much of who you are is shaped in the formative years of your life. During PTI, you will access early-life experiences that have resulted in negative, self-defeating beliefs and subconscious conclusions that you’ve formed about yourself. You will then become aware of how these conclusions have shaped your decisions in life, your relationships, your career and really every aspect of your daily life.
As you release and heal these often lifelong, limiting, self-sabotaging beliefs, you become free to create the life you were meant to live.
PTI is a process for clearing anything that stands between you, your goals and highly joyful living. Far beyond the typical self-help programs or personal development workshops, PTI is a unique, life-altering approach to optimizing inner peace, happiness, health, relationships, professional success and abundance. PTI has proven time and time again to allow its participants to flourish by reaching peace with their past wounds. The PTI program addresses lifelong wellness from a comprehensive mind-body-spirit perspective and integrates Gestalt, Humanistic, Transpersonal and Existential healing approaches using Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy, Integral Breath Therapy, the Mastermind process and Guided Visualization to forge deeper connections in relationship with self, with spirit and others.
What are the benefits?
With yet to see a single participant dropout, our PTI can be a great choice to help you get the ball of mental wellness rolling. Within these five weekends, we will enhance your internal resources and external support to explore, identify and eliminate emotional barriers that have previously blocked you from accessing the powerful resources of your Higher Inner-Self. Together we will explore the energies of self-compassion and self-acceptance, as well as the untapped powers of the unconscious mind towards growth.
As you begin to feel safe in a loving, accepting community of like-minded people, you will find that you are able to express your authentic self without fear of judgment. This type of environment allows for a level of healing that one-on-one counseling and therapies cannot.
PTI equips you with the skills to:
- Clear subconscious thoughts that inhibit your happiness and success
- Recognize and heal unhealthy relationship patterns
- Overcome addictive thoughts and behaviors
- Reduce stress, and improve your emotional and physical well-being
- Identify your life purpose
- Achieve greater professional success
- Increase abundance and financial prosperity
- Deepen awareness of your spiritual life

Comments from PTI participants:
For 30 years I was ignoring the pain that I went through in my younger years, I didn’t seek help until I was close to snapping. All that that inner tension that I felt for all this time, I just bottled it up and ignored it because it was easier. PTI has allowed me to not only recognize my past pain and traumas, but to reach a level of peace with my past. I am now able to look back and see what happened is part of who I am and not tense up at those memories. I am now able to accept what happened to me. This newfound acceptance is something that I have never experienced in my whole life, and I have never been as calm or clear headed as I am today, I can’t recommend PTI enough.

PTI has meant everything for me, it has been raw, revealing, and sometimes beyond surprising. PTI has opened my heart to buckets of love. I am now forgiving myself for the feelings that I used to blame myself. I now recognize that my life is complicated, and I’m ok with not being perfect anymore. I feel confident in my ability to respect and forgive myself. What I learned in PTI I will carry with me forever and always.
– Nancy
My life has been profoundly and positively changed. I am walking through the world with more confidence, compassion, strength, and love. I will take what I’ve learned and teach my children how to live in an authentic, fulfilling way, and let them use these tools to expand their own lives. I cannot thank PTI enough.
