Thank you for applying for the Elizabeth C. Jennings Guest Spot, to be applied to the Write to Heal Retreat at Civana Wellness Resort & Spa in Carefree, Arizona, May 9-13, 2023 ($4500 value).
Dr. Elizabeth C. Jennings, a beloved psychologist in Madison, Wisconsin, passed away suddenly at the age of 47 in 2018. A deeply intuitive and sympathetic listener, she encouraged authentic expression and offered compassionate and constructive support to her clients. While inspiring others to express themselves, she acknowledged the paradox faced by professionals in the mental health community who often struggled against stigma when seeking support for their own mental health needs. This guest spot aims to encourage one woman's journey as she explores her authentic feelings and freely expresses them using the evidence-based practice of expressive writing.
From May 9-13, 2023, the Guest Spot Beneficiary will receive*:
• Lodging at Civana Wellness Resort & Spa (King, Double Queen, or Double Queen Patio room)
• Access to daily Write to Heal workshops

The WRITE TO HEAL RETREAT IS NOT TREATMENT. The Write to Heal Retreat is neither a clinical nor a medical program. Attendees acknowledge that the retreat team will share personal learnings and opinions which are not to be interpreted as therapeutic advice. The intention of this Write to Heal Retreat is to offer a supportive and informative environment of discovery, with a focus on, but not exclusive to, expressive writing. As such, attendees will, at times, receive prompts or be asked to write about challenging and/or difficult memories which, may, at times, result in painful feelings and emotions. Attendees are responsible for managing their feelings and for participating in the retreat activities to the extent they feel safe and comfortable. Attendees acknowledge that every attendee will have a unique response to the activities, prompts, discussions, and offerings during this multidimensional retreat. Attendees acknowledge that, should they not feel safe or comfortable with or about an activity or a suggestion offered during the retreat, the attendees are responsible for communicating their feelings and are under no obligation to partake or continue with any of the activities offered. Attendees nevertheless acknowledge that no refunds will be extended for any portions of the retreat which attendees choose to decline, withdraw from, or find dissatisfactory. Attendees acknowledge they register and attend this retreat willingly and with the desire to spend time in the company of others who may express their own life challenges and struggles, and that some of the conversations and times of sharing may be difficult or uncomfortable to hear. Despite their personal backgrounds and experiences as professionals, the Write to Heal Retreat team members do not serve in this capacity as doctors, therapists, counselors, or advisors. Their opinions are their own, and Write to Heal attendees acknowledge they may accept or reject the materials, discussions, and suggestions offered during the retreat.
