About the Private Practice Intensive Space

We have partnered with Our Majestic Place, a micro-retreat center in northern Michigan. We help leadership teams that want to make a difference in the world and get on the same page. 

 

This private home will be entirely yours. It is on 15 acres of private old-growth forest, a private lake, and ample space indoors and outdoors for your intensive. Just a few of the highlights:

 

  • Campfire pit looking over Lake Julian
  • Outdoor games and space
  • Four bedroom, three bath micro-retreat center (The house sleeps 8: two twin beds, one king, two queens, so you could bring partners as well)
  • One mile from a public fresh water beach
  • On Leelanau Peninsula, home of the Sleeping Bear Sand Dunes National Lakeshore (voted most beautiful place in America by Good Morning America), 20 award winning wineries, and hundreds of miles of hiking trails.
 

Leelanau County in Michigan is home to some of the most beautiful old-growth forests in the state, making it the perfect destination for stressed-out therapists looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Imagine sitting on the shore of a serene lake, surrounded by towering trees that seem to stretch endlessly into the sky. As you walk through the forest, your senses are awakened by the fresh scent of pine and the sounds of birds singing in the canopy above.

 

In Leelanau County, you can wander freely through miles of pristine forest, taking in the beauty of nature at your own pace. Whether you prefer the challenge of hiking over rough terrain or the tranquility of a leisurely stroll, the old-growth forests of Leelanau County have something for everyone.

So why not take a break from the stresses of modern life and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Leelanau County? With its stunning landscapes and serene atmosphere, it’s the perfect place to rejuvenate your body, mind, and soul.
