Our psychologist conducts several small-group workshops as well as one-on-one counseling that can help make your lifestyle commitments stick and enhance your well being.
Many guests appreciate the counseling entitled "What's eating you? Take charge of your feelings and your food." Also very popular are workshops on stress hardiness, managing your moods, improving your relationships with others, and developing a healthy mental outlook, which is a key component in developing a healthy body.
