I'm Karen.
I teach healing and helping professionals, educators, coaches, group leaders and activists how to create community and support healing and change with experiential and embodied activities.
Join us for professional development at our learning retreats in
Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
For more than 30 years, I've watched people reach parts of themselves that talk alone could never touch— shift patterns they thought were permanent, find their footing, and build real connection — through approaches like psychodrama and Family Constellations, sand tray and Tarot that engage the whole person, not just the thinking brain.
That experience is what built the Lancaster School of Psychodrama and Experiential Psychotherapies. It's a learning community for professionals who are done with one-size-fits-all slide shows and seeking new ways of working that are embodied, creative and genuinely alive.
Our learning retreats are practical and nourishing — training that builds your skills and fills you up at the same time. You'll leave with tools you can actually use in psychotherapy, coaching, education, consulting, leadership or community activism. Wherever you're coming from, there's a place for you here.
Most importantly, you'll find people — a community of practitioners — who get it.
