The Welcoming Place, the class location

Most of the in-person trainings sponsored by the Lancaster School of Psychodrama and Experiential Psychotherapies take place at The Welcoming Place, a beautiful and relaxing retreat center for people seeking a respite from daily life.

The landscape emphasizes native plant communities that provide food and habitat for birds, pollinators like butterflies, moths and bees, and wildlife. A walk across the campus provides an immersive nature-based experience, extending into a woodland that offers a network of trails perfect for short hikes and relaxation beneath a shaded tree canopy.

Affordable lodging is available in cottages in the campus "village" for those who want to stay overnight.  The group space and guest houses have free wireless internet access and are accessible to people with disabilities.

The address is: 21 S. 12th St., Akron, Pa. 17501. You may find more pictures, information and directions to the center here.  To make lodging arrangements, contact Karen here.

Some trainings may take place at other locations or are offered online; please read training description carefully to learn of the correct location for your class.
