Welcome to Nurturing the Heart

with the Brain in Mind

Currently, ask participants to test for COVID the night before we begin each gathering. As conditions change, our safety measures will evolve as well.  We would be glad to talk with you about your individual situation. Please email the teacher of the class you want to sign up for to have a conversation. Thank you for your kind understanding.

We are delighted to announce that we are expanding our teaching group this year and next, with Vanessa, Mari, Karen, and Dan joining Jo and Bonnie. They are people who have deeply immersed themselves in Interpersonal Neurobiology and Relational Neuroscience for decades, embodying it, living it in their personal as well as professional lives. Our community is so fortunate to have these wise and wonderful people sharing their hearts and their wisdom.

Karen Welch, LMFT and Dan Keady, LMFT, with decades of deep study and practice between them, will be facilitating the Year-Long IPNB Immersion together in 2023 You can read their biographies by clicking on their names.

Vanessa Timmons, healer, life coach, writer, social justice activist, and advocate brings 35 years of service and support to the healing class she is offering:  Journaling as a Conversation with Our Inner World.

Bonnie Badenoch, LMFT, and Jo Hadlock-King, LICSW will be teaching Therapy as Spiritual Practice. Many who have come to the year-long training have expressed an interest in the connection between spirituality and the work we do, and this 3-day retreat will spend time in that tender territory.
