Learn to Regain Control of Your Body Again
Does this sound familiar?
Do you feel like you’re doing everything “right,” but it doesn’t seem to stick?
Are you tired of holding everything together for everyone else and longing to finally be seen, heard, and emotionally supported?
Do you barely recognize yourself anymore or feel out of control?
Are you wondering why you’re so irritable and why the things that used to work no longer do?
Are you craving deeper, more meaningful connection?
Do you want to understand your body more and how to support it?
Are unresolved emotions starting to come to the surface?
You’re not crazy. You may be experiencing hormonal changes.
This retreat was created to support you through this transitional period.
To help you regain a sense of control, understand how to work with your body,
and come away knowing yourself in ways you may not have expected.
Here is What to Expect:

Group work: A guided process where the support of others helps your nervous system feel safer, seen, and more connected
Psychodrama: A guided process where you “act out” real-life scenarios, like setting a boundary or asking for help, so your body can practice and integrate changes that talking alone can’t achieve
Parts work: A method that helps you connect with the different “parts” of yourself (like the inner child) so they can be understood, supported, and integrated
Fascia + lymph movement sessions
Breathwork and somatic practices
Perimenopause/Menopause education
Workshops, sound baths, vibroacoustic bed, and restorative experiences
Small group work: Limited to 10 participants, intentionally curated to support safety, connection, and group flow.

Get support and accountability
Deepen group connections
Integrate new patterns and boundaries
Learn how to apply the retreat tools to your actual daily life
Note: these calls will not be recorded to ensure the privacy of the group
The Why:
We created this retreat to bridge the gap between psychotherapy and physical therapy, because real healing during hormonal changes requires both understanding the mind and working directly with the body.
Most women are offered fragmented care that manages symptoms but doesn’t help change actually integrate. This retreat is the experience we couldn’t find: a truly trauma-informed, deeply supportive space to understand your body’s changes, feel seen without judgment, and restore trust in yourself. It’s intentionally small and carefully curated, because lasting transformation happens in spaces where safety, depth, and individualized attention are protected.
The Promise:
Gain a clearer understanding of what’s changing in your body during perimenopause, and why.
Learn practical, realistic ways to support nervous system regulation and restore a greater sense of safety.
Leave feeling more confident in how to support yourself moving forward.
Who is this for?
You’re on your healing journey and craving deeper support and connection.
You’ve been doing individual therapy but now want to process, feel, and grow in community with other supportive women.
You’re open to a mind-body-soul approach that honors both science and intuition.
You’re seeking a safe, truly trauma informed and nurturing space where your story is met with compassion.
You’re ready to share space and experience the healing that happens when women gather.
You’re a woman or non-binary person in menopause or going through perimenopause (or suspect you are, ages 35+) and want to learn what your body is really trying to tell you.
You’re tired of doing it all alone — you’re ready to heal your independence wound, release the pressure, and finally lean on others safely.
You don’t just want to feel better — you want to truly understand your body.
What you’re going to learn:
You’ll learn how to understand your body better in perimenopause and menopause
the signals, patterns, and physiology behind your symptoms, and how to work with your body instead of fighting it.
You’ll learn how to set boundaries that feel safe and begin to understand how to connect your mind to your body
so your nervous system actually supports the change.
You’ll learn how to ask for help and receive support
without guilt, shutdown, or the “I’ll just handle it myself” reflex.
You’ll learn practical nervous system regulation tools
you can use in real moments of overwhelm, activation, or shutdown.
You’ll learn how to release stored tension through fascia + lymph work
so your body can process emotions, and hormonal shifts more easily.
You’ll learn how to support your liver and gut
to reduce bloating, fatigue, irritability, and inflammation during perimenopause.
You’ll learn how to reconnect with your pelvic floor
to help you understand the changes happening during perimenopause and feel empowered—sexually, emotionally, and in your daily pelvic-floor habits.
You’ll learn how to shift from people-pleasing to self-leadership
using group work, psychodrama, and somatic practice.
You’ll learn how to build deeper, safer relationships
with like-minded people because healing doesn’t happen in isolation.
You’ll learn how to integrate this into daily life, realistically
through 8 weeks of continued support, reflection, and accountability.

Facilitators
Dr. Mary Grimberg PT, DPT, OCS
Dr. Mary Grimberg is a pelvic floor and orthopedic physical therapist and the owner of ResilientRx, an integrative physical therapy practice in Austin, TX. With over 14 years of clinical experience and her own early transition into perimenopause after overcoming cancer, Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, at 33, she brings both professional depth and lived experience to her work.
She is board certified in orthopedics, a former orthopedic residency faculty member, a continuing education instructor for movement professionals, and a mentor to clinicians across every stage of their careers. Her training spans from the Embody Lab (with Gabor Maté, Peter Levine), Stecco Fascial Manipulation, and pelvic floor training through Women’s Health Training Associates, Pelvic Guru Academy and Herman & Wallace.
She brings a trauma-informed lens to all of her clinical care, teaching, and mentorship as she herself has worked through CPTSD.
She helps people navigate perimenopause and menopause by regulating the nervous system and addressing the whole person through a mind-body-soul lens. She teaches that our bodies are always sending messages and that learning to listen and recognize patterns is how we shift the narrative.
Dr. Mary hosts the TMI Talk with Dr. Mary podcast, where she blends science, real talk, and nervous-system–friendly wisdom. Her mission is to reshape the way we understand perimenopause by bridging solid research with empowering, accessible tools that help women recognize their body’s patterns and regain control of their health.
She is also a TEDx Speaker—The Hidden Language of Perimenopause. Her talk breaks down how to decode the signals your body sends during hormonal transitions.

Her approach focuses on transformative healing using the Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM) – a revolutionary treatment approach she discovered while specializing in complex trauma and dissociation.
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) in Texas, Morgan also serves as a board-approved clinical supervisor. Her specialized trauma credentials include becoming a level two Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP-II), EMDR certification through EMDRIA, and certification in the Trauma Conscious Yoga Method.

Morgan has facilitated a most profound and healing journey for me through CRM. Our work together has been most rewarding, and my perspective on myself, the trauma I’ve experienced, and my past has changed entirely for the better.

We use an application process so we can understand your needs, your history, and your goals. Because this retreat involves nervous system work, emotional processing, and group healing, it’s crucial that we create a safe container for everyone. The application helps us ensure the retreat is appropriate, supportive, and well-matched to each participant. Because of this we cannot accept everyone.
-
We’re unable to offer refunds within 60 days of the retreat start date.
Retreat spaces require significant upfront costs to reserve the location, chef, lodging, and facilitation team. When a spot is held, it also prevents someone else from attending.We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance in case an emergency prevents you from joining. This helps protect your investment and gives you peace of mind.

If you’re over 35 and this retreat speaks to you, you’re welcome to join—whether you’re before perimenopause, in perimenopause, or post-menopause. What matters most is that you feel called to this space.
