Group Care-apy
Group Care-apy is a safe, soulful space for women in midlife who feel stuck, stretched thin, or disconnected. In this small, supportive circle, you’ll find healing through honest conversations, reflection tools, and deep connection—with yourself and others. It’s not just group therapy—it’s care, courage, and community.
“I hesitated joining… but by the end of 3–4 days, I was able to open up and share among a SAFE group of people. It’s all because Joleen created this space for us.” —Lynn

One-On-One Counseling
Sometimes, you just need a safe space to talk it through—with someone who truly listens and helps you find your way forward. In individual counseling (Iowa residents only) or life coaching, we’ll work together to uncover what’s keeping you stuck, rediscover your inner strength, and create meaningful change. Whether you’re facing anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or simply feeling unfulfilled, I’m here to support your healing journey.
“I went from lost, depressed, and without purpose, to happy and enjoying each day. Joleen has changed my world—and she can change yours too!” — Kathy
When you’re ready to feel like you again, I’m here.
Retreats
Sometimes, the most powerful way to move forward is to pause. Courageous Life retreats offer a sacred space to unplug from the noise, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and rediscover your worth. Surrounded by support and serenity, you’ll experience rest, reflection, and real growth.
As Lisa shared:
“I needed to get away to “find myself.” A friend said, ‘come with me to Iowa on a retreat.’ I didn’t know what to expect—but meeting Joleen was exactly what I needed. She taught me to treat myself like my own best friend—important and loved.”
Come retreat—and return to who you truly are. Contact us for our next retreat dates.
