Andrews & Associates Counseling To Host First-Ever Relationship Retreat

MANHATTAN, Kan. - March 30, 2023 - PRLog -- Andrews & Associates Counseling, a multi-specialty mental health practice best known for providing mental health and relationship support services, will host its first-ever couples retreat this April.

The Wild, Wonderful Love Relationship Retreat is a two-part event that will be held on Friday, April 14 from 6-8 p.m. and Saturday, April 15 from 9 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the Milford Lake Event Center at Acorns Resort in Milford, KS. This retreat is open to all couples who are in a committed relationship.

Andrews & Associates Counseling will present information representing a culmination of 40 years of field experience and research during the retreat. Through a series of educational modules and activities, couples will learn about topics including:

• Self-awareness and attachment styles.
• Trust, safety, vulnerability, and connection.
• Communication and conflict.
• Roles and responsibilities.
• Intimacy and sex.

The retreat will be led by Stephanie Wick, Ph.D., who is a licensed clinical marriage and family therapist, a licensed clinical addictions counselor, and the owner of Andrews & Associates Inc. She will be joined by licensed marriage and family therapists Gennifer Leach and Brooke Thornbrugh, who are independent practitioners that see couples regularly at Wick's practice.

"Relationships are wild, wonderful, frustrating, exhilarating, and exhausting. They certainly aren't easy, and unfortunately for us, love isn't always enough to make them work," said Wick. She explained that despite good intentions, relationships can suffer when they are not prioritized or if couples become complacent.

Through the education and tools introduced at the Wild, Wonderful Love Relationship Retreat, Wick aims  to provide couples with information and strategies to help enhance and maintain a fulfilling relationship. The retreat is designed to be inclusive to couples of all backgrounds and orientations who are at any stage of a committed relationship.

Retreat registration includes all presentation materials and refreshments for both days, plus lunch on Saturday. Additional services including optional overnight accommodations, meals, and recreation activities may be purchased separately through Acorns Resort.
