All About This Workshop
Working from a clinical model based on trauma and addiction, partners impacted by the destruction of sexual compulsion will have the opportunity to begin healing from intimate betrayal. Developed in collaboration with Claudia Black, PhD, Meadows Senior Fellow and author of Deceived: Facing Sexual Betrayal, Lies, and Secrets and Intimate Treason, participants will learn about the biology and behavior of sex and love addiction and will explore their own relational templates.
This is an experientially based workshop that will assist partners to move through their grief and loss, break free from the attachment to fantasy, and enhance emotional self-regulation. Developing internal, external, and sexual boundaries, participants will learn how to move from a position of victimization to personal empowerment. This workshop creates a safe and compassionate environment that will provide a path to healing that gives voice to the partners’ truth as they travel on their own journey in recovery.
Cost: $3,950 (Workshops are private pay, but most are now eligible for reimbursement through most insurance plans.)

According to local legend, the clear, dry air of the Sonoran Desert has healing powers. For nearly a decade, the land we call home has served as a place of healing, and Rio Retreat Center at The Meadows continues that legacy, helping participants grow in their recovery, find lasting healing, and achieve new levels of wellness and self-discovery.
Take A Look Around
Famous for its breathtaking landscapes and tranquil beauty, the Wickenburg area rests on the northern edge of the Sonoran Desert, just south of Arizona’s mountainous country. When you arrive at Rio Retreat Center, we believe you’re entering sacred ground. The peaceful, natural setting has a long history of healing and continues to create an atmosphere conducive to contemplative work and self-examination.
This historic dude ranch from the 1920s retains its rustic feel while being updated for modern-day living and comfort. You may see our horses grazing in the meadow or someone walking our labyrinth. Our campus is also shared by local wildlife, including mule deer, a fox family, roadrunners and great-horned owls. Everywhere you look, the tranquility of Rio Retreat Center reinforces a mindset of recovery.
