retreat venue that feels right to you
Convenient - Saturdays/Sundays/Mondays
Bespoke - tailored to your goals and situation

Couples
Refresh
For long term couples, Immersives reawaken delight and appreciation of one another. Rediscovering deep admiration, being fully present and connected in a dedicated space leads to a renewed intimacy, sensuality, joy, and shared vision. Whether you're celebrating a new chapter, preparing for a life transition, or simply feeling the need to slow down and reflect, your immersive will be a wonderful journey. Many couples describe the experience as “remarkably bonding” and use them as a form of relational maintenance and celebration.
Healing
For couples after a difficulty, Immersives help you navigate present-moment crises or bring you relief from the ache of past betrayals.
Clarity
For couples making a big decision or contemplating divorce, Immersives focus on critical decision making (continuing a start-up, moving for a new opportunity, buying a certain home, having another child or choosing to terminate). If the critical decision is about divorce, please click here.
​
Time
For busy couples juggling full schedules, weekly therapy can feel unrealistic, fragmented or too slow to create meaningful progress. Immersive sessions offer the equivalent of 10 weeks of therapy in a single experience—and often with greater impact. Many couples choose to follow up with periodic Zoom sessions to maintain momentum.​​​​
Families
You might work with Julia to address a clear challenge —whether it’s resolving a conflict, healing from a past hurt, or navigating a recent shift or loss.
​
Others seek support in deepening mutual understanding, releasing long-held resentments, resetting unhelpful patterns, or simply improving day-to-day communication.
Whether facing a breakdown in trust, supporting a family member through a transition, or reconnecting after a period of disconnection, intensives help because they go beyond giving everyone a voice and feeling heard—to help families co-create new possibilities aligned with their values and hopes for the future. The extended time allows for progress that is often difficult to reach in standard weekly sessions. If a family can’t meet for a weekend, Julia meets with each of them (in various configurations) for multiple sessions.



Friends
​Friends do immersives for one of two reasons:
-
To overcome a conflict or challenge in the relationship
-
To support mutual healing
Whether you're moving through a period of transition, processing grief, navigating burnout, or simply seeking to live a more examined life, your immersive provides the spaciousness, guidance, and support needed to move forward with greater clarity and purpose.
Ketamine Therapy
Ketamine therapy can offer you a powerful opportunity for simultaneous insight and emotional release.
For couples, the medication can help you engage together in meaningful therapeutic work that strengthens your bond and deepens mutual understanding. Ketamine promotes a non-anxious conversation.
If you are seeking to deepen self-awareness, explore meaningful life questions and pause for intentional reflection, doing so with friends provides support and greater insight. It can also be deeply meaningful if you wish to engage in the process alongside close friends who want to support each other in your desire for an examined life or for healing.
For those who are committed to healing or self-inquiry, doing this work in community can be both profound and affirming (because a weekend in Sonoma doesn’t have to be about wine!).


What To Expect
Your ketamine session is held in a safe, supportive environment. Julia is present throughout your entire experience, helping you ground and process both during and after the session. The integration work afterward—where you process and make meaning of your insights—is where lasting growth happens. The ketamine experience is greatly influenced by dose and style of administration.
First you will meet with Julia to determine whether this modality is appropriate for you, as she has found it to be deeply beneficial in some cases and not the right fit in others.
Then you will have a medical intake with our doctor who has many years of experience with Ketamine therapy and together you will choose either: lozenge, nasal spray or injection.
Start the Process
Choose a weekend that works best for you (at no cost), especially if your availability is limited.
Text Julia at (510) 290‑9359 or email Audrey at audryadmin@juliawallace.com as soon as possible.to arrange a 15–20 minute call with Julia.
You can book a paid consultation with Julia ($300/hour) via her online calendar.
Julia will design a personalized onboarding plan, which typically includes a few Zoom sessions to start the journey with care and clarity.
