Wellspring Retreat and Resource Center is a residential treatment center for those who have been abused in relationships, cults, situations of trauma, and by destructive therapeutic alliances resulting in emotional betrayal and/or physical harm. We offer hope and help through a program of counseling, education, and retreat.

The work of Wellspring is continuing, despite the death of our founder and director, Dr. Paul Martin (June 28, 1946 - August 14, 2009). It is not the same without Paul, but we are still operating to help those who need our services. We are currently working on solidifying our new team. Your continued support of this landmark service would be most appreciated at this time.

 

SUMMARY OF SERVICES

Since its beginning in 1986, Wellspring provides a unique, professional, two-week program of counseling and care in a safe, peaceful, and scenic location.
New Program Options:
1. Wellspring now offers a five-day intensive program. It is much the same as the traditional two-week program and costs half the price. This intensive program includes daily sessions with a licensed mental health counselor. It also includes workshops with a cult specialist.
2. Weekend counseling can be considered on an individual basis.
