Private Retreat / HomestayNew
★★★★★
We are a mother and daughter who attended a private retreat at Sacred Counsel. Alexa and Luke welcomed us into their lovely home and made us feel deeply cared for and supported throughout the ceremonies and integration. Our days were filled with nourishing food, music, rituals, hikes, and rich conversations. Luke and Alexa each bring an essential element to the ceremonies; they complement one another with wisdom and creativity. We left the powerful and beautiful experience feeling a deeper connection with each other and to ourselves. Our hearts are full of gratitude and love.
Counseling
★★★★★
Working with Alexa has given me something I had been searching for without quite knowing how to name it: a way of bringing my mind, body, and spirit into the same conversation. As a Middle Eastern woman raised in a religious and conservative environment, much of what I understood as “spirituality” felt like a set of rules rather than a source of nourishment. Alexa not only understands the cultural and familial context I come from, but also works with it with real sensitivity. She has helped me rediscover spirituality in a way that feels wholesome and grounding, without asking me to abandon reason, intellect, or the realities of everyday life. With her, I’ve learned to make space for both the part of me that needs things to make sense and the part that needs to feel, listen, and trust. And what makes it all so powerful is Alexa herself: her compassion, care, and presence are palpable. I feel genuinely seen and understood. Working with her has helped me become more integrated; not less rational or more spiritual, but more fully myself.

Alexa and Luke were very welcoming in making sure we all felt safe and comfortable during our healing journey. They were extremely helpful guiding us through the whole process.
CounselingFeatured
Alexa is one of those rare people who instantly feels like a lifelong friend. There's something magical about the way she listens, reflects, and gently guides you—like a therapist, a spiritual teacher, and a fairy godmother all wrapped into one. I've shared things with her that I've never felt safe enough to say out loud before. She meets everything with grace, compassion, and a depth of wisdom that still amazes me. What I love most is how she weaves her knowledge into every session—whether it's a book, a podcast, or just the perfect insight to help something click. After every conversation with her, I walk away with a deeper understanding of myself. She has helped me process, heal, and grow in ways I didn't even realize I needed. I'm so deeply grateful to have found her.

I can't express my deep gratitude enough. You and Alexa have created something truly beautiful. Your personal connection with everyone and your deep commitment to your passion are clear, and allows a beautiful container for exploration and healing.

This has been one of the most healing weeks I've ever had in my life.
Group RetreatVideo
I feel like it's probably the most important thing I've ever done as a human being myself and for our marriage.

If you're a health care worker, you unintentionally absorb things from your patients and you have to be able to let that go.
Group Retreat
Amazing & Authentic. The most caring group leaders I've come across that put a tremendous effort into everyone's participation.
Group RetreatVideo
This is without a doubt the best experience of my life.
Group RetreatVideo
The other people that are strangers to you really become part of a bond that is unexplainable.
Group RetreatVideo
But even going through the traumatic things that I needed to release, I felt safe and secure with everyone here.
Group RetreatVideo
Gosh, man, it is like no other experience I've ever had in my life.

Plant medicine didn't show me what I wanted to see. It showed me what I needed to see.

I feel like every cell in my body has been rejuvenated and regenerated.

I can think my way out of everything. I could not think my way out of how to make my life different.

Retreat1:1 Support
Beautiful souls offering deep wisdom, guidance and presence! Definitely recommend working with them for a retreat, 1:1 support or any other way you can!

The one word I would say to describe like how I feel about Sacred Counsel's trusting, very trustworthy.
Khungi 2026Video
I don't know if I'll, you know, ever talk to these people again, but I love them so much.
Khungi 2026Video
You guys are the team that has made me feel the safest. And I think that when you feel the safest, you can do the deepest healing.
Khungi 2026Video
I have gone through periods of fairly intense isolation, and I was able to find community through both participants and also the facilitators.
Khungi 2026Video
Walk your way in and then walk your way out and no one else will do that for you.
Khungi 2026Video
Give yourself some gratitude some grace some yeah some just a little bit of love.
Group RetreatVideo
The style is naturally organic it's organic it's heart-centered.
Group RetreatVideo
I have lost my husband last year and I started on a spiritual journey to reconnect myself with this person that I briefly touched when I was younger.
Ceremony Week
I need to share the tremendous experience I had working with Luke and Alexa. Between the online pre-work/coaching to the week of ceremonies, with facilitation and integration of all the experiences; I whole heartedly recommend anyone seeking a way to self improvement and truly a better, more fulfilling life for yourself—work with Luke and Alexa. You will not regret anything.
Group RetreatVideo
If you're looking for learning and starting a process of personal healing, this is the place.
Group RetreatVideo
I came here afraid, but I'm leaving here not afraid at all.
Group RetreatVideo
The medicine is one journey, but connecting with the people it's another journey and the two together is just life transformational.
Group RetreatVideo
I had some built up pain, pain that I was ignoring, things that I didn't want to tackle that I was burying.
Group RetreatVideo
It's just so clear how experienced Luke and Alexa are in doing this.
Group RetreatVideo
When you talk about it being a safe space I mean it is it's obvious.
Group RetreatVideo
I don't know how it could have been done better than my first one yet this one superseded that.
Group RetreatVideo
This place was for me was kind of like the last house on a dead end street.
Plant Medicine
Luke and Alexa are two of the most loving and down to earth people I've met in my adult life. I've worked with them many times and trust them completely. They have a deep respect for natural plant medicine, Mother Earth, and for everyone they meet. They have integrity and a natural ability to hold space.
Group RetreatVideo
This week has been overwhelming in my opinion and I mean overwhelming uh in a very positive way.
Group Retreat
I felt open to participate and to let people know me, which scared me for a long time.
Group Retreat
It felt like we had more progress in like 60 minutes than we had in eight years of marriage.
Group Retreat
It's absolutely going to restore to you what initially made you go into medicine.
Group Retreat
Who am I to expect something from a sacred medicine?
Group Retreat
You will feel lighter you will feel liberated you will have more clarity.
Group Retreat
And I held space with grief that I never felt that I had the permission to grieve before.
Group Retreat
Luke and Alexa are some of the most loving and beautiful humans I've ever met. Their level of care and authenticity is truly unique, as well as their knowledge and experience. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for genuine support in their process of life, healing and evolution.
Group Retreat
I just feel at peace I just feel I feel an ease that I haven't felt in a long time.
Group Retreat
And I learned how to forgive others, and I learned how to forgive myself.
Group Retreat
I have sat with many medicines for many hours and many different facilitators and nothing comes close to this experience.
Group Retreat
A space like this gives you the opportunity to just let everything go.
Group Retreat
I think the key takeaway for me is to love myself a bit more and some self-care.
Private Retreat
Just like I develop trust in Luke and Alexa it was sort of their guidance to develop trust in the medicine.
Khungi 2026
My experience with the medicine got in my head in a way that it got right to the root of the problem.
Khungi 2026
You guys have taught me how to believe in myself that I can handle the journey and that I can come out on the other side.
Couples · Private
Luke and Alexa facilitated a private [ceremony] experience for the two of us, which unexpectedly took us deep into our relationship. With their help in preparation, ceremony, and subsequent integration, we had couple's therapy involving deep, and sometimes painful insights and, gratefully, much more understanding and growth as an outcome. The set and setting, including breathwork, meditation, and all of their personal touches were amazing. We heartily recommend they hold space for you.
Khungi 2026
I think you'll find a highly receptive container that knows how to catch, how to read subtle signals, how to respect your boundaries to a degree that is truly remarkable.
Khungi 2026
It didn't matter what the medicine was I knew this was going to be an incredible event and I wasn't wrong.
Khungi 2026
It's not going to solve it but it's going to start that process of you consciously thinking about what needs to change.
Group Retreat
If you guys were being a team I would follow you anywhere.
Group Retreat
I know in theory that we are all connected. But to feel the connection is so profoundly beautiful.
Group Retreat
We are in the same boat and we all need each other.
Group Retreat
So now I'm going into life to live life, not just exist or not just to survive.
Group Retreat
I've been able to see things from a new perspective, a new light, connecting with spirit, energy, Mother Earth.
Counseling
Luke is a wellspring of wisdom — a beacon of positive energy, radiant light, and healing vibrations. His presence is deeply calming, and I always leave our conversations and interactions feeling grounded and at peace. I have nothing but love and gratitude for Luke. Meeting him has been a true blessing, and I cherish the memories we've shared. It's truly an honor to know him.
Group Retreat
An invitation for levity and some joyfulness with like a little bit of challenge in there too.
Group Retreat
We're probably like potentially lifelong friends now.
Group Retreat
The elevation, the euphoria, there was no ceiling. It was just unlimited.

Expect to be taken care of to be supported to be heard guided but most of all to be loved.

My expectations feel so infinitely small compared to what I got from this.
Group Retreat
You don't get what you want you get what you need.
21-Day Detox
During Luke and Alexa's 21-day metabolic detox, I experienced many profound and surprising results. I expected the physical changes, but the detox also "loosened up" some intense emotions my body had been holding around a difficult relationship I was struggling with. Luke's guidance and Alexa's counsel shifted BIG emotional energy, helping me heal some very deep wounds in my heart. I encountered my shadow-self and gained a greater understanding of who I am, liberating me from my fear-driven ego so I can live more fully in harmony and love. I highly recommend the guided detox program to anyone not quite ready for the plant medicine plunge.
Group Retreat
I finally found that peace and joy in my heart and I can't wait to take it back to my life.

My intention when I came on this event was to prepare for myself for being completely unprepared.
Group Retreat
Amina, Luke, Alexa, and the whole team were intensely supportive and helped to create an atmosphere of acceptance and respect that set the stage for an unparalleled retreat experience. No detail was left unchecked and no need, either individual or group, went unfulfilled. It was an experience I will remember to my dying day.
Private Retreat
The thing about trust is, it only works when it goes both ways.
Khungi 2026
I found that I had more options, that I felt like I had more control over how I was going to feel or what I would get out of any situation that I could choose.
Khungi 2026
It's a gentle way to be introduced to this work and I wish I would have started with you guys.
Khungi 2026
If you're willing to put in the work, I think you'll find a degree of relief or possibly even full healing.

Being in the dark in the room and listening to the sounds and the breaths and just everything, you know, the tears, the laughter. I mean, it's something else, man.

I got to hang around with seven new people that are now part of my body.

I can't tell you how wrong I was about every single one.

Luke and Alexa provide attentive care and nurture you through the entire stay and the ceremonies.

Even if it's hard, I trust that I'm going to be able to get through it with the tools that you guys have provided, and I have not experienced that anywhere else.
Khungi 2026
We've carried friends forward from one retreat to the next, and that has been tremendously powerful for me.

I was informed that perhaps what I was doing wasn't that, which was good.

You guys handled every, every little challenge that people had with grace.
Repeat Guest
When I think of everything Luke & Alexa have done for me I swell up with tears of joy. If you are looking for healing, rest, and celebration or are just curious to see the great beauty of these medicines I can not recommend Luke and Alexa highly enough. They have helped guide my closest friends and I into experiences of monumental beauty. Through music, love and laughter I found every experience to be a beautiful celebration of life and I remain eternally grateful for their guidance and protection. I cannot wait to sit again in the safe and loving environment they create.

They handle everything with such grace and such maturity and safety.
