“I’ve worked with Mel and Elisa in healing/journey spaces many times over the last few years and I’m deeply grateful for each and every session. They create a beautiful and safe environment backed with years of training, expertise, and most importantly, real-AF life experience. They meet each person where they are with openness and intention. It’s much easier, in my opinion, to dive into our deeper shadows and find our brighter lights when we know we’re in a safe place devoid of any judgment. The sparkles, music, ginger tea, and plethora of lovely floor pillows are delightful additions as well.”

“I’ve never really identified as a spiritual person, and I hadn’t worked with Mel or Elisa before attending a retreat at Joytown. I arrived feeling like I was jumping straight into the deep end—and part of me expected to feel like a total outsider or “too normal” for something like this. But what I found was an environment that was incredibly warm, grounded, and welcoming. The group spanned all walks of life—parents, veterans, professors, people from all kinds of backgrounds—and I never once felt like I didn’t belong.”

“Mel and Elisa exude warmth and attunement as space holders and companions into the depths. I've never experienced anything quite like the magic that consistently unfolds in the fields they craft, and I've never felt so safe leaning into such transformational and life-giving work.”
