Exclusive mental health retreat in Mexico.

Immerse in nature.

Situated inside a private jungle sanctuary, you’ll stay in one of three 5,000 sqft treehouse villas with views of the Pacific. Penthouse Suites with ocean and jungle views as well as pool-side and jungle-side rooms available. We also offer a modestly priced option for those willing to share a room with others. All rooms open to nature and have access to a private plunge pool, a common pool, and lounge areas.

Our casually luxurious resort is the ideal space for a mental health retreat in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The space matters because being engulfed by nature boosts your melatonin, endorphin, serotonin, and dopamine production, all of which puts you in a calm and positive mood, alleviates stress and anxiety, reduces depression, and gives your brain much-needed downtime.

Eat well.

Our menu is 100% vegan using mostly whole foods and designed to provide approximately 30% calories from protein, 20% from fats and 50% from carbohydrates.

Our priority in the kitchen is to serve food that physically nourishes your body but we also value the emotional nourishment that food provides. That’s why we mix the right ingredients, produce, herbs, and spices to maximize the nutritional properties of food while also making sure we combine them into beautiful and delicious creations.

Life-changing work.

Some people spend months or years in therapy. We believe a focused period consisting of frequent gestalt psychotherapy sessions, informative workshops, and supporting therapies over a relatively short period of time can be an effective method of accelerating healing. This is what we do at Beyond: intensive gestalt psychotherapy.

To be clear, this is not a vacation. You will laugh, but you will also cry. This also isn't one of those rigid mental health retreats for depression or anxiety. You'll discover coping strategies, but more importantly, you'll leave feeling enriched and fulfilled in ways that go beyond what a typical treatment room can offer. You will experience beautiful things, but you will also have to revisit uncomfortable memories. If you’re coming because you’re being told to come, you will fail. This is for the brave. For those who are tired of the way things have been and are ready to start a new chapter. To do so requires you to be present and do the work.

Ready for that new chapter?

Immersive work.

While psychotherapy is the foundation of Transform Retreat, the retreat includes a variety of talks, workshops, assignments, and supporting therapies necessary to help you reach the ambitious goal of transforming your life in the short span of 29 days. These include approximately 11 workshops, 4 talks, 3 movies and a variety of therapies including sound bath, ice bath, art therapy and more. Participation in these exercises potentializes the work done in group and individual psychotherapy.

Move your body.

Complementary to your state of mind and emotions is movement and taking care of your body. As a yoga retreat center, we understand well the benefits of modalities like yoga, meditation, and breath work on your mental and emotional states. This is why you will be practicing nearly on a daily basis as part of your mental health retreat experience.

Feel new again.

A big part of our mental health retreat is spending time in nature - in the sun, at the beach, in the jungle - not just at the resort. Your mental health retreat in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, includes a guided tour of Los Arcos National Marine Park, where you’ll snorkel among tropical fish and the occasional sea turtle, manta ray, whale, or dolphin making an appearance. You’ll also be guided on a hike to Quimixto Waterfall, a remote island-like destination with a population of 300 that can only be reached by boat. You’ll also receive a massage and participate in a sound bath + Yoga Nidra session.
