The Queen's Tea Party 2026 

For our fourth year, we're curating a program for women which includes intentionally planned one-on-one attention, guided meditation sound healing, narrative therapy, spoken word, intuitive arts therapy, and community building exercises to help combat loneliness and isolation.

​

This signature event is part of our mission to destigmatize mental health needs and seeking care where we provide space open dialogue and shared stories.
