Private Retreats for Women in Midlife Transition
Volcano & Jackson, California
If you’re in your 40s, 50s, or 60s and feeling the shift — in your body, your energy, your relationships, or your identity — you’re not crazy. You’re changing.
Midlife isn’t a breakdown.
It’s a turning point.
And you don’t have to navigate it alone.
I’m Brandy LaRae. I create private therapeutic retreats and grounded in-office care for women moving through menopause, caregiving fatigue, divorce, reinvention, and that quiet but persistent question: What do I want now?
My work is unhurried.
Intentional.
Intuitive.
Deeply nurturing
Private Overnight Retreats
Volcano, California
My signature offering is a private three-hour or overnight retreat on seven wooded acres in Volcano.
This is not a spa day.
It’s a structured, therapeutic experience designed to help your nervous system soften and your body feel safe again.
You’ll stay in a private guest suite with separate entrance and bath.
You’ll receive skilled, intuitive touch.
You’ll have space to rest afterward — without rushing back into responsibility.
Come alone for a true reset.
Or bring a friend and share the experience in a quiet, intentional way.
This is where women come when they’re done pushing through.
Therapeutic Massage
Jackson, California
If you prefer steady, ongoing support, I offer individualized massage therapy at Global Healing Arts in Jackson.
This is grounded, practical bodywork especially supportive for:
• Perimenopause and menopause
• Chronic discomfort
• Hormonal shifts and sleep disruption
• Caregiver fatigue
• Stress-related tension
• Nervous system regulation
Steady care.
No rush.
No pressure to perform wellness.
About Brandy LaRae
I’m a massage therapist, hypnotherapist, former childbirth educator and doula, mother, and lifelong caregiver.
After years of supporting women through birth and major life transitions, I saw the pattern clearly:
Women know how to hold everything together.
They rarely get held long enough for it to matter.
Essential Elevations is my answer to that.
I don’t stack appointments.
I build in time and space to settle in.
I work slowly and intentionally.
Whether you’re walking into my Jackson office or arriving for a retreat in Volcano, you’re stepping into care that is steady, experienced, and real.
I’m genuinely glad you’re here.
