Tina Brigitini, Psy.Th.D., is the founder of Crystalline Awaken Retreats and has worked in holistic healing and education for more than 25 years. Her work integrates energy therapy, polarity therapy, hypnosis, meditation, breathwork, somatic awareness, and nervous-system regulation.
Her private retreats grew from years of working one-to-one with people navigating grief, caregiving, burnout, major life transitions, and periods when life simply became too much to carry in the same way. Rather than following a rigid program, Tina works with each guest individually, allowing the retreat to unfold around what they need most.
My path into this work began more than 25 years ago with a desire to understand the connection between the body, mind, energy, and the way we experience our lives.
Over the years, that curiosity led me to study energy therapy, polarity therapy, hypnosis, meditation, breathwork, somatic practices, and other approaches to healing and personal change.
But some of my greatest teachers weren't found in a classroom. They were the people I've worked with—and my own experiences with loss, caregiving, change, relationships, and learning when to hold on and when to let go.
Those experiences shaped the way I work today. I don't believe healing follows one formula. I believe people need to be met where they are, listened to carefully, and given the space to discover what they need for themselves.
Each retreat reflects a simple philosophy: meaningful healing requires enough space to slow down, listen, and reconnect with yourself.
I bring together energy therapy, polarity-based touch, meditation, breathwork, somatic awareness, and intuitive insight, choosing what is appropriate for the individual rather than following a predetermined formula.
The retreat is intentionally private so there is time to work deeply, rest when needed, reflect, and allow the experience to unfold at your own pace.
Tina’s work is grounded in the understanding that healing involves more than one part of us. Her approach brings together energy therapy, breath awareness, nervous system regulation, somatic awareness, meditation, and subconscious work—while recognizing that every person arrives with a different history, different needs, and a different pace.
Rather than following a fixed formula, the work is responsive to the individual and what is present in the moment.
The retreat may end, but the process of integrating what you experienced continues.
Every private retreat includes access to the 7-Day Integration Program, offered online to help you carry the work into everyday life with reflection, practical support, and continued awareness.
