Ten Ten Life to Lead Free Group Therapy Weekend Retreats for Military, Veterans, First Responders

HERNDON, Va. - EntSun -- Ten Ten Life, a faith-based nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting the mental health of military members, veterans, and first responders, today announced a partnership with Willing Warriors to offer recurring group therapy intensive retreats at the Willing Warriors' Warrior Retreat Center at Bull Run in Haymarket, Va at no cost to participants. To facilitate deeper healing and recovery for participants, each 3-day retreat offering will utilize the Confessional Community® group therapy model, developed by renowned psychiatrist, Curt Thompson, M.D., founder and Chief Purpose Officer of New Story Behavioral Health in Falls Church, Va.

"Healing is a journey. For those who have gained a greater understanding of their life stories through individual trauma-focused therapy, structured group therapy models like the Confessional Community® can be a powerful next step to accelerate recovery and serve as a powerful catalyst for healing and long-term change," said David Steele, LMFT, CEO of Ten Ten Life and a longtime Confessional Community® facilitator and clinical trainer. "We are grateful to Willing Warriors for opening up their beautiful campus to our members, and to Dr. Thompson for entrusting us with the Confessional Community® model to support our members through the healing journey."

With a network of more than 20 trauma-focused therapists throughout Northern Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia, Ten Ten Life provides individual counseling, and now, group intensive retreats, for active-duty military members, veterans, and first responders. Limited to an intimate cohort of eight participants, each three-day intensive employs the Confessional Community® model, which synthesizes interpersonal neurobiology, principles of group psychotherapy, and spiritual formation from a Christian anthropology. Within this safe structure, participants are empowered to share their stories and experience the profound, restorative power of being fully 'known.'

"Those who serve often carry a unique burden of silence, believing that their experiences are too heavy to share or that no one else could possibly understand," said Dr. Thompson. "With these group intensive retreats, Ten Ten Life is creating a sanctuary where that silence can be broken. By experiencing the deep relief of being fully known without judgment, these men and women can begin to dissolve the shame that often accompanies trauma and reclaim a sense of wholeness."

Retreats will be hosted at the Willing Warriors' Warrior Retreat at Bull Run in Haymarket, a 37-acre retreat center ideally suited for deep therapeutic work.

"We are honored to partner with Ten Ten Life in this important work," said Sarah Ford, Executive Director, at Willing Warriors. "Our facility has always been a place of healing and hope for military families, and now for first responders. By hosting these retreats, we hope to extend our impact and provide a sanctuary where our heroes can experience the transformative power of authentic community alongside others who truly understand their journey."

Applications are now being accepted for the February 2026 retreat. Interested participants can visit www.tentenlife.org to learn more about eligibility requirements, the Confessional Community® model, as well as individual trauma-focused counseling services.
