"The trip challenged me on all levels. The opportunity to be brave helped me on so many levels. I never knew I was brave until this trip"
- Anonymous, Survivor Participant
"I had a major decrease in trauma symptoms. I was experiencing emotional and relational disturbances quite frequently prior to the trip. I was having suicidal ideation and feeling very hopeless about my mom's health and guilty about finding a balance of taking care of myself. I had difficulty talking or seeing my mom to the point of being avoidant unless communication was absolutely necessary. I was able to work through a lot of those emotions. I can now spend quality time with mom and enjoy time with her and be a better caretaker and better take care of myself"
- Jaimie, Survivor Participant
"This trip has been one of the most impactful experiences in my recovery. I was able to feel safe and open up. All the small things were thought of. I would highly recommend this trip to other survivors. Also, this is an amazing group it would be an honor for anyone to partner with Logos in anyway"
- Andria, Survivor Participant
"Partnering with Logos was such an amazing experience. From the first conversation to the last moment, every interaction was a breath of fresh air and filled with love. As someone who has worked with multiple programs it was refreshing to encounter an organization that is showing up for individuals with love and providing excellent programming. I would highly recommend anyone to work with Logos or go on one of their trips"
- Erin, Clinician at Collaborative Organization
Our vision is a future where every individual with trauma has the resources and access to experience healing
The vision of Logos Wilderness Therapy began on a backpacking trip in 2017 when Jessica Roberts and Chelsea Van Essen first began their friendship. In discovering a similar passion for wilderness and working with those most oppressed and exploited, the dream of Logos was born. The two women along with their friend Karly Buer founded Logos Wilderness Therapy in 2018. Established as a 501(c)(3) non-profit, Logos ran its first wilderness therapy trip in the summer of 2019.
