About Vereziere Sanctum
About The Park Sanctuary
Our Story
In 2013, Allison Lee Axinn and Lucien Cattai founded at The Park , the Transpersonal and Past Life Regression Hypnotherapy training program in Pietrasanta, Tuscany, with a clear mission: to create a safe, supportive environment where hands-on practice and experiential learning could facilitate genuine transformation—both for practitioners and their future clients.
Our Comprehensive Approach
Since our establishment, The Park Sanctuary has become a recognized center for:
- Transpersonal Hypnotherapy Training
- Past Life Therapy Training
- Past Life Regression Therapy
- Clinical Hypnosis Certification
- Advanced Therapeutic Techniques
- Hypno-dreaming Therapy
- Michael Newton Institute-approved Life-Between-Lives Training
- Supervision Weekends and Certification Programs
- Spiritual Alchemy experientials
- Research and development of New Healing modalities
- Exploration and Exchange weeks for personal development and developing protocols
The Evolution of Our Methods
Through years of trainings, supervision weekends and intensive follow ups, we've developed an innovative collaborative approach. Our experience has shown that when you take ample time to let everything unfold the depth of insight and therapeutic breakthrough significantly increases. This multi-perspective method provides richer understanding, broader technique integration, and more lasting transformation.
This collaborative model emerged from our combined private and practice experience, where we discovered that integrating different therapeutic approaches and practitioners often creates a more solid foundation for healing than any single method alone.
Philosophy of Practitioner Development
We maintain that personal development is not optional but essential for effective therapeutic practice. Our programs emphasize that therapists must remain committed to their own growth and self-awareness to maintain the centered presence necessary for holding healing space for others. This philosophy of ongoing personal work ensures that our students enter the field as balanced practitioners capable of creating authentic therapeutic environments for their clients.
Our Location
The Park Sanctuary sits on a right outside of Pietrasanta in Tuscany, surrounded by olive groves, Mediterranean landscape and the sea. Our facility includes:
- Main training house with annexed buildings
- A vast library for transpersonal studies and beyond
- Meditation hut for personal and collective practice
- Natural creek running through the property
- Sacred fire circle
- A charming old italian town nearby
Located just five minutes on foot from Pietrasanta's main square, we benefit from the town's rich artistic heritage. Pietrasanta hosts an international community of stone carvers and artists, with marble studios, mosaic workshops, and bronze foundries, all situated near the Mediterranean coast.
Our Commitment
At The Park, we believe that effective transpersonal therapy emerges from the intersection of solid technique, personal authenticity, and collaborative wisdom. Our training programs reflect this belief, enabling practitioners who are both technically competent and personally grounded in their own healing journey.
Whether you come to us for training or for therapeutic services, you'll find a community committed to supporting deep, lasting transformation through approaches that honor both the practical and the profound dimensions of human consciousness.
Post training and post session support are considered to be a natural progression for reinforcing the foundations of growth, transformation and becoming a therapist.
Ongoing Developing and Learning
The Evolution of Our Collaborative Method
Our supervised weekends and review sessions became laboratories of discovery, revealing a profound truth: when multiple skilled therapists collaborate around a single client's journey, the depth of insight and therapeutic breakthrough increases exponentially. These group debriefs illuminated perspectives that individual practitioners might miss, creating a more comprehensive understanding that leads to lasting transformation.
The Birth of "Turning Point"
The wisdom embedded in the phrase "it takes a village to raise a child" became central to our approach. We witnessed how certain complex healing situations required more than individual therapy could provide—they needed the collective wisdom, varied expertise, and multi-layered support that only a therapeutic community could offer.
This realization gave birth to our "Turning Point" program. After years of occasionally bringing multiple therapists together for challenging cases, we began intentionally creating what we had long envisioned: a true healing village where clients could feel completely supported while benefiting from shared professional perspectives and collaborative session planning.
Adapting and Expanding Through Challenge
When COVID-19 emerged in 2020, our commitment to continuous learning and community support only deepened. We maintained face-to-face sessions and trainings while simultaneously developing robust post training and post session zoom meetings to review, debrief and explore our international programs to ensure our training and supervision never stopped. Our residential English and Italian trainings, supervised weekends, and healing retreats continued, adapting to serve our global community.
Our Growing Community of Practice
As our understanding has deepened, so has our team. We've welcomed new therapists, instructors, and lecturers, each bringing unique insights and specialized expertise to our programs. This expansion reflects our core belief that different techniques resonate differently with individual therapists and clients—there is no single "right" approach to healing.
Our diverse faculty ensures that students encounter multiple methodologies and perspectives, allowing them to discover which approaches align most naturally with their own gifts and calling.
The Inspiration of Mutual Learning
Perhaps most importantly, we remain eternally inspired by our students and clients. Each training session, each therapeutic encounter, each supervised weekend teaches us something new about effectiveness, depth, and lasting results. This reciprocal learning—where teachers become students and students become teachers—keeps our work fresh, humble, and continuously evolving.
In this field, there is always more to discover, always deeper ways to serve, always new territories of consciousness to explore. This endless frontier of learning is not a burden—it's our greatest inspiration and the source of our passion for this sacred work.
About Turning Point
About Turning Point
Beginning around 2005 we began to combine working with more than one therapist working with the same client in individual sessions, creating a possibility for joined support and feedback, and a wider range of therapeutic insight and methodologies.
We had observed supervised weekends with students where two or three therapists worked with the same client brought insights and change. And when we debriefed together we understood that we created more possibilities for understanding how to create a more comprehensive therapy. These experiences gave birth to a desire to have an more in-depth comprehensive program for those looking to change their lives.
Also combining body mind and spirit via sessions with ayurvedic masseuses and interactive body work along with therapy sessions our work became more grounded for each person to discover better ways to integrate and continue strengthening their development post retreat, post sessions.
Since 2018, the Sanctum began to offer these interwoven programs as a residential retreat where in-depth therapy and wellness programs could create a Turning Point.
Turning Point Residential Healing Retreat, is an intensive program created to help people who have chosen to change their lives, transform, heal, and move forward. It is open to anyone who has these desires, wishes, and commitments.
Even therapists need therapy:
