The Quiet Reset
Fountain House: Exclusive 3-5 day Retreats for Deep, Restorative Healing
Many adults carry an extraordinary emotional load for years without rest — responsibility, decision-making, caregiving, leadership, pressure, identity changes, and the quiet exhaustion of always coping and trying to keep it all together. Eventually the mind and body ask for space, quiet, and genuine support. The indicators come in many guises, illness, insomnia, stress, poor interpersonal relationships...
The Quiet Reset is a private, psychologist-led retreat for adults who need a deeply restorative pause. It is a quiet, intuitive, tailored experience designed to help you decompress, reconnect with yourself, and understand what your inner world has been trying to tell you.
This retreat is not performative, not coaching, not a group programme, and not wellness theatre.
It is a held, supportive space where you can rest, deeply — and find understanding within yourself — without pressure or expectation.
MY APPROACH
As a psychotherapist who has spent decades working with adults at midlife, I understand the inner transitions, identity shifts, and emotional fatigue that arise during this phase of life — often quietly, and often without language.
My approach is:
intuitive
supportive
deeply respectful
paced according to your readiness
tailored entirely to your emotional needs
Insight emerges naturally once the nervous system has space to settle.
My role is to guide, hold, and help you make meaning of what unfolds — gently, compassionately, and with depth.
This is not coaching.
You will not be pushed, evaluated, or asked to perform insight.
We work with what is real for you, at a pace your system can hold
WHY THIS RETREAT IS DIFFERENT
A Space Free From Demands
You don’t have to manage anything.
You won’t be asked to join groups, perform vulnerability, or share with strangers.
Intuitive & Bespoke Support
Your retreat is shaped around you — your energy, your capacity, your needs.
Nothing is pre-scripted; everything is attuned.
A Deeply Restorative Environment
FountainHouse offers quiet, natural beauty and spaciousness that allow the mind to unclench and the body to soften.
Insight Without Pressure
Understanding emerges organically when you feel safe, unhurried, and deeply held.
WHO THIS RETREAT IS FOR
Life can feel heavy sometimes. The constant juggling of work, family, and personal responsibilities can leave you feeling drained, disconnected, or unsure of your next step. Quiet Reset retreats are a gentle invitation to step away from the noise, rest, and reconnect with yourself — your energy, your purpose, and your sense of calm. We often carry stress, exhaustion, grief, or big life questions quietly, thinking we need to manage it all alone. But stepping away for a pause — to breathe, reflect, and restore — can be transformative. These retreats are about giving yourself the space and kindness you need to heal, reset, and regain clarity.
Are you feeling burnt out, overwhelmed, or exhausted?
Are you navigating midlife changes or wondering about their life’s next chapter?
Are you carrying grief or loss, whether recent or longstanding?
Do you feel like you have lost touch with who you are?

A NOTE FROM ME — DR LOUISA NIEHAUS
You may be arriving tired, overwhelmed, grief stricken or unsure of what you need — only that something inside you is asking for space and understanding.
The Quiet Reset is an invitation to soften, recalibrate, and return to yourself with gentleness and insight.
It is a space where nothing is demanded of you, where you can rest deeply, and where your inner world can finally be heard.
I look forward to welcoming you.

Retreat Reviews
“I didn’t know what to expect, I was so used to running the show. The retreat with Dr Niehaus was a turning point. I had no clue I was so depleted. It’s been difficult to confront what led to all of this. It was exactly what I needed to recover from burnout.”
