About Soul SPA
A collaborative wellbeing company rooted in real life, deep care, and sustainable change.
Soul Spa Retreats was founded by Courtney Morris, Health and Wellbeing Coach, and Erin Doerwald, LCSW, Holistic Psychotherapist, mindfulness + yoga teacher. Together, they create retreats, coaching experiences, workshops, and wellbeing offerings that support whole-person care through mindfulness, movement, reflection, rest, and meaningful connection.
Our story
Courtney and Erin first met in 2006 in a postnatal yoga class. They bonded quickly over the shared experience of having babies who simply wouldn’t settle—so much so that they were eventually asked to leave the class. What began in chaos grew into a deep and lasting friendship rooted in shared values, honesty, and care.
Over the years, they supported one another through motherhood, work, and the very real challenge of prioritizing wellbeing while building full lives and meaningful careers as wellness professionals. After decades in long-term leadership roles at two of Santa Fe’s flagship wellness organizations—The Sky Center of the New Mexico Suicide Intervention Project and Ten Thousand Waves—they took the leap to build something of their own.
Soul Spa grew from that lived experience—not from an idealized version of wellness, but from real life as it is.

Wellbeing is not about escape or perfection.
Soul Spa is grounded in the belief that wellbeing is about creating supportive experiences that help people reconnect with themselves, deepen self-awareness, and cultivate lasting change that can be integrated into everyday life.
A wider circle of care.
Soul Spa is built on the belief that wellbeing should feel both nourishing and attainable. Our long-term vision includes a thoughtful, tiered approach—offering bespoke, elevated retreats and private experiences alongside a growing commitment to broader access through grant funding and scholarships.
