The DNA Surprise Retreat is for adults experiencing the grief and shock that can only be felt following a DNA discovery. If you are ready to address the emotions following a DNA surprise and discover tools to move forward, you are in the right place.

– You are an NPE (non-paternal or non-parental event) or MPE (misattributed paternity event). Most often, this means that you’ve learned your “dad isn’t your dad.”

– You are an adoptee. You may have discovered that you were adopted later in life (late-discovery adoptee or LDA) after taking a DNA test. Or maybe you connected with your birth parent after taking a consumer DNA test. You found siblings through DNA testing.

– You are a donor-conceived person. You learned you were donor conceived through DNA testing. You connected with your genetic parent after taking a consumer DNA test. You connected with or found siblings through DNA testing.
