Tanya Bennion
Tanya began her own healing work after the death of her first husband when she joined a support group for widows and eventually started her own group. She has now been a part of and leading various support groups since 1999. In 2004, she attended her first experiential weekend. Since then, she has attended, staffed or lead many other weekends. Tanya helped create and co-lead North Star’s Women of Worth (WoW) conference in 2008 – a 2-day experiential retreat designed for women married to men who experience same-sex attraction. (New WoW conferences were created for 6 years.) In 2012, she created North Star’s Couple’s Retreat – a week-long retreat designed to improve intimacy, understanding, connection, and communication within marriages. Tanya, along with her co-creators, began Toolbox Healing/Daughters of Light in 2014. Tanya has a BA in liberal studies from American University in Washington, DC, with an emphasis in Communication. She is a web developer and graphic designer, as well as a life coach.
