Private Couples Intensives
A Couples Intensive offers a powerful and immersive experience for partners looking to strengthen their relationship. Unlike traditional therapy, which unfolds over months, a Couples Intensive condenses multiple sessions into one or two consecutive days. This accelerated format allows for deeper emotional engagement and meaningful progress.
This personalized format is beneficial for couples who want to:
• Address key relational concerns
• Break free from a negative cycle of arguing and blame
• Facilitate deeper healing and recovery
• Strengthen emotional connection
• Rebuild intimacy
• Prepare for a significant life transition

What Happens After the Intensive?
To stay on track after the intensive and reinforce the work you’ve done, you’ll need to schedule a follow-up couples therapy session in advance. This helps solidify the progress you’ve made and provides continued support as you apply what you’ve learned. If you don’t already have an EFT couples therapist, I’m happy to help you find a provider who fits your needs.
Is a Couples Intensive Right for You?
Couples Intensives designed to help partners address challenging issues, improve communication, and reconnect on a deeper level. While this process can be both powerful and transformative, it’s important to remember that every relationship is unique, and specific outcomes cannot be guaranteed.
Considerations
If would like to explore if a Couples Intensive is right for you, I’m happy to help you and answer you questions.
Considerations
- For couples considering ethical non-monogamy, it’s essential to explore and address the needs of both partners before re-engaging with others. Open, honest communication and mutual agreement are key in this process.
- Ongoing Affairs: If one partner is currently involved in an affair, a Couples Intensive is not recommended. Healing and rebuilding trust can only begin once the affair has been acknowledged and ended.
- Domestic Violence or Threats of Harm: If there is domestic violence, threats of harm, or fear of physical violence, a Couples Intensive is not appropriate. In these cases, individual therapy and specialized interventions should be the first step to ensure safety and well-being.
