Couples Intensives
Compressed, multi-day work for relationships in real distress.
See if Couples intensive fits. Free assessmentA couples intensive is a multi-day immersive therapy experience for couples in significant relational distress. Unlike weekly couples therapy, which may take months to address deep patterns, a couples intensive compresses twelve to twenty or more hours of therapeutic work into a two to five day period.
Couples intensives are particularly effective for relationships facing a crisis, including infidelity, communication breakdown, repeated conflict patterns, and disconnection following major life transitions. Many therapists specializing in evidence-based approaches including EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) and the Gottman Method offer intensive formats.
Who it's for
Couples who are in serious relational distress and need more than weekly sessions can provide. Couples facing a specific crisis or decision point. Those who have tried couples therapy without sufficient progress.
