FAQS

  • Description text goes here

  • Duration and Intensity: Intensive relationship therapy involves extended, multi-day sessions compressed into a short period, contrasting with weekly therapy's spread-out, shorter sessions over months. According to experts, "On average, a 3-day relationship intensive is equivalent to about 6 months of therapy."

    Immersive Experience: Relationship intensives offer an immersive environment where couples can focus entirely on their relationship without daily distractions. In contrast, weekly therapy sessions are shorter, and couples return to their daily routines between appointments.

    Depth of Exploration: The extended duration of intensive therapy allows couples to delve deeply into their issues and address them more thoroughly than they could in weekly sessions.

    Quicker Results: Intensive retreats focus the therapeutic work, often producing faster results compared to the gradual pace of weekly sessions over time.

    Teaching vs. Practice: Weekly counseling emphasizes gradual skill-building and practice between sessions, while intensives prioritize concentrated teaching and therapeutic work to foster significant progress.

  • When considering intensive couples therapy, several factors come into play:

    Commitment Level — Intensive programs demand a significant time commitment away from work, family, and daily life to fully engage in the process. Both partners must be highly committed to this intense therapeutic journey.

    Ability to Take a Break — Given that intensives can span several consecutive days, flexibility to step away from other obligations for an extended period is necessary, which can be challenging for some couples.

    Crisis Situations — For couples in crisis or facing potential divorce, an intensive program offers an opportunity to swiftly address severe issues and stabilize the marriage.

    Scheduling — Couples with inconsistent schedules can benefit from the condensed format of intensive therapy, as it eliminates the need for weekly sessions.

    Financial Resources — While intensive marriage retreats typically involve higher upfront costs due to extended therapist time, they often represent better long-term value because of the accelerated results achieved.

  • Intensive couples therapy addresses nearly any issue that couples typically bring to traditional weekly sessions, but with significantly faster results.

    These programs are particularly beneficial for couples in crisis, such as those grappling with infidelity or other significant traumas.

  • The only preparation I ask of you is to arrive ready to actively engage in the session and make real progress in your relationship. This requires you to be focused and fully present. The specifics may vary depending on your situation, but I trust you to empower yourself and prepare mentally for this important work! text goes here
