Couples Weekend Intensive

Sometimes once-a-week therapy just doesn’t feel like enough—especially when you’re exhausted, stuck in the same arguments, or quietly wondering what the future of your relationship even looks like. When things feel that big, it can be helpful to have more time and space than a 50‑minute session can offer.

Intensive Couples Therapy is designed for those seasons. Instead of spreading things out over months, you and your partner spend two to three focused days together in the work. It’s a chance to step back from everyday stress, slow everything down, and really look at what’s been happening between you—so you can start to understand it, name it, and begin to shift it, together.

More Therapy, Less time

WHO IT’S FOR

Couples Weekend Intensives are designed for partners who want to really lean into the work without the constant “start and stop” of weekly sessions. They’re especially helpful if you’re feeling the urgency of what’s happening between you and want more focused, dedicated time together.

An intensive may be a good fit if you and your partner:

• Have trouble fitting regular therapy into an already packed schedule

• Are in the middle of a crisis, like frequent conflict, growing distance, or the pain of infidelity

• Need to make an important decision soon and don’t want to wait months to feel movement

• Notice that your relationship has slipped into the background and you want to actively reconnect

• Are considering separation or divorce and want thoughtful, supported space to explore your options together

These weekends are meant to be a caring, structured pause—a chance to step out of your usual routines, name what’s really going on, and give your relationship the focused attention and hope it deserves.

  • I know that choosing an intensive is both an emotional and financial investment, and I want to be as clear and transparent as possible about the cost.

    Intensive Options (virtual)

    • 1-day intensive: $1,800

    • 2-day intensive: $2,550

    • 3-day intensive: $3,750

  • To reserve your intensive, a 50% non-refundable deposit is due at the time of booking. This deposit goes toward your total fee. The remaining balance is due 72 hours before your first intensive day.

  • Rescheduling I understand that life happens. If you need to reschedule, I offer a one-time transfer of your deposit to a different weekend within the same month, as long as you give at least 7 days’ notice. We’ll work together to find a new time that fits.

    Cancellations Because intensives require a large block of reserved time, my cancellation policy is a bit firmer than for weekly sessions:

    • If you cancel with less than 7 days’ notice, your deposit (and any deposit transfer) is forfeited.

    • If you cancel within 72 hours of the intensive, the full fee is due.

  • If you have questions about whether an intensive is the right fit for you—emotionally, practically, or financially—I’m always happy to talk it through in a consultation before you commit.

HOW IT WORKS

Couples’ weekend intensives give you and your partner a clear, structured way to focus on your relationship over 2–3 consecutive days, usually a weekend. Instead of feeling like you’re just starting to open up and then having to shut everything down after 50 minutes, an intensive lets you stay with the work. I draw from the Gottman Method and Collaborative Couples Therapy to guide us, but our time together is always shaped by who you are and what you’re walking through.

In general, we’ll meet for about 5–8 hours a day, with breaks built in for lunch, rest, and reflection. The goal isn’t to grind through as much as possible—it’s to move at a pace that allows for depth, honesty, and care for your nervous systems.

Before we ever meet on screen, you’ll both complete a comprehensive relationship assessment. On the first day of the intensive, I’ll spend time with you together as a couple and also meet with each of you individually. This helps me really understand your histories, perspectives, and hopes for the future.

What we learn from that first day shapes the next. The following sessions weave together skill-building, deeper conversations, and evidence-based interventions tailored to your relationship. Throughout the process, we’ll keep coming back to what matters most to you as a couple—so the work feels relevant, usable, and grounded in your real life, not just theory.

WHEN & WHERE

Right now, Intensive Couples Therapy with me is offered online only, so you and your partner can join from the comfort of your own space. Virtual intensives can be deeply meaningful and effective—they give you focused time together without the added stress of travel, childcare, or logistics.

Most intensives are scheduled over a weekend (Friday–Sunday), when it’s a little easier to step away from everyday demands. If weekdays work better for you, we can talk about creating a schedule that fits your life while still giving your relationship the time and attention it deserves.
