More Time. More Focus. Deeper Work.
Sometimes 50 minutes isn't enough to unpack what has been building between you.
An Intensive Relationship Session provides dedicated time to slow down, understand the pattern, and focus on the relationship concerns that matter most to you.
Whether you're facing a major transition, feeling stuck in the same cycle, or simply want concentrated support, an intensive gives you the space to do deeper work without having to rush the conversation.
Common Concerns
An intensive may be helpful when you're navigating:
-
Repeated conflict that never seems to get resolved
-
Communication breakdowns
-
Emotional disconnection
-
Trust and relationship repair
-
Major life transitions
-
Adjusting to marriage or parenthood
-
Parenting differences
-
Financial stress or major financial decisions
-
Intimacy and connection
-
Family-of-origin or extended-family conflict
-
A decision or transition requiring deeper conversation
-
Patterns you've tried to change but keep returning to
-
Preparing for an important conversation
-
Wanting to reconnect after a difficult season
You don't have to be in crisis to benefit from an intensive.
Sometimes you simply need more time and intentional space to focus on what matters.
Intensive Relationship Therapy
You're in the Right Place If...
Your Relationship May Be...
Stuck in the Same Cycle
You have the same disagreement repeatedly, but neither of you feels like you're getting anywhere.
Going Through a Major Transition
A new baby, marriage, move, career change, parenting transition, or other life event has shifted your relationship.
In Need of Repair
Something happened that changed the relationship, and you're ready to begin working through the impact together.
Struggling to Find Time
Life is busy, and you want dedicated time to focus on your relationship rather than trying to squeeze important conversations into an already full schedule.
Ready for Deeper Work
You understand that the issue isn't just the disagreement itself—you want to understand the pattern underneath it.
How We Support You
Focus. Understand. Repair. Reconnect.
Intensive relationship sessions are Gottman-informed, with a focus on understanding your relationship patterns, improving communication, managing conflict, and strengthening connection.
Depending on your goals, we may also explore family-of-origin and intergenerational patterns or the individual experiences and inner conflicts that influence how each partner responds within the relationship.
Together, we may:
Identify the Pattern
Understand the cycle you find yourselves repeating and what keeps it going.
Slow Down the Conflict
Create space for each partner to communicate without getting lost in the escalation.
Understand What's Beneath the Problem
Explore the emotions, needs, experiences, and expectations underneath the disagreement.
Practice New Ways of Connecting
Use practical communication, conflict-management, and repair strategies in real time.
Create a Plan
Identify specific changes you can continue practicing after the intensive.
The goal isn't to solve every problem in one session.
It's to create meaningful movement where you may have felt stuck.
Is an Intensive Right for You?
An intensive may be a good fit if you're looking for focused relationship work beyond a traditional therapy hour.
It may be especially helpful for couples who:
-
Want to address one or two specific concerns in depth.
-
Are experiencing a major transition.
-
Want concentrated support between regular therapy sessions.
-
Need dedicated time to work through a difficult conversation.
-
Are looking for a reset after a challenging season.
-
Want to make meaningful progress on a recurring relationship pattern.
-
An intensive can be used as a standalone experience or as part of ongoing couples therapy, depending on your needs and goals.
