What Is a Relationship Intensive?



A Relationship Intensive is a focused, two-day experience involving four hours each day over a weekend that is designed to help you and your partner do deep relational work without the start-and-stop pace of weekly sessions. This format gives us the time to slow down the emotional process between you, understand the patterns that keep you stuck, and build a path toward a calmer, more connected relationship. Breaks are built in throughout each day.



  • Concentrated time: Eight hours across one weekend allows for depth that's hard to reach in 50-minute weekly sessions.

  • Faster momentum: Sustained focus often produces meaningful shifts in a fraction of the time traditional therapy takes.

  • Pacing: We work in helping each partner understand their own reactivity, anxiety, and patterns of relating, not just "fixing" the relationship from the outside in.

  • Tailored to your relationship: The weekend is shaped around what's actually happening between you two.

  • Skills that outlast the weekend: You'll leave with a clearer understanding of your own part in the relationship system and tools to keep growing that understanding on your own.


Who Can Benefit?

  • Couples in ongoing conflict or resentment

  • Couples navigating the aftermath of infidelity

  • Partners considering separation who want to explore what reconciliation could look like

  • Couples in transition such as a new marriage, new parenthood, or moving in together

  • Relationships wanting more emotional closeness and intimacy

  • Couples facing a major life stressor such as job loss, illness, or other disruptions



What to Expect

  • Format: Two consecutive days, four hours each, over one weekend

  • Structure: A series of guided clinical blocks built around your specific relationship

  • Facilitation: I help each of you understand your own reactivity, articulate what you're feeling, and hear each other differently


Preparing for Your Intensive

  • Come ready to look inward. This work asks each partner to examine their own part in the relationship system, not just the other person's.

  • Plan to stay through both days. The depth of this work depends on the full weekend.

  • Speak honestly. There's no "wrong" feeling here.

  • Minimize distractions. Phones off, meals eaten beforehand, water or a favorite drink on hand.
