When it comes to investing in therapy for your marriage, it’s understandable to want to feel confident in making the right choice. An article published by The Wall Street Journal highlights the benefits of Intensives.

According to the article, Counseling Intensives bring about incredible transformations in relationships in a very short period of time. The journalist documented the many ways that Intensives provide couples with an opportunity to delve deeply into their issues, achieve powerful breakthroughs in communication, and experience lasting connection and overall improved relationship satisfaction.

For those interested in learning more about the benefits of 2 Day Intensives and how they can positively impact a relationship, reading the full article here.

A 2 Day Intensive This intensive is ideal for couples who:

• Feel stuck and need immediate, structured help

• Are facing a relationship crisis and want to prevent divorce

• Have plateaued or made little progress in traditional therapy

• Desire a powerful relationship tune-up with focused attention.

Whether you're rebuilding from betrayal or ready to deepen your bond, this experience can help reignite the connection you once shared—and create a new foundation that lasts.

The intensive approach offers a more impactful and efficient alternative to traditional 55-minute sessions. In a typical 55-minute session, valuable time is consumed by initial check-ins and closing discussions, leaving only around 35-40 minutes for substantial therapeutic exploration. In contrast, with a 2 Day Intensive you’re receiving a total of 12 hours of intensive therapy.

Considering a typical schedule of bi-weekly counseling sessions, which amounts to one session every two weeks, a 2 Day Intensive would be the equivalent of six months of bi-weekly counseling sessions. The Intensive experience truly allows for a concentrated focus on life-changing work, providing substantial progress and insights over a very short period of time.

Upon booking your session, a non-refundable 50% deposit is due to secure your spot. The remaining balance is then due the morning of the first day of your Intensive.

While I am able to reschedule your Intensive with at least 3 weeks notice, please note that all payments are non-refundable. This policy is in place due to the highly personalized and unique nature of the 2 Day Intensives, ensuring that resources are allocated appropriately to meet your specific therapeutic goals while also respecting the investment of my time and energy. If you need to reschedule, your deposit can be transferred to your rescheduled 2 Day Intensive.

Unfortunately, 2 Day Intensives are not covered by insurance for a variety of reasons. First, insurance companies often have strict criteria for reimbursable services, and the non-traditional format of Intensives do not meet these criteria. Additionally, the duration of Intensives, with longer sessions over a shorter period, do not align with insurance policies designed for shorter, weekly sessions. Furthermore, there are limitations on the types of counseling covered by insurance, and Intensives fall outside of these covered categories. Finally, the highly customized nature of Intensives can also pose challenges for insurance companies in standardizing reimbursement criteria. These factors collectively contribute to the unfortunate reality that insurance does not cover 2 Day Intensives.

Yes! If both spouses are motivated and willing to try something new, there’s definitely hope for change.

The Intensive therapy model I offer is only effective for motivated couples.
