Traditional couples therapy can be helpful for some problems, but partners often find themselves repeating the same negative patterns even after many sessions. It can take a long time before either person begins to feel positive change. Much of the time in the traditional model — weekly sessions for an hour at a time — can be spent rehashing recurring fights or revisiting painful history. Sessions often end with nothing resolved. 

The intensive experience is much faster and more effective than traditional couples therapy. We stay immersed in the work for up to 8 hours at a time, and we don’t spend that time rehashing old fights. You’ll learn new skills that can break through old patterns. You’ll learn how to work more collaboratively with your partner. You’ll be able to listen to your partner’s concerns without feeling attacked. You’ll leave with a customized notebook full of practical information and all of the skills we cover so you can refer back to it any time. 

You’ll be able to work more as a team and less as adversaries. The work is hard, but this is the most effective and rapid means of hitting the “reset” button in your relationship. 

I’ve been working with couples and individuals for almost 30 years, and I know too well what can happen when people don’t have the skills to navigate conflict without hurting each other. That’s why I’m offering this model of couples therapy. It offers lasting and positive change for the most important relationship in your life.
