What Does the Program Involve?
Couple's Intensives are for those of you who absolutely want to leave at the end of the day with a notebook full of things specific to how you are and how you work and how to do things better. You are going to leave with a brand-new way to communicate with your partner that sticks over time. This format is for you if you don’t want to slough through slow weekly sessions and you are on the brink of divorce, you are desperate for change, and you need it now.

Couples gain clarity, learn new skills, and have time to practice them in real-time with hands-on coaching.
