Couples Intensive Program
Couples Intensives are a great option for couples who would like to get a lot or work done in a short amount of time. There are three types of couples intensives-Marriage Boot Camp (Week Long Couples Retreat), the Jump Start Session, and introducing Erotic Adventure Retreats. These sessions are highly recommended for the following couples:
- Couples who want to revamp their sex lives. They are still happy with each other, they have just lost that spark.
- Couples who are questioning whether to continue working on a relationship or terminate the relationship (Answering the question-Should I stay or should I go?)
- Couples who have recently found out about an infidelity.
- Couples who struggle to commit to weekly couples sessions across several months but can take off work for a short period of time.
Marriage Boot Camp (Week Long Couples Retreat)
Marriage Boot Camp is a week long couples intensive retreat where you and your partner unlearn old unhealthy patterns and embrace new ones. If you want a better marriage, you have break your old cycles. Similar to military training, we have to break down the old patterns to embrace new ones. Each day in the week retreat focuses on different skills to improve your relationship and your sex life.
Couples attend a personal therapy retreat for 5 days, Monday through Friday from 9am to 12pm. The first day is a comprehensive marital assessment followed by a treatment plan for the week. The next four days focus on different couples skills to help improve your marriage based on the information gathered from the assessment. Each day, your therapist will give a homework assignment for you as a couple to work on before the next day. Here's an example of what you might expect in your Marriage Boot Camp:
Day 1: Assessment, Goals, and Plan of Action-Find out What You are Doing Wrong so You Can Make Things Right
Day 2: Fight for Your Marriage-Resolve Conflicts and Learn the Building Blocks for Healthy Conflict Resolution
Day 3: Stand Up for Your Love-Choose to Love Your Partner Every Day in Deeper and More Powerful Ways
Day 4: Explore Erotic Adventure-Bravely Open Bedroom Doors to Create a Hotter, More Dynamic Sex Life
Day 5: Continue the Mission-Set Yourself Up for Success by Planning for Potential Failures
Each couple will be given their own unique treatment plan for the week based on the goals and problems they discuss in the first day's session. Your treatment plan is tailored to meet your personal needs. Therapy involves communicating directly, respectfully, and openly about topics impacting your relationship. Don't let another day go by in an unhappy and unhealthy marriage. You owe it to yourself and to each other to make things right.
Marriage Therapy Retreats Costs $6000 for the week. A $3000 non-refundable deposit is required up front to book this session.
Jump Start Session
The jump start session is a one day couples intensive. Couples spend a full day working through their issues. The session goes from 9-12pm (3 hours) and then 1-3pm (2 hours). There is an hour break for lunch from 12-1pm.
First hour, we meet as a couple and discuss the issues. You teach me what's going wrong and assess for what's going on behind the scenes. When you talk, what does your partner hear or not hear? When your partner talks, what do you hear or not hear? What is getting in the way of you understanding each other? What resentments are preventing your growth?
Second hour, I split you up and give you each a chance to talk with me one on one. I learn your history, your patterns, and what is getting in your way. You get an opportunity to talk without worrying about what your partner will say or think. I get the opportunity to build trust with you and really understand your side of things.
Third hour, you come back together as a couple and we set final goals and hopes for the second part of the day. Then, you head off to lunch from 12-1pm while I decide what skills I want to teach you in your afternoon session.
Fourth and fifth hour, I teach you practical skills that will help you improve the situation. My skills are specfic to your relationship and are in depth. Typically, it takes me an hour to teach each skill because I tailor the skills to meet your needs. If we cover a conflict resolution skill, I take the time to personalize the skill to each of you. I help you walk through the ways you get in your own way. I challenge you both to take personal responsibility. I help you come up with a plan to hold each other and yourselves accountable.
After the session, I write a follow up email with suggestions for future skills, homework assignments, and a potential treatment plan if you choose to move forward with follow up visits.
A Jump Start Session costs $2000. A $1000 non-refundable deposit is required up front to schedule the session.
Erotic Adventure Retreat (Coming Soon)
This summer I am hosting my very first Erotic Adventure Retreat. I am teaming up with the Landing Hub in Pacific, Mo to host a weekend retreat that helps you and your partner dive deep into sexual and erotic exploration. Many of my couples want to try something new but don't know what is out there to try.
Your whole body is capable of giving and receiving pleasure. On this retreat, I will teach tantric sex practices that help you slow down, connect and fully engage sexually with your partner. Ignite your senses, rediscover your desire, and learn that sex is the ultimate adventure. Please submit a contact form and indicate you want to learn more about this retreat. More information is coming soon!
