I specialize in working with couples intensively. Couples therapy is aimed at helping partners to create a path through pain, estrangement, and trauma toward better connectivity. Couples work is usually conducted in extended sessions (80 minutes), spaced weeks apart.
Some couples may choose to participate in an immersion Three to One weekend format. Over 3 days, they will reside in a hotel away from work and home pressures to focus on their relationship. They will engage in 8 hours of therapy and homework assignments between sessions. The partners will practice attuning, expressing difficult feelings, deeply listening, and responding openly to each other. Ultimately, each person will lay down a personal plan for moving forward in the relationship and followup therapy.
