Relationship Intensives

A deeper, steadier space when something in your relationship needs
more than a weekly check-in.

Sometimes life hands you moments that feel too big, too urgent, or too layered for a standard session.

This proven and studied format gives the space to slow down the pressure,
hear each other clearly,
and reconnect with the truth of what’s happening,
in a guided, structured, caring space.

Relationship Intensives are for couples, partners, chosen family, or anyone navigating a challenging relational moment that needs more space and support than a weekly session can hold.

What happens inside an Intensive?

We create a focused space designed for:

  • grounding your nervous systems 
  • understanding each person’s internal world  
  • uncovering the patterns beneath the surface conflict  
  • slowing down the conversation so you can actually hear each other  
  • naming needs, boundaries-as-freedom, and options with compassion  
  • exploring choices, relationship repair, or intentional separation  
  • reconnecting with steadiness, clarity, and truth

There is a specific format and breaks. We can meet virtually, or in my office. The most comfortable and productive option is virtually. You can be in the same location or different.

An Intensive may be right when you’re:           

  • circling the same conflict, rupture, or misunderstanding
  • trying to repair after betrayal, shutdown, or emotional distance
  • moving through a major life change - caregiving, illness, blended families, aging, work stress
  • navigating identity shifts, queerness, polyamory, mixed-faith dynamics
  • feeling stuck between staying, leaving, or redefining your relationship
  • wanting support for a difficult conversation or a new beginning 
  • needing clarity, truth, safety, or next steps - together or separately

If your relationship is asking for more depth, clarity, or steadiness,
I’m here to support you with a grounded, compassionate, and skilled approach.

Your Intensive Options    

You won’t have to choose alone. We’ll decide together during your Clarity Session.

“We finally understood each other in a way we never had before. The intensive was the first time the conversation felt safe enough
to go where it needed to go.”

Why You Don't Have to Choose Right Now

The first step for any Intensive is a Clarity Session - a gentle 1hour conversation where we explore what’s happening,
if we're a good fit for your current needs,
and decide together which format offers
the support you need.

Bring your truth and I'll help you choose the path that fits.

Every relationship is different - your first step doesn’t have to be big. It just has to be honest.
