Couples intensive sessions are longer than regular sessions, usually 2-4 hours. Such extended sessions are a powerful way to jump-start couples therapy and can effectively alleviate the pressure and sense of urgency often experienced by couples who feel particularly stuck.

• Couples starting therapy
• Couples in long-distance relationships
• Couples whose schedules are not conducive to more frequent sessions
• Couples traveling some distance for therapy

The longer-duration format provides uninterrupted time to focus on increasing understanding and exploring different ways to relate to the issues that would make day to day living easier. Some couples prefer working in this modality, and often it is more productive than short weekly or biweekly sessions, although it is a bigger single financial outlay.

In a couples intensive, we generally work for a couple of hours, take a break, and then resume for another couple of hours. Fee is based on the amount of time. Please call for more information.
