Couples Intensive FAQs
Do you have a question that wasn’t answered here? Ready to book your free consultation? Let’s chat!
How do we get started?
You can use the contact page to schedule a free 15-minute consultation to explore if an intensive is the right fit, or you can send me an email directly to briefly chat about your interest in an intensive session and what you are seeking support for.
From there, we will schedule the 30-minute video call where I learn more about what challenges or changes you are facing in your relationship, and support you in determining shared goals. We will also schedule the in-person intensive session during this call.
What does “Bespoke intensive” mean?
An intensive is hours of couples therapy completed over one day rather than over the course of weeks or months. This may feel easier to schedule for some couples who find it challenging to schedule weekly meetings or need to arrange childcare. For others it feels like an opportunity to jump-start therapy without the pressure of feeling like things need to be resolved in an hour-long session.
Bespoke really just means tailored to you. While I use some of the same tools and exercises throughout my work, the intensives do not have a set curriculum. I take the information you share with me during a 30-minute video call and create a plan that is customized for your relationship needs.
What is provided, what do we bring?
I will provide all of the materials needed for the session, along with some snacks and water.
I will provide a list of nearby restaurants you can check out for lunch, and welcome you to bring a lunch, your favorite snacks, water, and your openness to growing together.
What is the time commitment?
Once we determine that an intensive session is the best fit for your relationship needs, we will meet for a 30-minute video call.
We will then schedule the intensive session, which offers 6 hours of couples therapy and a lunch break in the middle of the day.
How much does an intensive cost?
The total cost for a single-day intensive session is $2000. This total covers the 30-minute video call, the customized treatment plan, and the 6 hours of therapy on the day of the intensive session.
$100 will be due at the time of the video session and the remaining amount is due 3 days prior to the intensive session. If payment is not completed 3 days prior, I will reach out to discuss options, including rescheduling if needed.
What if we want more time?
While 6 hours is a solid amount of time, you may still feel there is more you want to accomplish by the end of the day. If this happens, I am more than happy to continue working with you and we can explore what this looks like further, ranging from a second scheduled intensive session, ongoing weekly sessions, or bi-weekly to monthly sessions, to ensure you feel confident with the next phase of your relationship.
Rates and additional information on these options will be provided at your request.
What if we need to reschedule or cancel?
If you need to reschedule, please let me know as soon as you can and I am more than happy to support you in rescheduling your intensive.
If you need to cancel, please let me know as soon as possible and before 10 days in advance. If you cancel within 10 days of your scheduled intensive session, you will be charged a $500 cancellation fee due to the time spent creating your treatment plan and curating your session. If you cancel within 24 hours or the day of the session, an additional $250 late cancellation/no-show fee will be applied, totalling $750 for no-shows or cancellations within 24 hours.
