Consider attending an intensive couples therapy retreat for critical relationship support
Are you wanting shorter, more frequent sessions? Looking to find anyone who can see you today? You may want to reconsider.
Dramatic blow-ups are usually the result of long-standing issues that need more permanent solutions.
Use this crisis time wisely. Locate help to feel heard and you’ll learn what to do when things get heated.
Our Couples Crisis Intervention Starts With An Assessment.
Unlike typical urgent marital assistance, you’ll start with a comprehensive “State of the Union” assessment. Our assessment instrument, we call “The BIG BIG Book,” and is completed from the privacy of your own home. This saves you time and provides your specialist with essential background.
It’s a private correspondence between you and your therapist. Speak freely and speak from your heart.
Our assessment isn’t just paperwork—it’s the beginning of your healing.
You’ll gain clarity even when your relationship feels like it’s in critical condition. Your specialist will analyze your responses to identify exactly what’s keeping you trapped, and most importantly, what will set you free.
The BIG BIG Book© is something we cannot rave highly enough about. The time and work on the frontend to fill it out was so worthwhile as it created a sense of safety. It really allowed us to go into the intensive de-burdened from the need to explain what’s happened in the past or how we got to this place and instead focus on the emotional work at hand to move forward. – Recent Client
The Advantage of Intensive Counseling for Couples on the Brink: Why Our Intensive Approach Works
“But I need crisis intervention NOW!” I hear this from every couple facing relationship crisis.
What my years of providing urgent couples counseling have taught me: The couples who take some time to properly prepare have dramatically better outcomes than those who rush into relationship rescue services unprepared.
Your relationship deserves more than band-aid solutions. While you wait for your intensive counseling weekend:
- You’ll complete our comprehensive assessment (1,864 questions that reveal patterns other intensive counseling misses)
- You’ll receive our Emergency Crisis Containment Guide with specific strategies to prevent further damage
- Your trained couples therapist will study your unique situation before you even arrive
- You’ll begin the emotional regulation work that makes productive intensive couples counseling possible
One husband told me: “I had finally found emergency couples counseling near me. But I was furious about waiting weeks for it. Now I realize those weeks of preparation did more for us than years of regular couples therapy sessions had done.”
Your marriage didn’t reach this crisis overnight. Taking two weeks to prepare properly for crisis marriage counseling isn’t a delay—it’s your greatest advantage.
Get clear feedback about the long-term state of your relationship (not just the crisis):
- What exactly is wrong with our relationship from a science perspective?
- Can we recover our intimate bond?
- Exactly what will it take to do that?
You’ll have a clear treatment plan to consider. Over a weekend, you’ll devote the time to talking it out and figuring out how you can relate better. Then you decide how to move forward.
Ask yourself:
- Would I try if we knew how to calm down, reconnect, and feel closeness again? What’s it worth to me to preserve my family?
- Should we try a divorce-busting specialist? Or just go to any available generalist on our insurance panel?
- Have we read about science-based methods demonstrated to be effective? Do we know about recent advancements in helping troubled marriages?
We know how to save a marriage on the brink of divorce
Few therapists choose to work with severely troubled couples in extreme couples therapy. Why do we specialize in couples on the brink of divorce?
When you fell in love, you looked forward to having a happy marriage, a healthy marriage. You never considered you’d end up in a failing marriage or wanting immediate help.
And many of you have sought out marriage counselors before coming to our intensives. You might have faithfully attended weekly therapy sessions. You expected to get real help. Instead of healing, however, you found that the drip, drip, drip of weekly sessions wasn’t enough.
That format didn’t provide the support system you needed to heal and repair your broken bonds. And chances are, you didn’t work with an evidence-based couples specialist.
“But I’ve already moved out…“
That means you should be fast-tracking it to get help.
“Moving out” does not have to mean it’s over unless that’s what you want it to mean.
You can pay the moving costs again. Real marital happiness is priceless.
If you’ve already separated, you now realize that this doesn’t suddenly fix everything. Living apart presents its own unique challenges.
Take a weekend and get the guidance you need to know how to proceed.
Dare to hope. Muster the courage to ask your spouse to try…again. You can stop divorce.
You once meant everything to each other. Could you fall in love again?
You know a lot is riding on your capacity to work things out. Your children. Your financial well-being. Even your mental health.
“”But this heartbreak is so unbearable…can relationship counseling truly offer relief?…”
Cold, numb and distant. Or fights filled with anger and animosity. It feels hopeless and futile to expect things to change.
And science of couples needing urgent help tells us why:
It’s called “Negative Sentiment Override.” Learn more about why it feels so hopeless.
