RETREATS

Couples Intensive Weekend Retreats

Couples Intensive Weekend Retreats for Relationship Renewal are designed for couples seeking a private, more meaningful experience than traditional weekly marriage counseling. Whether you're looking to jump-start your relationship repair, facing a crisis, or not making progress with traditional counseling, these retreats offer profound results in a shorter time.

Why Choose Intensive Retreats?

  • Intense and Focused: This approach addresses your relationship issues more profoundly and rapidly than traditional counseling.

​

  • Private Experience: Unlike group retreats, it's just you and your partner working directly with me for two and a half days.

​

  • Neutral Environment: Held in a quiet, resort location, away from your usual environment, allowing us to focus on necessary tools and skills for relationship renewal.

​

  • All-Inclusive: Includes all meals and snacks, except for a Saturday night date-night dinner for just the two of you.

​

  • Structured Follow-Up: Designed to keep you on track and monitor progress over time.

Benefits

  • Rapid Progress: Achieve more in a condensed time frame compared to months of weekly counseling.

​

  • Customized Focus: Personalized attention on the specific issues impacting your relationship.

​

  • Relaxed Setting: A stress-free environment helps in breaking old habits and learning new communication skills.

How Does It All Work Exactly?

  • Before Your Retreat: Prior to the retreat, I will collect information from both of you to tailor the experience to your specific needs and circumstances.

​

  • Investment Comparison: The cost of a private retreat is comparable to several months of weekly marriage counseling but typically yields more effective and quicker results. For dates, availability, and pricing, please contact me for more details.

​

  • Retreat Structure: My retreats focus on couples unhappy and dissatisfied in their relationship, providing an intensive counseling experience that delves deeper than regular sessions. Many couples attending have tried traditional counseling but haven’t seen the desired results.

​

  • Retreat Locations: Retreats are offered throughout the year in Athens, GA, Atlanta, GA, and other beautiful resort locations.

​

  • Post-Retreat Follow-Up: The retreat is just the beginning. We will have a series of follow-up conversations via Skype, Facetime, or phone to discuss your progress and keep you on track.

​

  • My Role: With over 25 years of experience as a licensed psychologist, I help couples navigate issues like alienation, breaches of trust, and struggles with power. I offer a nonjudgmental, empathetic approach, fostering better communication, intimacy, and friendship. My goal is to provide a forum for complete disclosure and frank discussion necessary for healing and growth.
