WHY AN INTENSIVE

More ground covered, 
in a fraction of the time.

Weekly sessions work well for many couples. But when things are urgent, or momentum keeps stalling between appointments, an intensive compresses months of work into one focused week.

Uninterrupted Focus

No two-week gaps for the hard conversation to lose steam. You stay in the work while it's fresh.

Assessment-Driven

Every intensive starts with real data, assessments and intake that shape a plan built around your relationship, not a generic script.

A Plan You Leave With

You walk out with a concrete followup plan and scheduled coaching, not just a good feeling that fades by Friday.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Three days. One clean direction.

Each intensive runs Monday through Wednesday and blends individual sessions, couples work, assessments, and planning so both the relationship and each partner individually get real attention.

  • Intake & Assessment - We start by understanding what's really going on, not just the surface conflict.

​

  • Individual + Couples Sessions - Each partner gets seen on their own, then the work happens together.

​

  • Treatment Planning - Before you leave, you have a concrete plan and homework, not just insight.

​

  • Built-in Followup - Every intensive includes scheduled followup so the progress holds.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Your questions about Intensives.

Does insurance cover an intensive?

Intensives are private pay and are billed separately from standard insurance-covered sessions.

How is an intensive different from weekly sessions?

Weekly therapy builds momentum slowly over months. An intensive compresses that same depth of work into a focused, multi-day format so nothing gets lost between appointments.

Is the polygraph included in the Sex Addiction Intensive?

No. The $3,200 fee covers the full intensive and materials for both individuals, but the polygraph itself is scheduled and billed separately through our approved examiner.

What happens after the intensive ends?

Every program includes built-in followup, one session within 30 days for the Couples Intensive, and four coaching sessions within 60 days for the Sex Addiction Intensive so the progress you make doesn't stall out.

How do we get started?
