Couples therapy intensives offer an immersive alternative to weekly sessions, providing a dedicated space to slow down, understand what’s happening beneath the conflict, and rebuild emotional safety. Grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and IFIO (Intimacy from the Inside Out, i.e. IFS for couples), these intensives help couples move out of reactive patterns and into deeper connection.
