An intensive is one extended therapy session — 6 hours in one day — rather than many short weekly sessions spread out over years. Think of it as a private retreat day dedicated entirely to your relationship healing and growth.

Instead of traditional 50-minute weekly appointments, we work together for an entire day once a month for about a year, creating deep, focused transformation without the "start and stop" disruption of weekly therapy.

The traditional 50-minute weekly session model was created by insurance companies (not neuroscience or relationship science) and only exists because it’s easier to bill, not because it’s the most effective way to heal, especially for couples when two partners involved.

No, and that’s because I care about getting you the best possible results.

Based on hundreds of couples I’ve worked with over the past 15+ years, I’ve found that deep, intensive work is what actually creates lasting change.

Traditional one-hour weekly sessions often stop right when things get uncomfortable or when real breakthroughs are about to happen. The clock runs out, and you’re told, “See you next Thursday,” even though you were just getting somewhere.

In my intensive work, we don’t stop when it gets hard. We stay with it. We go deep. And we help rewire your brain and nervous system in ways that talking for 1 hour between work meetings and kids pick ups can’t.

One 6-hour intensive is the equivalent of 10+ weeks of traditional therapy, compressed into one powerful day, so you can finally breathe again and start showing up as the partner (and parent) you want to be RIGHT AWAY!

Each intensive is $3,000

Listen, I’ll be honest with you.

Healing takes time. While every case is unique and I don’t know exactly how long it will take, this is what I do know:

The couples who experience the most meaningful progress commit to once a month 1 day (6 hours a day) intensive for approximately 12 months. This creates safety, continuity, and measurable transformation.

I get it — that sounds like a lot. But it took years to get to where you are, and it won’t take just a few hours to fully heal. Healing is a process, and consistency matters.

That said, each 6-hour intensive is powerful. From the very first day, you’ll be able to breathe easier, feel hopeful, and start experiencing real shifts in your relationship.

I say all this to be completely transparent about how I work, so I don’t waste your time.

No, I do not take insurance

Couples come for an intensive once a month.

When you decide to work with me, I require that we schedule your first 6 intensives in advance — so six months out — so your healing stays consistent and prioritized.

For most couples, the full process takes around 12 months (give or take).
Some couples need a little more time, some a little less, depending on the depth of what we’re healing and how quickly changes stabilize.

This monthly intensive rhythm allows your brain and nervous system time to integrate the work while still creating steady, powerful progress.

I do offer limited 50-minute Zoom check-in sessions between intensives.

These sessions are $500 each and are designed for couples who need support if an intensive was rescheduled or if something urgent comes up, so you don’t have to wait several more weeks before connecting.

Because my practice is intentionally small and focused on intensive work, these sessions are limited and offered as availability allows. They’re meant to support your progress, not replace the deep work of the full intensives.

My office is located in downtown Wake Forest, North Carolina.

It’s a private, comfortable space designed specifically for deep, focused work with couples and individuals.

All 6-hour intensive sessions are in person.

I believe that being together in a private, focused space allows for the deep, uninterrupted work that creates real breakthroughs, something that can’t be fully replicated online.

Absolutely. You don’t need to know exactly what kind of intensive or modality is right for you before we talk — that’s what I’m here for.

When we connect, I’ll take the time to understand your situation, hear your story, and share my recommendations for the approach that will help you and your relationship the most.

Whether it’s an EFT intensive, Brainspotting Intensive, or Ketamine Intensive, we’ll figure out the right path together.

Yes! Couples travel here from all over.

Depending on our mutual availability, some couples prefer to schedule 2–3 day intensives back-to-back in one trip for maximum impact. Other couples prefer to fly in monthly for just a single intensive day and have a mini couples trip. It’s whatever works best for your situation.

We’ll work together to find a schedule that fits your travel needs while still keeping the consistency needed for real progress.

Yes! I offer solo intensives as well.

Yes, you can absolutely do intensives with me while continuing weekly therapy with another therapist. In fact, this is a very effective setup. I regularly collaborate with other clinicians who refer couples to me for intensive work when weekly sessions alone aren’t creating enough movement to get them over the edge. Weekly therapy can be incredibly supportive for integration and continuity, while a 6-hour intensive allows us to slow things down, go much deeper, and create the emotional shifts that are hard to reach in 50-minute sessions. With your consent, I’m happy to coordinate care so the work is aligned and complementary rather than duplicative or confusing. Think of intensives as a powerful boost that helps unblock stuck patterns and makes ongoing weekly therapy more productive and effective, not something that replaces your existing therapist unless you choose that path yourself.
