Intensive Couples Therapy in Murrieta & Across California
Reignite Your Connection. Remember Why You Fell in Love.
Intensive couples therapy for partners that are ready for change and reconnection on every level.
You feel more like roommates than partners.
✺ You feel buried under parenting, schedules, and endless responsibilities.
✺ Some days it feels like you’re just passing each other in the kitchen.
✺ Other days it feels like every conversation turns into conflict.
✺ The connection you once had feels out of reach — and you wonder if it’s even possible to get back.
✺ You try to talk, but it either blows up, shuts down, or you don’t get anywhere.
maybe you’ve caught yourself asking…
Can we fix this?
Is it too late to feel close again?
Maybe this is just what parenting does to a relationship?
The truth is, you don’t have to settle for silence, disconnection, or “just getting through.” You can find your way back to each other.
Our work will help you reconnect, rebuild trust, and restore the love that brought you together.
Stop Settling for “This Is Just How It Is”
Many people think parenting just means sacrificing your relationship. That it’s normal to drift apart. That passion fades, connection slips, and the best you can do is keep things functional.
That’s a lie. You can do things differently.
You might feel stuck in patterns that seem impossible to escape, but you can interrupt and stop those patterns. It’s not too late to feel close again.
What is intensive couples therapy?
Weekly couples counseling often takes months — even years — to see the changes you want. Just when you’re finally opening up, the 50-minute clock runs out. Intensive therapy takes place over 2-3 days and offers you something different:
-
See change in a weekend, not years. Extended time lets you stay with the hard conversations and uncover what’s really driving your disconnection.
Intensives condense months of therapy into one focused weekend, leading to faster breakthroughs and lasting results.
-
Weekly therapy often ends just as things get real. Intensives give you the time to finish the conversation so you don’t walk away in the middle of conflict.
Instead of hitting pause on important moments, intensives let you keep going until you feel clarity and connection.
-
Instead of circling the same arguments week after week, you’ll actually work through them and come out with clarity.
-
In our time together you’ll uncover the deeper patterns driving your disconnection and learn new ways to break free from them.
-
Weekly therapy requires a longer commitment to see results which also adds up when you’re paying $250-400 every week for support.
With an intensive format you can get to the root of the issue and see results in a weekend instead of months or years.
How Can Intensive Couples Therapy Help?
A couples intensive gives you the tools and the time to:
✺ Understand what’s keeping you apart.
✺ Communicate better — without blow-ups or silence.
✺ Reignite intimacy — emotionally and physically.
✺ Feel like partners again, not just co-parents.
✺ Break free from the roommate zone.
✺ Take home practical tools that last.
my approach
As a relationship specialist, I use two of the most trusted, research-backed approaches for relational healing:
From Gottman Method Couples Therapy: You’ll learn practical tools to talk without fighting or shutting down, so you can feel heard and understood.
From Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): We will explore the patterns that hold you back. We will help you feel safer, more connected, and closer to each other.
We don’t just manage surface arguments — we uncover what’s going on underneath and give you the skills to build lasting change.
how a couples intensive works
-
Schedule a call to talk through what’s going on, ask questions, and see if an intensive is the right fit for you.
-
Choose your assessment date and intensive date. You’ll complete intake forms that will help me understand your relationship and the pain points you most want to focus on.
-
In your 90-min assessment session we’ll explore the main issues you want to address. Each person in the relationship will be able to share their individual experience, so I understand each partner’s point of view.
This gives me a clear picture of your dynamic, so I can create a plan and individualized workbooks designed for your relationship needs.
-
In our time together, we’ll:
Set ground rules to make it a safe space
Learn coping tools to use if things feel overwhelming
Uncover the cycle that keeps you stuck
Work through hard conversations with my guidance
Use your personalized workbook to keep progress going between sessions
Learn practical tools you can use long after the intensive ends
-
Start deepening a relationship where you feel safe, seen, heard, loved and connected.
