How a Couples Intensive Can Revive Connection and Create a Secure Relationship
One weekend. One commitment. A relationship reborn.
When you first fell in love, connection came naturally. You laughed easily, made time for each other, and imagined a future that felt like a safe haven.
But somewhere along the way—through the busyness, the breakdowns, or the betrayals—you lost your footing. Now, love feels more like walking on eggshells than walking hand-in-hand.
If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
And more importantly—there is a way back.
What if you didn’t have to wait months to feel close again?
Traditional therapy can be incredibly helpful, but let’s be honest—it’s slow. You have 50 minutes a week to dive into complex dynamics, often just as you’re beginning to open up.
A Couples Intensive changes everything.
It offers you the space, time, and therapeutic momentum to make real progress quickly—without the drip-feed of weekly sessions.
This isn’t just a “quick fix.” It’s a focused immersion designed to help you and your partner:
- Understand what’s really driving conflict beneath the surface
- Rebuild emotional safety and trust
- Improve communication through body awareness and attunement
- Experience the healing power of empathy, vulnerability, and co-regulation
Love doesn’t have to be so hard
Many couples come to me saying, “We love each other, but we can’t stop hurting each other.” Underneath the arguments and withdrawal, what they really want is to feel safe, seen, and secure together.
As a PACT therapist, I guide couples to create what we call a secure-functioning relationship—where both partners:
- Have each other’s backs
- Know how to repair after rupture
- Commit to fairness, mutual respect, and shared purpose
When your relationship feels secure, everything changes: intimacy deepens, communication softens, and daily life becomes more harmonious. Even sex and affection improve, because the nervous system finally feels safe enough to let go.
Why choose an Intensive?
Couples Intensives are ideal for partners who:
- Want more than surface-level change
- Are navigating big transitions (parenthood, loss, career stress)
- Feel stuck in reactive cycles and want to break free
- Thrive in focused environments and are ready to go deep
And for many couples, it’s the most efficient way to get back on track—before resentment builds or disconnection becomes the norm.

The Boulder experience: A setting that supports healing
There’s something potent about stepping out of your day-to-day stress and into a calming, natural environment. Whether we meet in my Boulder office or work virtually from the comfort of your home, I create a therapeutic space where you can exhale—and remember why you chose each other in the first place.
Don’t wait for rock bottom
Most couples wait too long before asking for help. They hope things will get better on their own. But healing doesn’t happen by avoiding—it happens by choosing to turn toward.
And sometimes, one courageous weekend can change the entire course of your relationship.
