Concierge Marriage Intensives
Customized 1-3 day EFT Therapy Retreats
Available locally in Chattanooga or as destination intensives, thoughtfully designed around your relationship’s unique needs.
Customized. Intentional. Focused.
Designed for Deep Repair, Connection & Renewal
You care deeply about each other—but lately, the relationship just feels… hard.
Maybe you’re stuck in the same arguments, missing each other again and again, or feeling chronically disconnected emotionally or sexually. You know you want things to be better, but finding the time—or access—for consistent therapy feels nearly impossible. Or perhaps there’s a sense of urgency, a desire to make things right and a willingness to do whatever it takes to turn things around.
A Concierge Marriage Intensive offers a different way forward.
Through an immersive, customized therapy experience, you’ll gain clarity on the patterns keeping you apart, begin transforming how you interact, and learn to communicate in ways that foster safety, responsiveness, and real connection. Intensives are designed to create momentum—helping couples reconnect emotionally, relationally, and sexually in a focused, intentional way.
I’m incredibly grateful to have spent nearly two decades helping couples find their way back to one another. By combining that experience with the powerful, research-driven approach of Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) in a concierge intensive format, we can make meaningful progress in a surprisingly short period of time.
I truly love this work and would be honored to help you discern whether a concierge marriage intensive is the right fit for you. Book a free consultation to talk things through today!
3 Days to Restore Your Relationship
You care deeply about each other, but lately, it feels like the relationship is just… hard. Maybe you’re stuck in the same old arguments, missing each other over and over again, or chronically disconnected sexually. You know you want things to be better, but finding time or access to regular therapy feels impossible, or maybe you’re just feeling that sense of urgency to make things right and willing to do whatever it takes to turn things around.
I’d love for you to consider a 3-Day EFT Intensive Retreat. In these three days of immersive therapy, you will get clarity on the dynamics keeping you apart, transform in the way you interact, learn to communicate powerfully and reconnect in the way you’ve been longing for. An intensive can be a great way to gain momentum towards finding each other again emotionally, relationally or sexually.

DISCLAIMER: In order to be a good candidate for an intensive I need to be able to foster an emotionally safe 3 days. Therefore not every couple is a good fit for intensives. Intensives are not recommended in cases of on-going affairs, untreated substance abuse/mental health issues, on-going intimate partner violence, or for couples where each partner does not have the same goal for counseling (i.e. one partner wants to save the relationship and the other wants to end it)

Where will the intensive be? Are meals and accommodations included?
My office is located near downtown Chattanooga. While lodging and meals are not included, Chattanooga has a lot of great restaurants and beautiful places to stay. I will provide a list of accommodations, as well as local restaurants that you may enjoy during your time here. My office is also located within walking distance to the Chattanooga Riverwalk, a lovely place to stroll during breaks.
What is Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT)?
Emotionally Focused Therapy is a research-based approach to couples therapy, based in attachment science, that helps partners understand the emotional patterns shaping their relationship. Rather than teaching surface-level communication skills, EFT focuses on strengthening emotional connection, helping couples feel safer, more understood, and more responsive to one another.
What results can we hope for?
There are no guarantees with any treatment but I hope you will get 3-6 months worth of therapy out of the 3 days. Expect to need some follow up work with myself or another therapist to help integrate the work you’ve done during the intensive into your everyday life to make sure it sticks!
Do you provide the follow up work we'll need?
If you’re a local TN couple, I’d love to continue working with you! But if you’re from out of state, I will ensure you get connected with the right therapist to continue the work you’ve begun.
