Relationship Transformation Programs

Why choose an immersive session over regular counselling sessions?

Research shows immersive, time-intensive sessions are more effective than individual counselling sessions. I can certainly attest to that, from observing other practitioners’ work and my own experience.

There are several advantages to immersive sessions:

1. Increased efficiency - For most couples, it takes time to really unpack the relationship - as this is not something most people are used to doing. Therefore a 60-minute and even a 90-minute session are not enough to thoroughly explore the key issues a couple is dealing with.

2. Enhanced processing - Processing deep emotions works best when there is plenty of time to do so. This means that going slowly, with sufficient space to think, listen and reflect brings the best therapeutic results.

3. Additional benefits - longer sessions need more time and commitment from a couple, meaning that the partners take them more seriously. This means that just the decision to do an immersive program together can renew the couple's commitment to each other and make you feel like a stronger team.

4. Practicality – attending weekly sessions can be a big burden on your family’s logistics, managing work and childcare responsibilities for weeks and months. Doing a time-limited program takes away the need for regular sessions and the need for juggling calendars.

Aly, what can I say ?? You gave us the tools and space to reconnect in an amazing way. We were in our own little love bubble and decided to add to our family with another baby. If it was a girl I’d probably call her Aly!! We still have challenges, but we are so much better equipped to handle them now and in a much better place. Thank you thank you thank you !!!!

Programs & Prices

INTRODUCTORY SESSION

Before embarking on one of the couples immersive program options, it is essential to check that there is a good fit between the couple and the therapist.

Therefore all couples wanting to take part in one of the programs meet with the therapist for an introductory 90-minute session.

During this session, the therapist and the couple assess the desired outcomes and whether the therapist would be able to help the couple achieve these goals.

The cost of this 90-minute session is $330.
