Couples Intensives: An Effective New Path for Couples Therapy
Couples work can be challenging, and partners often come in wanting fast results. Meanwhile, the traditional 1-hour weekly session has proven to be both frustrating and limiting for many couples and their therapists. The start and stop of weekly sessions leave clients wondering “Are we getting anywhere?” In this presentation, we will introduce you to a model for providing couples intensives that condense months of therapy into several days, and how to add this type of therapy to your practice. Participants will receive several handouts to support this new way of working.
