Private Couples Therapy Intensives
Focused, discreet couples psychotherapy for couples who need meaningful time to work through the patterns keeping them stuck. Designed for couples whose careers, responsibilities, schedules, visibility, or circumstances make traditional weekly therapy difficult, or simply insufficient.
Virtual and private in-person options available.
Protected Time for Your Relationship
Some couples need more time than a traditional 50-minute session allows. Others have demanding careers, travel schedules, public visibility, leadership responsibilities, or privacy concerns that make weekly therapy difficult.
A couples intensive provides protected time to slow the cycle down, understand what is happening beneath the conflict, and work on the relationship without repeatedly stopping just as the conversation reaches the important material.
Privacy and discretion are important parts of the experience, within the normal legal and ethical limits of psychotherapy. These intensives welcome any appropriate couple who values privacy and concentrated care.
These intensives may be especially useful for executives, founders, physicians, attorneys, professional athletes, public figures, creators, entrepreneurs, and other couples whose schedules, responsibilities, or visibility make privacy and concentrated time especially important.
Private and Discreet Care
Some couples have careers, responsibilities, communities, or public-facing roles that make privacy especially important. Others simply prefer to keep relationship treatment separate from the rest of their lives.
Couples intensives are private to the couple. There are no groups, workshops, shared programming, or other couples participating in the intensive.
Discretion is an important part of the process. Inquiries, scheduling, and treatment are handled with careful attention to privacy, within the standard legal and ethical limits that apply to psychotherapy.
Intensive Formats
Each option is private, trauma-informed couples therapy. The consultation helps you choose based on the work in front of you.
Best for Focus
$2,000
One focused day for couples who can identify a specific recurring relationship pattern, conversation, or goal they want to work on.
Best for Depth
$3,500
Two consecutive days for couples whose concerns are more longstanding, layered, or interconnected.
Best for Getting Away From Daily Distractions
$6,000
Therapist travel and location expenses may apply depending on where the intensive is held and are discussed and agreed upon before scheduling.
A private two-day in-person option for couples who want to step away from their usual environment and devote protected time to focused clinical work.
Choosing the Pace
Choose one day when: the primary issue is fairly clear, the couple has a specific pattern or goal, and focused work is appropriate.
Choose two days when: there are multiple layers, the pattern is longstanding, trauma, betrayal, emotional disconnection, or several relationship themes are involved, and more time is likely to be needed for pacing and integration.
You do not need to decide this on your own. The free consultation is designed to help determine which format is the best fit.
The Work
The work stays with the relationship pattern itself, not with assigning blame to either partner.
More Continuity
In a standard therapy hour, an important conversation may only begin before the session has to end. An intensive creates more continuity to understand the cycle, slow reactions down, practice something different, and integrate what happened before leaving.
Weekly therapy and an intensive serve different needs. Weekly work offers steady support over time. An intensive offers protected clinical time when a focused format is appropriate.
Private In-Person Care
For couples who prefer to work together in person, a two-day private intensive can be arranged within one of the states where Chad is licensed.
Private in-person intensives are available by arrangement in Colorado, Indiana, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia. Depending on the location and the couple’s preferences, this may include a quiet professional setting, a coastal setting, or another appropriate private destination.
Location, therapist travel or location-related expenses, and intensive dates are confirmed before couples make personal travel arrangements. Coastal options may be available in Virginia and South Carolina.
This is private couples psychotherapy for one couple at a time, with a $6,000 clinical fee. It is not a retreat, romantic getaway, workshop, vacation package, or seminar. Client lodging, transportation, meals, recreation, hospitality, and other personal travel expenses are not part of the psychotherapy package.
The $6,000 clinical fee covers the private two-day intensive. Therapist travel and location expenses may apply depending on where the intensive is held. Any additional costs are discussed and agreed upon before the intensive is scheduled.
The setting supports the work; it is not the treatment.

Safety and Fit
Couples intensives are psychotherapy and follow the same professional confidentiality standards as other clinical care. The intensive itself is private to the couple, with no groups or shared programming. Standard legal and ethical limits to psychotherapy confidentiality still apply.
Yes. Intensives may be especially useful when careers, leadership roles, travel demands, public visibility, or schedules make weekly therapy difficult. The service is not limited to public figures or executives; any clinically appropriate couple who values privacy and concentrated clinical work may be a fit.
The free consultation considers your goals, safety, privacy, the relationship pattern, and whether one day, two days, virtual, or in-person care makes the most clinical sense.
Virtual intensives are available for clients located in Colorado, Indiana, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, or West Virginia at the time of service.
Private in-person intensives may be arranged in Colorado, Indiana, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia. The specific treatment setting is confirmed before travel arrangements are made. Coastal or destination-style settings may be available in select areas, but the intensive itself remains private clinical couples psychotherapy.
The $6,000 fee covers the clinical intensive. Therapist travel and location expenses may apply and are discussed and agreed upon before scheduling. Couples are responsible for their own lodging, transportation, meals, and other personal travel expenses.
No. Active or recent violence, coercive control, intimidation, threats, severe instability, untreated addiction, or a situation where either partner cannot speak freely are not appropriate for couples intensive work.
