Why Couples Haven for Your Relationship Therapy Needs?

You’ve tried to put in the work, but realize something profound has got to change. Maybe you’ve been meaning to get starting in couples therapy, but weekly schedules are so hectic, and you have no interest in putting your relationship on hold to sit on a waitlist for couples counseling near Charlotte, North Carolina (sometimes for months!).

If this is familiar, Couples Haven was designed specifically with you in mind! I realize how important it is to DO the work, not simply endure the hardships. I see so many couples forget to date each other—or, more importantly, forget HOW to date each other!

Quite often, the safety and mutual trust to share these thoughts has diminished, leaving them stuck and fearing the scary “D” word (divorce!). Let’s revamp your connection before it gets to that point. Start online or in-person marriage counseling today!

My Approach

A central focus of my work is experiential, which means that I believe experiences (emotional responses, activities, role-plays, etc.) within the session is the foundation for growth and healing.

This means that you can expect to leave couples therapy sessions having experienced connectedness and grown your intimacy in real time. Your shared emotional experiences, beliefs, perceptions are the heart of connection. Together, we will rediscover a strong, safe attachment for your relationship, allowing you to interact in new and meaningful ways.

Couples Therapy Intensives

Welcome to the VIP of therapy for couples! If you’re looking for relief from your concerns now, couples therapy intensives were designed just for you. Couples intensives are powerful, potent, short-term therapy sessions designed to address specific issues or achieve significant progress in a brief period, often involving multiple hours of therapy over a few days or weeks.

The accelerated transformation that a retreat-style couples counseling intensive provides is for those who want to experience deep dive healing, without disruption to their weekly work/home life. Traditional 50-minute therapy models limit deep dive work, leaving many couples waiting for relief to unpack when they return the following week.

Relationship intensives are tailored to your relationship concerns, allowing you to experience months of therapy in 1-3 days, allowing you to get to the root of your issues and goes beyond what ‘primary care’ offers. Most clients who prefer an intensive want immediate relief, uninterrupted progress—free from distractions—saving them time and money in the long run.
