Courageous Couples Workshop: Integrative Weekend Intensive

COURAGEOUS COUPLES WORKSHOP: Integrative Weekend Intensive

A live virtual couples retreat

February 13 - 15, 2026

Have you ever wanted to get into couples therapy but it feels like such a big investment of money, time, and vulnerability with a stranger? I’ve taken my years of working with couples and turned all of my best insights, tools, and strategies into live virtual retreats for couples that want to get right down to work with each other on what matters most in a relationship. If you both feel confident that you can implement everything learned in our course, I can give you all the tools you need to take your relationship on the brink to something you can’t help but brag about.

This program is designed to do the following:

1. bring clarity to both partners’ experience
2. reopen your empathy receptors and lines of loving and authentic communication
3. assess and address specific opportunities for personal and collective growth
4. and leave you with a toolkit to support yourselves and your partners through future disconnection

The 8 core principles outlined here will meet you wherever you are in your journey with your partner working with the past, present and future of your relationship. “New relationship energy” is intoxicating and something we all chase, lose, mourn and spend our lives trying to rediscover. Finding the sparks again in a long-term romance is absolutely possible, and I would argue essential, for a lasting, fulfilling partnership. However, it takes an active and intentional commitment to these 8 steps. When you give yourself over to this work, you will have the ability to continue this process on your own long after this course is over by:

• Healing the past
• Getting reconnected in the present
• Bulletproofing for the future
