Private 3 Day INTENSIVES for Couples

3 Day Intensives foster greater closeness, love, and connection in a brief period of time. We focus on emotion, the agent of change, not just problem solving.

During your 3 Day Intensive we will explore your negative cycle and make sense of your stuck places. This de-escalation process allow us to access core emotions and reach new levels of engagement, leading to bonding moments and corrective experiences. As we make sense of the pain and reactivity of your negative cycle, we progressively uncover the core fears and vulnerable longings under that pain. Reaching for one another from a new and softer place of longing, creates new positive experiences that strengthen attachment bonds. As you learn to successfully reach and respond to one another, emotional safety grows and the protective and reactive moves found in the negative cycle (shutting down, criticizing, blaming, and withdrawing) are no longer necessary.

This intensive structure of block sessions with breaks offers repetition, while allowing for enough space to digest these new experiences, which maximizes progress. The 3 Day Intensive is the equivalent of 6 months of weekly couples therapy, offering greater relief in a shorter period of time.

The total cost of the Intensive is $3500. This includes 3 days (up to 13 hours) of couples therapy by an ICEEFT Certified EFT Therapist, an initial consultation prior to your Intensive, and a follow up session 1 week after the Intensive (Telehealth or in person).

Contact Jessie to set up an initial consultation.

Emotionally Focused Therapy

SECURING STRONG BONDS FOR A LIFETIME

Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) is a structured approach to therapy that was born out of attachment and bonding science. This research shaped the model of EFT and informs the EFT therapist as he/she serves as a process consultant for clients, seeking to repair their relationships and form stronger bonds with one another. EFT can be used to treat couples, individuals, and families. EFT is an evidence-based practice that consistently yields effective results for all kinds of couples worldwide, regardless of the presenting issues. These distressed couples being helped by EFT include partners impacted by attachment injuries, depression, anxiety, past trauma (PTSD), and chronic illness.

Research shows that 70-75% of couples move from distress to recovery and approximately 90% show significant improvements, after having received EFT. In some cases, such as ongoing abuse in the relationship, EFT may not be appropriate as safety is a necessary component for effective EFT.

In therapy, my goal is to help you restructure the bond with your partner so that you can enjoy a more secure connection with one another. EFT is a structured approach that seeks to help you and your partner 1. de-escalate and 2. restructure your bond, leading to a more secure connection and greater intimacy. It is essential that you both come to couples’ sessions, to achieve this goal. Should one of you not be able to keep an appointment, the couple session will need to be rescheduled. In EFT, your relationship is the main client and my highest priority will be to focus on strengthening the bond between the two of you. If individual issues arise which must be handled first, such as chemical dependency, emotional or physical abuse, or an on-going affair, I may recommend delaying couple sessions until these issues are resolved. Confidentiality policies also change in couples counseling; please know, I cannot keep secrets as this hampers my ability to form trust with both of you and help you form a more secure connection. If you ask me to hold a secret, I will remind you of this and help you talk to your partner in a sensitive manner.

Sometimes relationships are not repaired, despite participating in couples counseling. In cases such as this, I will not pressure you into any decision, but rather support you both and help you transition. Only you and your partner can make the decision to separate or divorce. If one or both partners want individual counseling after making this decision, I will help you and your partner find another therapist.

Structure: EFT work with couples typically requires 15-35 sessions to progress through the three stages of EFT. If past trauma or attachment injuries are present, the process could take longer. Typically, our first session will be together (both partners), followed by an individual session with each of you. Subsequent sessions will be together. Weekly sessions are recommended.

If you’re interested in learning more about EFT, I recommend the book HOLD ME TIGHT by Dr. Sue Johnson, the founder of EFT.
