Intensives

These intensives, lasting a few hours, day, a weekend, provide uninterrupted time to explore the dynamics affecting your partnership. By putting your relationship first, these sessions allow you to prioritize what truly matters  – connection, trust, and mutual understanding – while addressing underlying issues such as communication breakdowns, breaches of trust, and the impact of external influences, “thirds,” on your relationship.

Through this dedicated approach, you and your partner(s) can rebuild trust, enhance emotional intimacy, and move toward a healthier and more fulfilling connection rooted in security and collaboration.

Benefits of Intensive Therapy:

  • Creating a Secure-Functioning Relationship: Intensive therapy focuses on fostering a partnership based on trust, mutual respect, and shared goals, helping you and your partner(s) create a safe and supportive dynamic.
  • Prioritizing Your Relationship: By stepping away from the demands and distractions of daily life, these sessions create space to put your relationship first, allowing for meaningful progress and healing.
  • Addressing the Impact of “Thirds”: Whether external stressors, unresolved past experiences, or other influences affecting your relationship, intensive therapy provides the time and tools to engage and work through these challenges.
  • Deeper Emotional Connection: Extended sessions encourage vulnerability and openness, helping couples rebuild trust and intimacy on a profound level.

This immersive approach offers a unique opportunity for transformative breakthroughs, empowering you and your partner(s) to build a stronger, more secure, and deeply connected relationship.

Please Call Me by My True Names.
Thich Nhat Hanh 

Don’t say that I will depart tomorrow – even today I am still arriving.

Look deeply: every second I am arriving
to be a butt on the Spring branch,
to be a tiny bird, with still-fragile wings,
learning to sing in my new nest,
to be a caterpillar in the heart of a flower,
to be a jewel hiding itself in a stone.

I still arrive, in order to laugh and to cry,
to fear and to hope.

The rhythm of my heart is the birth and
death
of all that is alive.

I am the mayfly metamorphosing
on the surface of the river.
And I am the bird
that swoops down to swallow the mayfly.

I am the frog swimming happily
In the clear water of a pond.
And I am the grass-snake
that silently feeds itself on the frog.

I am the child in Uganda, all skin and
bones,
my legs as thin as bamboo sticks.
And I am the arms merchant,
selling deadly weapons to Uganda.

I am the twelve-year-old girl,
refugee on a small boat,
who throws herself into the ocean
after being raped by sea pirate.
And I am the pirate,
my heart not yet capable 
of seeing and loving.

I am a member of the politburo
with plenty of power in my hands.
And I am the man who has to pay
his “debt of blood” to my people
dying slowly in the forced-labor camp.

My joy is like Spring, so warm
it makes flowers bloom all over the Earth.
My pain is like a river of tears,
so vast it fills the four oceans.

Please call me by my true names,
so I can hear all my cries and my laughter
at once,
so I can see that my joy and pain are one.

Please call me by my true names,
so I can wake up,
and so the door of my heart
can be left open,
the door of compassion.
