Sharp Wellness’s couple intensives help couples in severe crisis situations as well as couples who require in-depth counseling or may simply find themselves stuck and needing help progressing in their relationship.

Sharp Wellness couple’s intensives provide uninterrupted time, which allows our counselors to help you make the progress you want.

Connecting, Healing, and Restoring Loving Relationships.

You have been in a relationship for some time and now you are both feeling the strain of daily life, disconnection, or perhaps something more. You feel as if you both don't know how to communicate, or that you are in a rut. Or, maybe you're in the early years of marriage and need help learning how to manage conflict. You want to learn skills to fight differently and manage the conflict without feeling overwhelmed and defeated.

Perhaps, you're a couple who has been together for a long time. You need help reconnecting because you have become so busy with family and work, that your conversations have become dry and task-oriented. Maybe you're feeling like roommates or that you've outgrown each other. Or, you've discovered that infidelity has shattered your trust and you're feeling lost, questioning the cause and the way forward.

You both want to explore how to heal and restore the loving relationship that you once had. Or talk through the possibility of starting fresh. You both need support and guidance to help you. At Sharp Wellness in McKinney, TX our therapists offer a range of Couples Intensives to do just that.

Who are Couples Intensive Service Packages for?

Our couples intensive service packages are designed for all couples. In any and every stage of their relationship. This can include pre-marital counseling, crisis counseling, infidelity/affairs, addiction, and trauma.  For example, you can be a couple considering marriage and need help with pre-marital counseling. Or you can be a couple in crisis who needs help learning how to communicate openly, build trust, and manage conflict.

No matter what stage your relationship is in, we have a package that can be tailored to meet your needs. That can help you both reconnect, heal past wounds, and restore the love that you once had.

Our Couples Intensives Packages

At Sharp Wellness, we have three main couples intensive packages. But we also have the option to customize a package specifically for you. Because your relationship is unique, and your needs are too.

Boost: 4-Hour Intensive

This package offers four continuous hours of intense counseling for couples who need a quick pick-me-up or refresher after some time away from counseling. It is incredibly helpful if you've successfully completed counseling and need a quick boost to brush up on your skills. Or, if you're a couple that's got a tight schedule and can't make it to regular weekly sessions. It's also great for couples who want a jumpstart on their counseling program. In this session, you will get a jump start on building fondness and admiration along with identifying unhelpful conflict patterns.

Reconnect: 6-Hour Intensive

This package offers six continuous hours of intensive counseling for couples who need a more in-depth approach. A reconnection intensive may be right for you and your partner if you are wanting to reconnect with your partner but find yourself at a loss on how to do it.  In this intensive, you will work with your therapist to develop an individualized treatment plan customized just for you and your relationship. You and your partner will spend a whole day focusing on each other and building the foundation to better manage conflict. In this session, you will have time to focus on exploring your history, building fondness and admiration for each other, and practicing intimate conversations.

Reconnect and Rebuild: 2-Day Intensive

This package offers two full days of intensive counseling for couples who need to reconnect and rebuild their relationship. It is ideal for couples that see or feel that they are constantly in conflict, stuck in unhelpful patterns, and unable to break out of a negative cycle. This intensive truly focuses on your relationship. During the 2 days, you and your partner will reconnect with one another in a safe, non-judgmental space. You will practice how to productively have conflict, learn how to build trust, and truly accept one another warts and all. This session will include all the focuses above and include identifying perpetual problems, disrupting unhelpful patterns, and conflict management skills practice.

What are the Benefits of the Couples Intensive Service Packages?

The couple’s intensives offer many benefits and will help you and your partner strengthen your connection.

The Length

The length of the intensives is important because research shows that when couples front-load their therapy and taper off, they often feel an immediate impact with longer-lasting effects.

Clients have also mentioned how having the longer allotted time allows them to really unpack and explore their issues, which they are often unable to do in a 50-minute session. Leaving the clients to barely scratch the surface before they leave the office for the week. The couple still being unable to process what has been brought up in the session.

Decrease Relapse Rate

Also, when completing the intensives, the rate of relapse decreases. Meaning, for couples, that they won't be in therapy forever. That they can heal past wounds, and ultimately restore the love that they once had. This can be a concern for couples who are already feeling disconnected and not sure about therapy.

Clients Stay Engaged

When people feel a sense of relief and reconnect sooner, they are more likely to stay in and complete their therapy. Because when it takes longer to see results, it can be discouraging and people often discontinue therapy before seeing the real benefits. In couples intensives, you are given the space and time to dive into the work that you need to. To develop a plan and create small achievable goals that will help you reach the result of a stronger, healthier relationship.

Let Us Help You Connect, Heal, and Restore Your Relationship

At Sharp Wellness, we have worked with many couples who have needed a more intense approach to their relationship. Before our intensives, the couples we worked with were disconnected, struggling to hear one another, and stuck in negative cycles. Or, feeling like roommates, who no longer had true intimacy or connection.

Our Couples Intensives Are Designed With You and Your Partner In Mind.

However, after completing our intensive packages, they left with a deeper understanding of their partner, strategies to better manage their conflict, and the ability to reach out for connection when they're feeling disconnected. With an increased level of trust and understanding, these couples have been able to rebuild their relationship and be successful in the long term.

Our Approach to Couples Intensives

Whether you are just starting out or have been together for decades, our Gottman-based approach will help you build a strong foundation to move forward as a couple.  Our approach is centered around state-dependent learning in the session, as per the Gottman Method. So, instead of hearing and processing things in the session, and going home to figure out how to implement them, we practice in session.

This method of learning allows you and your partner to practice in real time, with feedback from your therapist. This gives you the confidence to implement these changes outside of the session and helps build your relationship. So you can better identify perpetual problems, disrupt unhelpful patterns, and practice conflict management skills.
