COUPLES INTENSIVES
3HR SESSION — £300
Face to face in Hassocks, West Sussex or online via Zoom
Some couples want to get into the work quickly and deeply rather than building gradually week by week. The Couples Intensive is designed for exactly that — three hours together that would otherwise take weeks of weekly sessions to cover.
HOW IT WORKS
The Intensive runs as a half-day block on Tuesday mornings (9.15am–12.30pm) and can be structured in one of two ways:
Option A — 1:1’s plus Consolidation Session
9.15am–10.15am — 1:1 session with partner #1
10.20am–11.20am — 1:1 session with partner #2
11.30am–12.30pm — Couple Consolidation Session
Option B — Couple Session
9.15am–10.45am — Couple session
Break (15 mins)
11.00am–12.30pm — Couple session
KEY BENEFITS OF THE INTENSIVE:
Efficiency — three weeks' worth of sessions compressed into one half-day, fast-tracking the work.
Focus — three hours of deep, undivided attention on you and your relationship.
Flow — extended time means we find a real rhythm, and progress feels immediate.
THE PROCESS
Our first step is always an Initial Consultation — 60 minutes, £90 — to establish mutual fit before committing to the Intensive. Following the Intensive, some couples move into weekly sessions to continue and deepen the work, others choose to solely utilise the intensives, booking additional blocks as needed.
