Choose Your Intensive Couples Counselling Experience...

Intensive couples counselling is a focused way to work on your relationship in longer sessions or concentrated blocks of time, rather than relying only on weekly appointments.

It gives you more time to explore difficult patterns, work through important issues and build momentum while you are together in the therapeutic process.

Some couples prefer an immersive experience over two or three days, with dedicated time away from everyday distractions. Others prefer regular double sessions, giving them more time to work deeply during each appointment, while still having space between sessions to reflect, practise new skills and grow within a supportive program.

I offer two flexible intensive couples therapy options:

A private Couples Counselling Retreat in McCrae on the Mornington Peninsula, with full days devoted to your relationship.

The Save My Marriage Program, delivered through extended in-person or online sessions at a pace tailored to your needs.

Both options are designed for couples who want to work deeply, make meaningful progress and create lasting change without the stop-start rhythm of occasional single sessions.

1. Couples Counselling Retreat

An Empowering & Refreshing Escape

How does this sound: Two full days devoted entirely to your relationship. No distractions – just you and your partner, immersed in meaningful conversations, breakthroughs, and a renewed sense of connection…

This is the Couples Counselling Retreata focused intensive couples therapy experience built on the foundation of my trusted Save My Marriage Program.

Held in beautiful McCrae on the Mornington Peninsula, just south of Melbourne, this couples therapy retreat blends therapeutic depth with tranquillity.

Over two or three days (flexible), we’ll dive deeply into the areas that matter most to you, using a proven framework tailored specifically to your needs.

You’ll stay on-site in our private, spacious unit with stunning bay views – a setting designed to offer both comfort and reflection.

With full-day sessions, we can go deeper and build momentum, improving communication, rebuilding trust, and creating a healthy path forward, without the ‘stop-start’ rhythm of traditional single sessions.

This Retreat is your chance to rekindle your connection, and wholeheartedly invest in the future of your marriage or relationship for lasting change.

2. Save My Marriage Program

Repair and Revitalise Your Relationship

More than just Couples Counselling, this program is designed for committed couples who are ready for deep change and renewed connection.

The Save My Marriage Program is a structured pathway, with helpful resources to guide you every step of the way towards a happier, healthier relationship.

The Program also forms the foundation of my Couples Counselling Retreat.

With 12 therapeutic sessions, we’ll work deeply through the patterns that keep you stuck – addressing the past, making sense of what’s happening now, and creating the “aha” moments that lead to real breakthroughs.

And if you’re looking for a more intensive marriage counselling pace, we can tailor the structure to suit you.

Double sessions are a popular choice to build momentum, especially when working through sensitive issues like broken trust, infidelity, ongoing conflict, emotional disconnection, or anything else fracturing the relationship.

Every session is tailored to your needs, and guided by insights from your Gottman assessments and our time together. This means we focus on what matters most and make meaningful progress without dragging things out.

If an intensive Couples Counselling approach feels right for you, explore the Save My Marriage Program to learn more, or get in touch for a free short chat about what’s going on for you.

Live further away? No problem, we can easily work together with online couples counselling.

Or if you prefer a single block of time to work on your relationship, consider the Couples Counselling Retreat.

Whatever you choose, you’re in safe hands. With over 25 years of counselling experience, including the last 9 years specialising in couples therapy, I’m here to guide you both every step of the way.
