RLT Intensives
You've built a life that works.
Now let's build the relationship to match.
RLT intensives offer a focused, accelerated path to transforming your most important relationships through Relational Life Therapy. If you have been searching for lasting change in how you connect with your partner or navigate relational patterns that keep showing up, this approach provides the depth that weekly sessions often cannot deliver. I created this format because meaningful transformation sometimes requires dedicated, uninterrupted time.
RLT intensives at my practice are designed for high-functioning adults and couples in their 20s, 30s, and 40s ready to move beyond surface-level conversations. My work is grounded in a biopsychosocial approach that honors the complexity of being human, recognizing that our relationships are shaped by the interplay between our biology, psychology, and social world.

What Is Relational Life Therapy?
Developed by Terry Real, RLT is a direct approach to helping individuals and couples break free from stuck patterns. It combines psychoeducation with practical skills training and real-time intervention. We do not just talk about what is happening in your relationships. We actively work to shift how you show up in them.
RLT addresses the relational dynamics inherited from families of origin, including patterns of grandiosity (being one-up) and shame (being one-down). I help you recognize these patterns with compassion while developing skills to step into "full respect living," honoring both yourself and your partner equally.
Why Choose an Intensive Format?
Weekly therapy means constantly rebuilding momentum. An intensive changes this entirely. Working over consecutive days creates sustained, focused attention on your relationships. We go deeper, practice new skills repeatedly, and build on insights before they fade. For couples, dedicated time away from daily demands allows both partners to fully engage with the process.
Couples Counselling Intensive Options
All couples begin with a customized Couple Counselling Intensive. You will choose between two options:
Exploration Intensive: A shorter process to build clarity and address a specific challenge.
Deepening Intensive: A sustained process for deeper repair and long-term transformation.

Individual Intensive Sessions
Individual work focuses on your relational patterns across all connections. Even without a partner present, this work is profoundly transformative. We explore your relational history, identify adaptive patterns, and cultivate new ways of being that align with who you want to become.

Curious About Working Together?
ReaI believe that investing in therapy is one of the most meaningful commitments you can make to yourself and your relationships. My approach is tailored to meet you where you are, whether you're seeking focused, accelerated progress through an Intensive or prefer the steady rhythm of Weekly Sessions.
My approach integrates Brainspotting, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Relational Life Therapy (RLT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) within a biopsychosocial framework. This means I'm not just listening to your words, I'm attuning to how your body holds memory, how your nervous system responds to stress, and how your daily habits either support or hinder the healing process.
