INTENSIVES CAN MOVE YOU MORE QUICKLY TO YOUR DESTINATION

INTENSIVES

Intensives are becoming a popular way for individuals to receive the help they need in one, two, or three days of focused therapeutic counseling. Some of us do not have the luxury of time. Intensives are helpful in pursuing goals, creating breakthroughs in stuck places without interruption, and transform lives. Challenges in life can cause a need for us to gain wisdom, make decisions, and move more quickly than the standard one-hour weekly sessions can provide. The intensive is created to specifically meet the need of an individual, couple. and/or family. If you are wanting to address issues of your past, understand how to grow and move through your present challenges, or uncover blocks to your heart’s desire without interruption and gain momentum in your life, an intensive may be exactly what you need. Intensives are scheduled in half-day or full-day blocks based on the needs of the client. Please inquire about our intensive pricing.
