- Are you and your partner at a crossroads and experiencing significant problems?
- Do you need help now and don’t have time for multiple couples therapy sessions?
If so, Colorado Relationship Recovery offers a couples intensive.
A couples intensive is for couples in pain and their relationship needs to be fixed now. The purpose of an intensive is to get back on track relationally and to arm you with relational tools. They are designed to help you understand what’s wrong, how to fix it, and to highlight and expand what you’re doing right.
During our intensive, I will help you understand the crux of your issues and help you speak to the parts of each other that are vulnerable.
Conflict is inevitable in relationships and it’s important to be able to have conflict and be OK. It’s important to be able to fight fair and know how to repair effectively when you go off track.
Communication is difficult on a good day – as it’s influenced by attachment, arousal, body language, mood, memory, and perception. What could possibly go wrong?
During our time we will also do a personal attachment inventory (PAI) to help you understand where certain behaviors and tendencies may have come from. Understanding attachment science helps you have more empathy for your partner. It also helps you take certain behaviors less personally, and more importantly, know the antidote to certain fears.

Testimonial:
“My husband and I recently attended Jason’s Relationship Recovery Day. It was a great experience! He really helped us make a deep reconnection that we felt was lacking. He is friendly, empathetic, knowledgeable, and was a joy to work with. Jason also has a good sense of humor which made the day even better. He’s a great listener and had us do some really cool exercises that strengthened our relationship. We will definitely continue to see Jason from now on. He’s great at what he does!
If you are looking for a marriage therapist, or just wanting a tune-up, I highly recommend Jason. We have seen other therapists before and none of them are as skilled as he is. His exercises he had us do, and his ability to get to the heart of issues is amazing. We didn’t get lost in the weeds. I wish we would have found him years ago! We are so grateful to have found him now and for the future.
Thanks Jason! We are looking forward to more great experiences you have brought our relationship.”
