Focused time, catalyst for change.

INTENSIVES

LIFE IS FULL, I NEED A QUICK START

A counseling intensive is an immersive therapeutic experience— typically 4+ hours —created for individuals or special relationships that want to make meaningful progress in a shorter amount of time.

Unlike a standard 50-minute session, intensives provide extended time and space to dig beneath surface issues, break old patterns, and build new tools for healing and growth. This approach allows you to:

  • Gain clarity more quickly

  • Address long-standing challenges in depth

  • Experience focused support without the stop-and-start of weekly therapy

  • Leave with a personalized roadmap for continued growth

At The Courage Well, you can choose from pre-structured intensives like:

  • Parent–Child Counseling Intensive

  • Women’s Betrayal Recovery Intensive

or we can design a custom intensive together, tailored to your unique needs and goals.

Intensives are especially helpful during major life transitions, relationship crises, or seasons where you feel stuck and need concentrated support to move forward.

They’re not a replacement for ongoing therapy, but rather a catalyst for change—a way to accelerate progress and lay the foundation for lasting healing.

Parent–Child Counseling Intensive

Strengthening Bonds • Healing Together • Building Hope

The Parent–Child Counseling Intensive is a focused, short-term therapeutic experience designed to help families navigate difficult seasons, strengthen connection, and develop tools for lasting change.

Unlike traditional weekly therapy, this intensive provides extended sessions over one or two consecutive days, allowing parents and children to go deeper, faster. With space set aside from daily distractions, families can identify unhelpful patterns, address underlying hurts, and begin building healthier ways of relating.

What to Expect

  • Collaborative Sessions: Both joint and individual time for parents and children to share openly, guided by a skilled therapist.

  • Skill-Building: Practical tools for communication, conflict resolution, emotional regulation, and rebuilding trust.

  • Healing Focus: A safe environment to process pain points—such as frequent conflict, behavioral struggles, life transitions, or strained relationships.

  • Action Plan: Families leave with a personalized roadmap for continued growth at home and, if desired, a recommendation for ongoing therapy or support.

This intensive is especially helpful for families facing:

  • High levels of conflict or disconnection

  • Transitions such as divorce, blending families, or relocation

  • Parenting stress around school, peers, or behavior challenges

  • Desire to deepen emotional connection and strengthen bonds

The goal is not perfection, but progress—helping parents and children move from frustration to understanding, from distance to closeness, and from reactive cycles to healthier patterns of love and communication.

Women’s Betrayal Recovery Intensive

Healing • Courage • Renewal

The pain of betrayal cuts deep—it can shake your sense of trust, identity, and even worth. This intensive is a safe, supportive space designed for women who are navigating the aftermath of betrayal in relationships, marriage, or close friendships.

Over the course of one or two focused days, you’ll step away from the noise of everyday life and lean into healing. Through guided teaching, therapeutic processing, and restorative practices, you’ll explore:

  • Understanding the impact of betrayal on your mind, body, and heart

  • Rebuilding trust in yourself and your inner strength

  • Processing grief, anger, and loss in a safe environment

  • Practical tools for grounding, resilience, and moving forward

  • Space for reflection and connection with others who understand your journey

Whether you attend individually or in a small group of women, you’ll leave with renewed clarity, a stronger sense of self, and a plan for continued healing beyond the intensive.

This is not about rushing forgiveness or bypassing pain—it’s about creating space to grieve, gather strength, and rediscover the courage to rebuild your life with hope.
