Private Couples Intensive in Zürich

Stuck in the same painful relationship patterns?

Give the pattern room to change — in as little as a single weekend.

A private 10-hour couples intensive in Zürich for English-speaking couples — designed to help meaningful change take hold sooner, reaching in one focused weekend what weekly sessions can take months to approach.

The goal is not to understand your relationship intellectually. It is to help both partners experience each other differently.

What it is

A focused weekend of relationship work

Roughly ten hours over a single weekend, drawing primarily from Imago Relationship Therapy, attachment theory, trauma-informed counseling, and parts work — with hypnotic and experiential techniques when they serve you. Rather than stopping just as insight begins to surface, we have the time to go deeper and practice new ways of relating together, in real time.

The difference a weekend makes

Why ten focused hours move differently

A weekly hour

Built for steady, ongoing support. Each session re-enters the feeling and finds where you left off, then pauses at the hour — and a week later, the openness has often closed and old defenses re-arm.

A focused weekend

Built for the breakthrough. The thread stays unbroken, and momentum can build across two days, helping couples move through rupture into repair in real time — covering ground that weekly sessions often take months to reach.

Is this the right format?

This may be for you if…

  • You feel caught in repetitive conflict
  • You struggle to talk without escalating
  • You feel distant while still caring deeply
  • You’re rebuilding trust after real injury
  • Weekly therapy has come to feel too slow

It may not be, where there is…

  • Ongoing coercive control or violence
  • Active substance dependence affecting the relationship
  • Untreated conditions needing stabilization first
  • One partner unwilling to participate

Determining fit is one purpose of the 90-minute preliminary consultation. Not every couple will be recommended for an intensive. When appropriate, referrals will be made to therapists or services better suited to your needs. In some cases, participation may be recommended only alongside ongoing couples therapy following the intensive.
