The Getting the Love You Want workshop/retreat is a powerful and effective couples retreat to help you and your partner learn new ways to create the marriage or relationship of your dreams whether you are just starting out or have been together for over 40 years. It is a time and cost effective way to help you both co-create what you both want in a fulfilling, happy, lasting marriage or relationship.

Format and Options:
We offer the same workshop/retreat specifically for gay and lesbian couples as we do for heterosexual couples. Whether you have a good marriage or relationship that you want to make great, or one that is filled with distress or stagnation, or even one that is on the brink of breakup, this couples retreat is for you. You will learn how to expand the best of your relationship and your selves. You will also learn practical tools to help you transform conflict into something that can bring you closer together instead of a wedge that drives you further and further apart. The work couples do in the retreat has often been compared to 3-6 months of marriage or relationship therapy. I agree, but like counseling, it only works if you do the work and practice using what you learn. If you are already in counseling, it can help you move forward much more quickly.

The format of the retreat involves presentations by me, demonstrations of new skills and tools, practice with your own spouse or partner, times of reflection and writing (not essays, just lists!)

I keep my workshops small (maximum 10 couples), however, some want the one on one attention of a private retreat.

Added Value:
Because I want my couples to succeed, I also offer couples who attend my workshops, the opportunity to repeat it for free as a way to help them integrate the information and refine their skills. Even if you heard the same workshop on video the next weekend, you would learn something new! We are also working on other ways to assist couples integrate what they learn during the weekend.

The weekend Getting the Love You Want workshop/retreat, developed by Harville Hendrix, Ph.D., (author of the best-selling book, Getting the Love You Want and founder of Imago Relationship Therapy, and Oprah's 'favorite therapist') takes the guesswork out of making your relationship more satisfying and fulfilling for both of you. improve relationship
