Couples Intensive
Repair your relationship in just a few days with a private, customised Couples Intensive. Combining therapy and coaching, this immersive one-to-three-day experience offers immediate support, powerful breakthroughs, and lasting transformation.
​
What are Intensives?
A Couples Intensive is a powerful alternative to the traditional model of weekly therapy. Instead of meeting for 60 minutes once a week over many months, an intensive offers extended, focused time together—either for part of a day or across one, two or three consecutive full days. You can book all sessions consecutively (subject to availability), or over a period of up to 30 days
This concentrated format allows us to go much deeper, creating the space for meaningful insight, emotional repair, and lasting change that is often difficult to achieve in shorter sessions.
Who are Intensives for?
An Intensive may be right for you if:
​
-
You’re facing a crisis in your relationship and need immediate, focused support
-
You feel stuck in patterns that haven’t shifted despite previous therapy
-
You’re navigating a major life transition or decision and want clarity
-
You’d like to explore or heal deep relational wounds in a safe, contained space
-
Weekly therapy isn’t possible because of work, travel, or lifestyle demands
-
You want the depth of a retreat-like setting to strengthen or repair your relationship
Whether you are seeking clarity, healing, or a renewed connection, an Intensive offers the dedicated time and depth to move forward with intention.
What to Expect
A Couples Intensive typically includes a thorough assessment of your relationship, exploration of reactive patterns, and the practice of new skills to foster greater understanding, connection, and collaboration. The extended structure provides opportunities for both partners to feel deeply heard, to reflect, and to engage in guided exercises that open new pathways of relating.

-
Mini Intensive (4 hours): A half-day session that allows us to work deeply while still being manageable to schedule.
-
One, Two or Three-Day Intensives: Each day includes around five therapeutic hours within a six-hour block, with short breaks. A two-day intensive is roughly equivalent to 4 - 5 months of therapy, making it a highly efficient and transformative option.
Not every relationship can or should be reconciled, and part of our work may be to bring clarity to whether you move forward together or apart. In either case, the Intensive is designed to give you insight, tools, and direction.
Fees
​The cost of a Couple Intensive is similar to 4–5 months of regular therapy, yet many couples choose it to accelerate progress and start living the change now. No couple I’ve worked with has ever regretted the investment — most come to see it not as an expense, but as a gift to each other and their family.

Next Steps
The first step is an initial consultation (60 minutes, via Zoom or in person). This is an opportunity for us to meet, for you to ask questions, and for me to learn more about your situation. Together, we will decide whether an Intensive is the best approach for you.
​
If you choose to proceed, we will schedule a date and confirm a venue. Intensives can take place in my private London practice, in a hired therapy space, or in a hotel setting. Many couples prefer a neutral environment to support the depth of the work.
​
Ongoing Support
Following an Intensive, I often recommend 90-minute follow-up sessions every 2–3 weeks for several months. This helps you integrate the insights and skills into daily life. If ongoing therapy isn’t possible, I will provide tailored guidance and resources to support you in maintaining your progress.
Dolma helped me through a very difficult phase of my life. I dealt with a lot of loss in my life and it affected my health and happiness...Dolma gently but in a very constructive way helped me work through it. I now feel I am back to being myself again.

Dolma helped me remove my mask, helped me to heal and build confidence again. She offered me the right tools to cope so that I can take on any new challenge I might face.

Dolma has a magical way of gently helping you to recognise a pattern that can seem so obvious at times, but one you've lost awareness of or chosen not to see. This has been so hugely helpful and it feels like I am slowly reclaiming myself as I gain understanding of where they come from and why, and then have the choice to engage in a different way, a way that's true to me now.
