What Makes our Marriage Counseling Retreat the Right Choice for You?

You may be dealing with infidelity, addiction, rage, mid-life crisis, or other relationship shattering issues.

You may have already tried traditional marriage counseling and felt you never got to the root of the problem. (Most couples we see have been there, done that.)

You may wonder if you are beyond help.

You may be on the brink of divorce or splitting-up, and want to make one last effort to save your relationship. (We’ve helped many couples turn the ship around.)

You might yearn for a deeper connection, and want to shore up a shaky relationship.

You might want to be together, but honestly, don’t know how to make it work.

We guide you in a way that honors your soul, encourages your heart, inspires your mind, and heals the past.

Do these thoughts keep you up at night?
