Welcome to Ancora Couples Intensive

Ancora Couples is intensive therapy for couples in deep distress. If you are in crisis, have tried counseling or therapy in the past, or have exhausted every option currently available, we invite you to consider an intensive weekend of therapy with a team of Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists.

Group Intensive Program Overview:

Couples participate in 15 hours of group intensive therapy with a team of Licensed Marriage & Family Therapists and 5 hours of facilitated personal growth with a program coordinator. Each couple also receives 2 sessions of private couple therapy to address specific concerns, delve deeper into the therapy process, and create a strategy for continued care after the weekend.

Cost: $2800/couple, includes lodging, meals, programming, and resources

We offer an Early Bird Registration Discount: Receive 10% off your weekend if you submit a completed registration and paid deposit 6 weeks before the your scheduled session.

What to Expect in Group Therapy

Unlike traditional therapy models where clients meet with a therapist for a single session periodically, intensives meet as a group of couples with one or more therapists for many hours over a few days. This type of therapy is ideal for couples in deep distress, who are contemplating major relationship changes, and those who want to improve their relationship, but have limited time for therapy.

By working on issues as a group, couples benefit not only from the individual attention received from the therapist but also from hearing the stories and insights of other couples. Couples will be offered a safe place to process their own hurts and pain with a trained team of therapists. They will be given tools to improve their relationship immediately and strengthen their commitment for the long term. Within the group experience, they will be encouraged as they witness the growth and healing of other couples.

Our mission is to provide a safe, restful place to allow couples to reflect, reconnect, and recover from whatever pain and distress they have experienced in their relationship. We do this by carefully placing couples in groups with three or four other couples and working as a therapy team to provide the highest quality of therapy and resources.
