Mixed-modality Couples intensives

There are seasons in every relationship when repair, reconnection, or deeper understanding are needed. Couples intensives offer a powerful, immersive space to move beyond old cycles and reestablish trust, intimacy, and emotional safety.

Unlike weekly couples sessions, an intensive allows you to fully drop into the work—without interruption or distraction. Over several days, Cory facilitates a process that helps you uncover the patterns at play, understand the deeper emotional needs underneath conflict, and begin to embody new ways of relating.

These intensives integrate attachment-focused and somatic approaches, including elements of EMDR, experiential therapy, and body-based relational work. Through structured exercises, guided dialogues, and moments of restorative stillness, couples begin to experience not just insight, but genuine felt-sense connection.

Cory brings decades of experience in trauma integration, somatic coaching, and relational healing. Her approach is warm, direct, and profoundly supportive of both partners’ nervous systems.

Couples intensives are appropriate for partners who are:

• Recovering from betrayal or breach of trust

• Navigating disconnection, resentment, or repeating conflict patterns

• Seeking to rebuild emotional or sexual intimacy

• Healing together after trauma or loss

• Desiring a reset and renewal of commitment

• Wanting to learn embodied communication and co-regulation skills

travel and accommodations

The closest airport is Tri-Cities Airport, approximately 5o minutes away. TRI offers direct flights to and from a number of major hubs, including Dallas (TX), Charlotte (NC), Atlanta (GA), Washington DC (beginning in Dec 2025), and Orlando (FL). Public transportation is not available to our location, and we encourage clients to rent a vehicle at the airport for travel to and from the intensive, as well as for grocery and/or restaurant excursions.

The location for the intensives is a semi-wooded 80 acre parcel of land on the banks of the North Fork of the Holston River. Clients stay in a small standalone cottage on the property, with a living room, kitchen, bedroom with a queen size bed, and a full bathroom with shower. Sessions are conducted in a separate office room in the cottage, and in various places around the property, as allowed by weather and based on individual circumstances.
