What’s the difference between weekly couples therapy and a couples intensive?
Weekly sessions work through issues over time. A couples intensive with Dr. Tyra Williams packs focused work into anything from 90 minutes to a full weekend, which can help when you’re in crisis or have a hard time getting consistent weekly time. Intensives are $290 per 90 minutes and can be virtual or in person in Asheville or Hendersonville.
Do we both have to come?
It works best together, but if one partner isn’t ready, starting alone can still help.
