This immersive experience will provide months’ worth of progress and healing in a two-day period
Together we will examine your relational dynamics so that there is clarity on where you get stuck
We’ll remove blame from either partner and see how each of you trying your best accidentally perpetuates the problematic dynamic
We’ll highlight the cycle that each partner engages in and create a path for showing up differently with each other
You’ll each get individual time with Dr. Escuriex to increase your understanding of how your personal history is informing how you are showing up relationally
This immersive experience allows you to come and focus on only your relationship while you take a break from every day life
Collaboratively we will co-create change and healing right in the moment so you can leave feeling more connected and better resourced than you came in!
Sometimes traditional therapy falls short. Sometimes an hour session just doesn’t cut it. Sometimes we need a more intensive experience to really jumpstart healing and connection. This Couples Two-Day Intensive is perfect for intimate partners who are committed to making their relationship stronger and desire in the moment tools they can begin using right away.
Couples who are urgent to see change
Partners who feel like they want something more than individual therapy can offer
Partners who are ready to commit two full days to healing their relationship
Couples with conflicting work schedules who don’t want to find a time each week for therapy
Couples who feel like they’ve tried everything and nothing has worked
Partners who desire to stop having the same issue come up on repeat
Couples who want to jumpstart their healing and are ready to learn what needs to shift in their relationship
I’m a seasoned Licensed Psychologist with extensive training in Emotion-Focused Therapy for Couples, Somatic Experiencing, and Mindfulness. My approach is highly collaborative, and I believe that my expertise combined with your growing awareness of yourself, your patterns, and your wounds creates the foundation for safe, happy, and healthy relationships.
I know that relational healing goes beyond communication skills, cognitive interventions, and worksheets. That’s why my work focuses on deep, healing-oriented processes that help you foster a stronger connection with yourself and with the important people in your life.
I’m also the co-owner of Empowered Healing Dallas, a group therapy practice in Texas. When I’m not working with clients, you’ll probably find me puzzling, breaking into spontaneous dance parties, or hanging out with my rescue pup, Shiloh.
Two days of education, unpacking, tending to yourself and one another, and tools you can walk out the door with and use right away. Together we will look at what’s working and try on new ways of engaging with one another. We will look at your individual relational strengths and also how your history is informing your right now. We will remove blame and consider the impact it has had on the disconnection you’re experiencing. We will break free of past pain and help you begin building a future you both want to be a part of.
You feel like you’ve tried everything and nothing has worked. You notice that you feel fearful of losing your relationship, but you’re also frustrated because you don’t know what else to try. You are looking for something that is comprehensive, tangible, and will help you create lasting change right now.
I bring nearly two decades of experience to this work, and have specialized training in Emotion-Focused Therapy for couples, having been trained by the founder, Dr. Sue Johnson, herself. I’m skilled in Somatic Experiencing and bring a rich understanding of nervous system work, attachment, and trauma into our shared space.
My expertise in these approaches, plus your expertise in yourselves and your relationship will create the healing, closeness, and connection you have been longing for. Investing in your relationship today will have long-term pay off. If you and your partner are more than ready to break free from your stuck patterns and unhelpful cycles, now is the time to get started!
What is a Couples Intensive?
A Couples Intensive is a focused therapeutic experience designed to help partners step out of daily stress and immerse themselves in relationship repair. These two day sessions will provide the opportunity to address conflict, disconnection, and communication breakdowns more deeply than weekly therapy allows.
How can a Couples Intensive help us if we’re stuck in the same fight?
Couples often repeat cycles of conflict because they haven’t been able to identify or break out of the underlying pattern. Intensives allow enough time to slow down, recognize the cycle, and practice new ways of connecting that weekly therapy can’t always accommodate in a single hour.
Who should consider a Couples Intensive?
Couples who are considering separation, struggling with ongoing conflict, or longing to rebuild intimacy often find Couples Intensives especially beneficial. They’re also ideal for partners who don’t have the ability to commit to weekly sessions due to busy schedules.
Are Couples Intensives only for married couples?
Not at all. We welcome and affirm all relationship dynamics, including unmarried couples, LGBTQIA+ partnerships, and nontraditional family structures.
