We designed our Brink Intensives by observing what succeeds in working with couples in crisis. What works best, we’ve found, is focusing on the work that needs to be done until it’s done. Our programs offer the potential for great rewards. After completing an intensive, couples have more insight into stuck patterns and leave with tools to help prevent them from reaching the brink again. Best of all, they feel better about one another and their relationship.
For immediate help, PLEASE CALL 954-660-7272 for a FREE CONSULTATION to discuss your specific needs.
We are committed to your relationship success. When making your decision, consider recent studies that suggest between 35-50% of people regret not trying harder to stay together before getting divorced. Conservative estimates are that a typical divorce costs in excess of $25,000. Add to that the emotional price that you and your family pay during this difficult transition and you can see your investment in our services as a practical, economical, healthy decision.

We are so sure you will be satisfied with our program that we offer a risk-free satisfaction policy. Also, please visit our Success Stories Page to see what recent clients are saying about our program and then give us a call.
We look forward to assisting you.

Back From The Brink
Our most popular intensive, the 12-hour Back from the Brink program helps couples create lasting changes in response to serious emotional distress. It is designed for couples with long standing issues and chronic conflict. People who benefit most from this intensive feel incompatible with one another and like they are living parallel lives. In this format, we address core issues and long-standing relationship dilemmas. The progress you make with your therapist or co-therapy team is supported by specific recommendations during an added session with a team of relationship experts. You also receive time with one of our specialist relationship coaches who assists you in resolving issues through exercises and activities customized for you.
We recommend that you complete the On The Brink portion of the program over 3 consecutive days when possible. An alternative would be to complete your intensive sessions within a 7-day period. We then suggest you continue with your six On The Mend sessions which are included in the program. These are tailored to your individual needs and typically completed in 1-2 hour sessions over the next six months.

On The Mend
On the Mend is a highly-focused service for couples who are committed to their relationship and want to be happy together. This program is designed for couples who have gotten past the brink on their own and want to solidify the changes they have made and reconnect in the most effective and loving way possible. Many couples who attend this program were/are separated and are in the process of transitioning back into the relationship. The 12-hour On the Mend program is designed to
jump-start your relationship by moving you past stuck points and troubling issues so you can rediscover substantial reasons to feel good about one another again.
Couples who benefit most from On The Mend are committed to the relationship. They do not see splitting up as an option, though struggles and disconnection continue to diminish their quality of life. With the assistance of a couples expert or male-female co-therapy team, you spend part of this intensive resolving issues that have blocked your happiness, and the rest of your time reconnecting with one another. With the added support of a relationship coach and a team consultation, you can achieve what you believed was no longer possible.

Brink Tune-up

Couples uncover possibilities and solutions where none seemed possible with the help of a couples therapist specifically trained to help you get past these previously unworkable problems.
