Presence & Possibility
The Therapy Intensives Retreat
March 11–14, 2026
Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort & Spa
You know intensives are sacred work—
a chance to go deeper with clients in ways that weekly therapy can’t always hold.
You want to design an intensive experience that feels transformative and deeply attuned. And when it comes time to share it, you want your marketing to feel just as aligned and heart-centered as the work itself.
But you might still be wondering…
How are intensives clinically different from weekly therapy?
What new skills do I need to keep clients safe and supported?
How do I know if a client is the right fit?
How do I deliver intensives ethically, responsibly, and with confidence?
That’s exactly why we created
