A CLOSER LOOK
What to know about Cornerstone · A New Beginning
Cornerstone’s A New Beginning program is a structured weekend rather than continuous private counseling. Couples learn together, then work through exercises with their own partner. The Dallas listing separates registration from the hotel stay, giving local couples the option to attend without booking a room.

- Dallas, Texas
BEFORE YOU GO
The experience, in more detail
Privacy within a group
The weekend typically brings together ten to fifteen couples. Facilitators can help when an exercise gets difficult, and some private support is built into the program. This differs from spending the entire weekend alone with one therapist; discuss the support you expect before registering.
The hotel is a separate booking
The Dallas program names the DoubleTree near Love Field. Registration excludes food and accommodation, while the advertised room arrangement includes breakfast. Check the room block, taxes and cancellation rules directly before combining the program fee with travel costs.
Know the cancellation deadline
The published policy deducts $50 per person for cancellations made in writing at least 30 days ahead. Later cancellations are nonrefundable, with transfer provisions for another retreat within a year. The page also needs date confirmation before you rely on its registration information.
