A CLOSER LOOK
What to know about Couples Therapy Inc.
Couples Therapy Inc. is a network rather than one retreat property. The named clinician, their location and their fee determine the program you are buying. The assessment takes place before the intensive, so allow time to complete it before your visit.

BEFORE YOU GO
The experience, in more detail
A substantial assessment before arrival
The assessment page describes its BIG BIG Book as a 1,864-question questionnaire. It covers personal history, family, sexuality and relationship goals. Set aside meaningful time to complete it, and ask the clinician what must be finished before your intensive.
Each partner answers separately
Partners receive separate links, with responses kept private rather than displayed for the other partner to compare. The therapist uses the results to guide assessment and feedback. Discuss how sensitive answers will be handled during the joint work.
Feedback is part of the clinical process
The provider describes the questionnaire as material for the therapist’s assessment, not a standalone automated verdict on the relationship. Ask when you will receive feedback, which findings will shape the intensive, and whether you will receive a written summary afterward.
