Online crisis support for Alberta couples when your relationship is on the brink

Couple Intensive Online Support for Relationships in Crisis

When a relationship is on the edge, you don’t have time to drag things out. You need clarity, structure, and a path forward. The Relationship 911 Intensive is a 10-hour format offered over two and half days - two 2-hour sessions each day, with space for reflection and integration between sessions. Then a wrap up and next steps for the final 2-hour session.


This approach gives couples in crisis a safe space to get real, cut through the chaos, and figure out what’s next.


Sessions are online via secure Zoom from my office in Red Deer, serving couples across Alberta who don’t have time to drag things out.

What This Looks Like

This isn’t a mini session. And it’s not a venting session either. It’s a focused deep dive to help you:

  • De-escalate and get your nervous systems back online
  • Break the cycle of reactivity or blame
  • Rebuild a working baseline of emotional safety
  • Decide what the next step actually is, with eyes wide open


You’re not sure if this relationship can be saved.

But you haven’t given up - yet.

If you answer yes to any of these, this intensive may be the right next step:

  • Are you at a crossroads - unsure whether to stay or go?
  • Has one or both of you mentioned ending the relationship?
  • Are you walking on eggshells, afraid of what might trigger the next fight?
  • Has there been infidelity, betrayal, or emotional shutdown?
  • Are addictions, resentment, or stonewalling pulling you apart?
  • Do you feel like strangers, or worse, enemies under the same roof?
  • Are you both still willing to try?

Then let’s not waste time.

What Is a Couple Intensive?

The Relationship 911 Intensive is a focused, extended-format session designed for couples in crisis.
Instead of dragging things out over months of weekly therapy, we dig in, fast, deep, and honestly.

It’s not therapy lite.


It’s the real work - all in.


How It Works

  • Online via secure Zoom- 5 - 2 hour sessions
  • 2.5-day duration (with option to extend or add follow-up work)
  • Focused on one relationship, no group, no distractions
  • Structured for safety, clarity, and immediate traction
  • Available weekdays, evenings, or weekends


You’ll leave the session with:

  • A clear understanding of what’s going on underneath the fights
  • Concrete tools to stop the damage and start healing
  • A decision framework to help you move forward, together or apart


Investment and Scheduling

The Relationship 911 Intensive is a 10-hour process and is booked in larger blocks so we can really focus. The fee for the full intensive is $1,500 CAD.


We’ll schedule your intensive at a time that works for all of us, with options for weekdays, evenings, or weekends. If you need to split the cost between you or set up a payment arrangement, we can talk about that before we book, so money stress doesn’t get in the way of getting help.


This Isn’t for Everyone

You don’t come to this intensive just to vent or rehash old fights.
You come ready to face what’s real and take radical responsibility for change.

This isn’t a quick fix - but it is a fast track to clarity, connection, or closure.


Who This Is For

  • Recovering from betrayal, burnout, or breakdown
  • Circling the same arguments over and over again
  • Unsure whether they want to stay together or separate
  • Ready for emotional clarity and a real intervention


My Role in the Room

I’m not here to referee.
I’m here to help you both see what’s actually going on and what’s still possible.

Using Relational Life Therapy and my years of expereince, I’ll guide you through hard truths, honest repair work, and grounded next steps.


You’ll be seen. You’ll be challenged. And you’ll get the clarity you need.
