Couples Retreats for Deep Healing and Repair
At Bay Area CBT Center, we offer fully customized couples retreats for partners seeking real transformation. Whether you’re feeling stuck in conflict, growing apart, or struggling to communicate, our retreats are designed to interrupt toxic cycles, reignite intimacy, and create meaningful change.
This isn’t your average couples retreat vacation. Our couples therapy retreats are personalized, therapist-led experiences that go deep into your relationship dynamics using science-backed approaches that work. Whether you’re looking for a couples retreat therapy weekend, a longer format, or an immersive mental health retreat for couples, you’ll get a tailored experience that meets you exactly where you are—and gives you the tools to move forward.
What Makes Our Couple Retreats Unique?
Unlike most couple retreats that follow a one-size-fits-all program, our process is highly personalized from start to finish. Each couples retreat begins with a thorough application and assessment process, including both individual and joint questionnaires. We identify the specific patterns, emotional injuries, and needs of your relationship using tools like the Schema Couples Inventory.
From there, we build a fully tailored couples therapy retreat vacation package just for you. Every exercise, conversation, and intervention is curated around your specific goals, attachment styles, and values. You won’t be sitting in generic lectures—you’ll be doing powerful, targeted work that creates real breakthroughs.
We offer multiple retreat formats, allowing you to choose what resonates most

Why Choose a Customized Couple Therapy Retreat?
A couples therapy retreat offers an opportunity to pause the chaos of daily life and finally address what’s happening beneath the surface. Instead of spreading therapy out over months with one-hour sessions, a couples therapy retreat compresses the work into a few powerful, focused days—allowing for deeper insight, more rapid change, and stronger connection.
You’ll have the space to fully drop into the work without distractions, defenses, or time limits. This immersive format creates a safe container for real breakthroughs, emotional repair, and renewed intimacy.
The Power of a Couples Retreat and Therapy Immersion
A couples retreat and therapy immersion is for partners caught in patterns of disconnection—those looping arguments, quiet resentments, and the aching sense that you’ve drifted apart. Whether you’re facing betrayal, struggling with intimacy, or bracing for a major life transition, this is your chance to pause and go deeper.
Through focused therapeutic work and real-time emotional repair, you’ll begin to shift the patterns that keep you stuck. Being in a supportive space with other couples adds another layer of healing—there’s something powerful about growing together, witnessing each other, and remembering you’re not alone.
More than just a reset, a couples wellness retreat gives you the structure, guidance, and shared experience needed to transform your relationship—together.

We also offer larger group formats with 6 to 12 couples, creating a community learning model where couples benefit not just from their own work, but from seeing the universality of relational challenges.

This format fosters a sense of connection, compassion, and hope, helping couples recognize that they are not alone in their patterns or pain.
Evidence-Based and Holistic Couples Retreats
Our couples retreats create lasting change by addressing the root causes of relationship struggles—not just surface-level conflict. We uncover the deeper emotional patterns and beliefs keeping you stuck in painful cycles.
You and your partner will learn how to break toxic dynamics, reconnect with your wise selves, and take meaningful, values-based action—together. Our unique integrative protocol—featured in several published books—blends ACT, Schema Therapy, and somatic practices to create real-time shifts in connection and communication.
Through shared healing and authentic relating, you’ll rebuild trust, deepen intimacy, and foster true relational growth.
