ABOUT COUPLES THERAPY INTENSIVES
A Weekend Designed for Growth and Renewal
These weekend intensives are designed for couples who want more than traditional sessions, they want space to truly reset.
You’ll spend three immersive days in a private retreat suite, with prepared meals and snacks throughout the weekend so you can focus entirely on connection and healing.
The environment is intentionally crafted to feel warm, sacred, and safe, never clinical or rushed.
Faith integration is available for couples who desire a spiritual component woven through their weekend.

Meet Corretta Woodard
Let’s get to know each other.
Corretta isn’t just a Licensed Professional Counselor—she’s a woman who has walked the winding road of marriage with both scar tissue and sacred strength to show for it. Her passion for couples didn’t come from textbooks or theory alone. It was forged in the fire of her own story; affairs that cracked open the hard conversations, the unique storms of blending a family, and the slow, sacred work of rebuilding trust one brick at a time.
She’s lived what she now teaches: what you pour into your marriage is what you’ll draw out of it. Through heartbreak and healing, tragedy and triumph, Corretta has experienced deep deliverance and restoration. And now, with the skill of a seasoned clinician and the heart of a woman who’s been in the trenches, she’s fiercely committed to pulling other couples out of the fire and helping them rebuild what’s been broken.
Her work is more than therapy...it’s ministry, it’s real talk, and it’s hope with hands.
Why trust Corretta with your Relationship?
✔️ Couples-focused, trauma-informed therapy — Corretta specializes in marital, premarital, parenting, trauma & PTSD work.
✔️ Real-life credibility — Because she has walked through brokenness and rebuilding, she understands the pain, the mess, and the hope beyond it.
✔️ Immersive hospitality — Beyond therapy blocks, she & her husband (a certified chef) create a retreat environment of comfort, safety, and intentional rest.
✔️ Faith-integrated possibilities — For couples desiring spiritual depth, Corretta weaves in meaningful reflection, ritual, and values if it aligns with their journey.
After years of walking with couples through the hardest chapters of their stories, I wanted to create an experience that offered more time, more depth, and more care than a 50-minute session could hold.
Each intensive blends evidence-based therapy with meaningful rest, reflection, and hospitality, because healing happens best in spaces that feel safe and sacred.
