The Weight You're Carrying

Sound Familiar?

  • You've Googled "marriage counseling near me" more than once and closed the tab.
  • You're exhausted from managing everyone's needs but your own relationship's.
  • Trust broke somewhere along the way, and neither of you has said so out loud.
  • You'd rather not run into your therapist at the next PTA meeting.
  • You want a therapist who moves as fast as you do — not a year of "let's see."

You've Had This Tab Open for a While


Searching "therapist near me" and then closing the tab is its own kind of exhausting. At some point the searching becomes the avoidance.

This is what happens after you stop closing the tab.

  • You've researched this more than once and still haven't booked anything
  • Infidelity, disconnection, or a relationship decision that keeps getting postponed
  • You want a therapist who moves as fast as you're finally ready to
  • You'd rather keep this outside your immediate community
  • You're done waiting for the "right time" to start

Why an Intensive Outperforms a Year of Weekly Sessions

Weekly therapy asks you to be patient. An intensive doesn't ask that of you — a half-day or full-day block gives us the room to actually get somewhere in one sitting.

Ridgewood clients typically use an intensive either as a strong first step before ongoing weekly work, or as focused time to work through one specific thing — an affair, a repeated fight, a decision you've been sitting with too long.

Where clinically appropriate, intensives can also include Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), delivered in partnership with Journey Clinical — a combination not every practice in the area offers.

"We honestly didn't realize how much of a difference having extra time would make. We'd been seeing Alexandria for weekly therapy and making progress, but our intensive completely changed the pace of our work. Instead of stopping right when we were getting somewhere, we had the time to keep going, uncover what was really happening underneath our arguments, and actually practice communicating differently. It felt like months of therapy condensed into a single day. We both walked away feeling more connected, more hopeful, and with tools we're still using. If you're on the fence about an intensive, do it. It was one of the best investments we've made in our relationship."
