Thank you so much for taking the time to learn more about scheduling your personal Hope Retreat. You both are taking a big step towards a fulfilling marriage. The scheduling process allows you and your spouse to ask question to allow the utmost confidence in your weekend.
To schedule, please call the office to set up your initial consultation or email me directly.
Initial Consultation
Before scheduling your weekend, you both will meet for an initial consultation session. This allows you and your spouse to ask questions and receive a comprehensive understanding and logistics of the weekend.
This also will allow therapist to determine if a Hope Retreat is best for you. If a Hope Retreat does not suit your needs, tradition couples therapy may be suggested or a referral will be given.

Retreats are held in the Indianapolis office and the weekend with the option of concluding at a local hotel.
