Faith-Based, Proven Mediation Techniques

Confidential & Judgment-Free Environment

A Marriage Intensive is a private, focused experience designed to help couples in crisis find clarity, healing, and a path forward—fast. Unlike weekly counseling sessions that spread progress out over months, an intensive compresses that growth into 1-3 days of immersive support, creating space for breakthroughs that simply can’t happen in an hour-long visit.

Why Marriage Intensives Work

Communication: The Foundation of a Healthy Marriage

At XO Institute, we’ll help you unlearn the bad habits and replace them with proven communication strategies rooted in biblical principles and emotional awareness. Whether you're tired of arguing or feel like your spouse just doesn’t hear you anymore, we’ll give you the tools to connect, listen, and speak with intention—so you feel seen, heard, and understood.

Rekindling Intimacy & Emotional Connection

Intimacy is more than physical—it's emotional safety, trust, and feeling known by your spouse. Over time, life stressors, resentment, or simply the busyness of marriage can cause emotional and physical closeness to fade.

Our marriage coaching sessions help couples restore intimacy from the inside out. You'll learn how to express love in ways that resonate, rebuild emotional safety, and reignite passion—with biblical insight and real-world techniques designed for couples just like you

Walk away with clear, practical steps.

By the end of your coaching sessions, you’ll have a customized roadmap tailored to your situation. Whether it’s communication exercises, forgiveness strategies, or steps to rebuild trust, you’ll leave with tangible next steps that you can start implementing immediately to strengthen your relationship.

Marriage Intensives: Frequently Asked Questions

  • A marriage intensive is a personalized, multi-day experience designed to help couples facing serious challenges find healing, clarity, and a path forward. Unlike weekly counseling sessions, intensives provide focused, one-on-one guidance to work through the root of your struggles in a short amount of time. At XO Institute, our intensives are faith-based and proven to curb divorce in 90% of cases.

  • Traditional counseling often stretches out over weeks or months. A marriage intensive compresses months of progress into just a few days, with a structured, solution-focused process led by a trained XO mediator or coach. It's customized, intensive, and results-driven, giving you tools that create real change—fast.

  • Marriage intensives are ideal for couples who are:

    • Facing serious crisis or disconnection

    • Considering separation or divorce

    • Struggling to recover from infidelity or betrayal

    • Feeling like roommates instead of spouses

    • Tired of conflict, confusion, or feeling stuck

    If you're ready for a breakthrough, this is for you.

  • The core experience typically takes place over 1-3 days, depending on the couple’s needs. It also includes a pre-intensive virtual consultation and post-intensive support, ensuring the transformation continues well beyond the session.

  • Absolutely. Every session is 100% private and judgment-free. Whether you're processing betrayal, emotional distance, or years of frustration, you’ll be met with grace, truth, and personalized guidance—never shame.

  • Yes. Because of the immersive nature and depth of this experience, both spouses must be willing to participate. However, one partner can initiate the process and speak to our team first if the other is hesitant.

  • Over 90% of couples who complete our intensive stay married and report a renewed sense of connection, purpose, and hope. That’s not just a stat—it’s a testament to what happens when faith and action come together.

  • No. While our approach is unapologetically rooted in biblical truth, we welcome couples from all backgrounds. You don’t have to believe in God to benefit from this process—but we’ll always be clear about where our guidance comes from.

  • We offer both. While many couples benefit from an in-person intensive at our Southlake, TX location, virtual intensives are also available and just as impactful. We’ll help you choose the format that fits your needs and availability.

It’s Not Too Late—But It Is Time to Act. This is the moment. Take it.

If your marriage feels like it’s hanging by a thread, this is your chance to change the story. XO Institute’s Marriage Intensives have helped 90% of couples avoid divorce—and they can help you too.

You don’t need to stay stuck. You don’t need to go through this alone. With expert guidance, faith-based wisdom, and a proven path to healing, we’ll walk with you toward restoration.
