What is a Couple's Retreat?

Our couples retreats offer a special weekend for you and your loved one to reconnect and reestablish your love for each other. We focus on identifying what obstacles exist in your relationship and help you develop effective methods of communication to address them.

What happens at a Marriage Retreat?

Marriage retreats offer you and your loved one a great opportunity to reflect and rebuild your relationship. Our couples retreats are held all throughout Alberta, with many of them taking place at the beautiful Banff National Park. Surrounded by the magnificence of nature—couples will have the opportunity to reflect, bond, and obtain the help they need with guidance from registered psychotherapist and certified Imago relationship therapist Kathleen Maiman. Couples can engage in one-on-one bonding time, group discussions, activities, and other exercises designed to turn this into a romantic getaway for you and your loved one. All of these activities and exercises help you and your partner learn useful skills that will strengthen your relationship and teach you the importance of empathy and patience.

Is there anything I have to do to prepare for the Couples Retreat?

Some information will be sent to you about a week prior to the Couples Weekend Retreat. The exercises are requested to be completed prior to attending. The only other preparation is to bring an open mind and heart, curiosity and a desire to have a better relationship.
