Indiana Couples Intensives
Eligible couples in Indiana can work with Chad Stiles, PhD, LMFT through private virtual intensives or individually arranged in-person treatment. The first conversation is about whether concentrated couples psychotherapy fits the concerns you want to address.
You do not have to arrive with an agreed explanation of the problem. One partner may want to talk more while the other feels overwhelmed by the conversation itself. An intensive gives you protected clinical time to explore that interaction, rather than trying to settle whose account is right.

More time for the pattern, not just the argument. Concentrated treatment allows room to clarify the concerns, notice what happens between you, and return to difficult moments with clinical support. The aim is to understand emotional and protective responses and practice other ways of responding.
Chad works from a relational and systemic clinical orientation. Both partners’ experiences matter, alongside the recurring cycle that can leave each person feeling unheard. The intensive is psychotherapy for your relationship, rather than coaching or shared group programming.
Weekly therapy and intensive therapy serve different needs. A demanding calendar can be one reason to explore an intensive, but convenience alone does not establish clinical fit. The right pace depends on the concerns, safety, and capacity to participate.
About Chad and his clinical approachWhen an Intensive May Help
Recurring arguments and pursue/withdraw patterns can leave both partners anticipating the next breakdown before a conversation begins. Emotional disconnection or communication difficulties may persist even when you both understand what usually goes wrong.
An intensive may also be considered for trust ruptures or betrayal, trauma-related relationship patterns, or several interconnected concerns. It provides time to examine those difficulties and practice new responses. It cannot guarantee repair, agreement, or a particular relationship decision.
How intensives help with relationship patternsVirtual Care
Virtual intensives may be available when eligible clients are physically located in Indiana during treatment. Applicable physical-location and licensure requirements must be met for each partner. Residency by itself is not enough to establish eligibility, so planned travel should be discussed before scheduling.
$2,000
One day may fit a recurring conversation or a relatively defined relationship pattern. A focused goal can provide a clear starting point for examining the cycle and practicing different responses, when clinically appropriate.

Two days may be considered when concerns are longstanding, layered, or linked to one another. Additional time can accommodate pacing, emotional regulation, practice, and integration. More days do not automatically mean a better clinical fit.

Two-Day Private In-Person Couples Intensive
$6,000
Private in-person work may be arranged within Indiana. Chad and the couple determine an appropriate treatment setting individually, considering clinical needs, privacy, availability, and scheduling. No permanent Indiana office is offered through this arrangement.
The clinical fee is $6,000. Therapist travel and location expenses may apply; those additional therapist expenses are discussed and agreed upon before scheduling. Confirm the setting and dates before committing to personal travel.
Couples arrange and pay for their own lodging, transportation, airfare or driving costs, meals, recreation, hospitality, and other personal travel expenses. None of those personal expenses is included in the clinical fee, and Chad does not organize them.
The setting supports the work; it is not the treatment. What matters is a suitable private space for psychotherapy, rather than a particular destination.
Rates and BookingThe Clinical Process
These elements are paced according to clinical needs, safety, regulation, and what emerges. Breaks and a return to an unfinished concern may be part of the work. There is no requirement to force a particular conversation or outcome within a day.
Clinical Fit
Not every couple is appropriate for this format. Screening includes active or recent interpersonal violence, coercive control, intimidation or threats, severe instability, untreated substance-use concerns interfering with safe participation, and situations where either partner cannot speak freely. Clinical fit is determined before scheduling; requesting a consultation does not guarantee acceptance.
Privacy and Discretion
Your intensive involves one couple, with no groups or shared programming. Privacy can be especially important when professional, leadership, community, or public-facing responsibilities make relationship difficulties feel hard to discuss. Any clinically appropriate couple can seek this care. Standard legal and ethical limits to psychotherapy confidentiality apply, and privacy needs can be discussed with Chad.
Do not send protected health information or sensitive clinical details through standard email or scheduling notes. Discuss privacy questions during the fit consultation.
In-Person Planning
Couples should not make nonrefundable travel arrangements until the treatment location and dates have been confirmed.
