The New LIVE Workshop From Terry Real for Relationship Professionals
A Never-Before-Seen Look at How a Senior RLT Therapist Leads a Couple Through the Minefield of Reconnection in just TWO Days
Get fresh perspectives and interventions for your couples therapy sessions as you observe Terry Real and Desirae Ysasi work LIVE and in-depth with one couple using Relational Life Therapy.
Your All-Access Pass to TWO Days of LIVE Therapy Sessions With The Same Couple
In this immersive two-day learning experience, you’ll witness the full arc of Relational Life Therapy, demonstrated by Terry Real and esteemed RLT faculty member Desirae Ysasi.
As you know, couples therapy is complex and rarely resolved in one session. And this is your unique opportunity to get a real-time, unpolished look at how two senior RLT therapists navigate the common challenges that arise on the path to authentic connection…
Introducing Desirae Ysasi, LPC-S…
A licensed therapist for 17 years, Desirae runs a group practice in San Antonio, Texas. She’s also a senior member of the esteemed RLT faculty, training relationship professionals worldwide in the RLT model.
Her direct nature, wise mind, and warm heart make her a beloved teacher and mentor. Desirae will join Terry for this first-of-its-kind inside look at the nuances of RLT in a two-day, intensive setting.
Desirae has bravely stepped up to give you unprecedented insight into how another therapist utilizes RLT tools, like joining through the truth and finding leverage to empower you in your own work.
Both Terry and Desirae will bring their unique expertise and skills to the sessions to build intimacy, empathy, and accountability in our couple.
What Can You Expect to See in the Couple’s Intensive?
These two days represent the equivalent of several months of therapy sessions.
As the workshop progresses, you’ll see accelerated and profound transformation in each partner and how they relate to each other.
And You’ll Discover Exactly How It Happened…
Each day, you’ll join Terry, Desirae, and your fellow observers for Q&A to discuss what happened in the sessions.
Desirae and Terry will explain what they were thinking at different points and why they did what they did. Plus, you can ask them questions directly to deepen your understanding of the work.
This combination of observation and Q&A will give you a thorough understanding of the RLT model, how it translates in the therapy room, and—most importantly—a clear idea of how to use these techniques in your own sessions.
What Will I Learn?
You’ll come away from these two-days with:

Did You Know Relational Life Therapy Grew Out of the Couple’s Intensive?
After my book, I Don’t Want To Talk About It, came out in 1997, people from all over America started calling me to ask if anyone near them did the kind of couples work I did.
After a while of saying no and referring them to other family therapists I knew, I had a lightbulb moment and began inviting these couples to fly to Boston for a weekend to see if we could save their marriage…
This became known as my Couple’s Intensive…
A two-day intervention for couples on the brink of collapse, where we would spend two full days doing deep, life-changing work.
At the end, we would decide together whether they were back on track or splitting up.
I’m pleased to say that I managed to save most of these couples, and in the process, I realized I broke just about every rule I’d learned in therapy school about how to do couples therapy.
So I took what worked, and these tools and principles formed the basis of Relational Life Therapy—the radical approach to couples therapy I practice and teach today.
For that reason, Couple’s Intensives are very close to my heart. What I’ve seen them do for my clients over the past 25 years and what they’ve done for my practice is deeply moving and humbling.
That’s why I’m thrilled to open the doors on how this all works in this first-of-its-kind observation.
Not only will you see RLT tools live in action and the results unfold before you, but I hope you also consider adding this style of therapy to your practice.
Working with a couple in this way is like several months of therapy in one weekend. The results are accelerated and amplified. It’s rewarding, inspiring, and motivating all at once.
And I’m especially excited to share this experience with Desirae Ysasi, one of my most talented RLT therapists, as well as a senior member of my training school.
Desirae regularly runs Couple’s Intensives in her own practice, having run 10 in the last year! I can’t wait for you to learn from the depth of her expertise.

“NOT JUST MORE theory, but you learn INTERVENTIONS!
I have been doing couple’s work for 23+ years. It is never easy and always a challenge. I started my journey learning from Terry Real and I am STILL learning and growing! Terry’s work is SO IMPORTANT if not imperative and should never be missed if you also want to do couple’s therapy. I recommend 100%, so, so fantastic, and NOT JUST MORE theory, but you learn INTERVENTIONS!!!”

“An exquisite opportunity to see Real Life Therapy in action…
“Instead of hearing how to do therapy, the Couple’s Experiential provided the opportunity to watch Terry Real, a master therapist, work with four couples who were on the brink of divorce. It was an exquisite opportunity to see Real Life Therapy in action. As a result of attending, I will hold my clients in a more loving space while having specific goals and caring far less about outcome. I found it life changing!”
Cindy Hastert
“I learned so much from observing Terry and then being able to debrief with him over lunch and at the end of each day. Very powerful, very educational, very comprehensive. It’s well worth the time and money. I plan to attend again. Thank you Terry!”
Mary Anne Lushe, LMSW, LMFT.
“The mix of challenge, support and empathy is quite breathtaking…
It is a wonder to watch Terry work… The mix of challenge, support and empathy is quite breathtaking. Finally, the meetings with the Observer group was enriching, often moving. All in all, just what a great educational experience should be.”
