Start with a private couples intensive. Change years in days.
Couples coaching from Larissa, Markus, and the Pivot team, based in Corte Madera, Marin County. Begin with two to three private days in person, just the two of you and two coaches, or with steady weekly sessions online. Either is a complete way to start.

- A private couples intensive
- Recurring couples coaching
- Either can be where you begin
Two separate programs. Start with either.
They're different in length, pace, and cost, not in quality. Neither requires the other.
Private Couples Intensive
Two to three private days, just the two of you. For couples in crisis, at a decision point, or who simply want to move fast.
- 2–3 consecutive days, then done
- Away, at home, or with us
- Best when you need change now
- Often paired with coaching after, but never required
Couples Coaching
Recurring 75-minute sessions with a coach for each of you. For couples who want steady, sustained change built into daily life.
- Recurring 75-minute sessions
- By video, from wherever you live
- Best for steady, lasting change
- A complete program on its own
Months of progress, concentrated into days.
No waiting weeks between sessions while things get worse. You step out of daily life, work intensively with your own facilitators, and leave with real traction, and a plan you both believe in.
2–3 private days
Uninterrupted time together: long enough to get past the surface fight and into what's actually driving it.
Wherever you need it
A destination of your choice, your own home, or with us in the Bay Area. Many couples prefer to get away.
Only your relationship
No group, no other couples. Your facilitators focus on the two of you the entire time.
When one person guides both partners, it's easy for someone to feel outnumbered. Here, each of you has a coach who is there for you, so the work feels fair and safe enough to be honest.
Each of you works on your own side first. Then all four of you meet. Because the two coaches know both perspectives, they can keep the conversation out of blame and help you work as a team again.
How coaching sessions work
Your own coach
Each of you is matched with your own coach, someone chosen for your wants and needs, fully in your corner.
Your own work
You each meet 1:1 with your coach to understand your patterns and what you bring to the relationship.
Come together
Then the four of you meet. With both coaches collaborating, the conversation moves past blame into rebuilding.
What coaching includes
Whether you're in crisis or deepening intimacy, the work meets you where you are.
75-minute sessions
Longer sessions, because couples work needs room: no rushing the hard conversations.
A coach for each of you
You each feel seen and heard by someone who knows your side, while both coaches work for the relationship.
Support between sessions
Both coaches are available for texting and short calls when something flares up mid-week.
A personalized curriculum
Materials and practices chosen for what your relationship needs, whether that's crisis repair or deepening intimacy.
The Pivot Process
A structured, practice-based method for recognizing the survival patterns you each fall into under stress and practicing steadier ways to respond, applied to your partnership week by week.
Emotional & physical intimacy
Rebuilding closeness in every sense, emotional and physical, not just fewer arguments.
In crisis, or ready to go deeper.
In either program, your curriculum is personalized to what your relationship needs right now.
Stabilize and rebuild
Betrayal, constant conflict, or the brink of separation. Your coaches help you stop the spiral, rebuild trust, and decide, together and clearly, what comes next.
From good to deeply connected
Nothing's "wrong," but you want more. Your coaches help you deepen emotional and physical intimacy and grow a partnership that keeps getting better.
Don't wait for things to get worse.
