Relational Life Therapy (RLT) is Terry Real’s radical approach to couples therapy that breaks many of the rules of traditional couples therapy.

Notably, RLT emphasizes the importance of people learning the ongoing skills they need to nurture and cherish their relationships long after their time in therapy is over. It’s these core skills you will learn at the Connected Couples Retreat to help you rekindle meaningful relationships and keep the spark alive.

The venue is located just steps from the beach and includes a hot tub and private beach access.

Are we going to be airing our dirty laundry to strangers?

This couples retreat is not group or couples therapy; rather, it’s an educational retreat designed to help you learn a new paradigm for relating.

The primary focus is on acquiring essential skills for relationality and understanding how you personally show up in your relationship. You have the freedom to share as little or as much as you wish about yourself and your personal relational experiences.

The 4 day retreat is appropriate for all couples-from new relationships to couples married for many many years. The only thing we ask is that you both come committed to being open minded to doing the work at the retreat.

Is there any follow-up support after the retreat?

There’s no specific follow-up support after the retreat. However, participants have the option to engage in private coaching sessions with Luana if they wish to continue their relational growth journey.
Additionally, you’ll be invited to join the next retreat in 2027, where you can reconnect and continue building on the skills learned during this retreat.

Can I attend this retreat alone, or does my partner need to come?

No, this is a couples retreat, and participation is designed specifically for couples. The retreat focuses on enhancing the relationship between partners, so both individuals are required to attend together. This collaborative experience is essential for fostering connection and growth as a couple.
