Perfect Start for the New Year!
Give your relationship the perfect start to the year! A truly special weekend where you'll go beyond your New Year's resolutions and gain the tools to make them a reality.
You're embarking on a wonderful journey together, giving your relationship the boost it deserves. We're confident you'll find this weekend incredibly rewarding.
For yourself and for each other. Don't worry, the weekend is perfectly organized. You won't have to do any group exercises. You'll get plenty of quality time together and will drive home enriched on Sunday afternoon! We're sure of that.
Does it sometimes feel like you're drifting further and further apart, despite all your efforts to connect? You're not alone. Many couples get stuck in the daily grind and find their relationship just doesn't feel the same anymore. The good news: a Relationship Boost Retreat could be the turning point you're looking for.
What Is a Relationship Boost Retreat?
A Relationship Boost Retreat is a short, intensive program where couples take time to strengthen their relationship. Away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, you can fully focus on each other and on what truly matters. Through workshops, discussions, and activities, you work together to improve communication, mutual understanding, and emotional connection.
Relationship Counselor Priscilla: Everyone Deserves Such a Wonderful Weekend!
Why pack your bags for such a weekend?
But why would you pack your bags for such a weekend? Here are a few important reasons.
You probably know the feeling: work, housework, appointments, and maybe kids – your schedule is always full. There never seems to be a good time to really talk. A relationship weekend takes you away from that busyness and allows you to focus solely on each other. No distractions, no to-do lists, just time for the two of you.
Many relationship problems start with poor communication. Sometimes it seems like you've already said everything, but something still nags at you. During a relationship weekend, you'll be given tools to understand each other better. You'll learn to listen, really listen, and not just wait for your turn to talk. These kinds of conversations can sometimes be more exciting than a night out, because the insights you gain can be a real game-changer for your relationship.
Just like a garden, a relationship needs maintenance. You need to invest time, energy, and attention to keep it healthy and vibrant. A relationship weekend is like a generous dose of fertilizer for that garden – it gives you the chance to recharge and let your relationship flourish again.
Strengthen Your Relationship in a Beautiful Location
Every relationship goes through certain phases
In addition, you're developing yourself, your partner is developing, and your environment is changing. It's not surprising that this affects your relationship. When was the last time you truly invested in that?
- Many couples indicate that they have forgotten to invest in their relationship.
- And besides that, all sorts of things require your attention, like:
- The children receive the most attention
- The work and your career got the attention
- Your sick family member got the attention
- A third outside the relationship received attention
Neither you nor we can bring back the butterflies in your stomach of those first few months. What we can do is give your relationship the genuine attention it needs.
We'd love to take you out of your rut for a few days and work with you during a Relationship Boost Retreat.
What will you do, among other things:
Program
- Learn what your ineffective communication looks like and how to stop it;
- We will recognize in our bodies how unpleasant dancing feels and how to respond to it;
- We are going to be nice again, work on intimacy with each other;
- You are going to be together again for a few days, without kids, without parents, without work, without, without, without;
- We're going to talk about the real sore spots between you (we don't do this in the group!)
- We're going to talk about desires and needs that you'd like to explore further together after the weekend.
- The program for the weekend will be sent to you separately
How do we ensure safety in the group?
- These are group assignments that we'll discuss together in a plenary session. You're welcome to share whatever you want. If you don't want to share anything, that's fine too. We won't be taking turns.
- Everyone will be working on the same assignments. The goal is for you to leave with renewed energy and tools.
- Vulnerable issues will be addressed separately during the weekend with Priscilla and Joost. This will not happen in the group, unless otherwise requested.
Let me introduce myself
Joost and Priscilla Founders of Young Stress FREE – Adult Stress FREE
Joost and I (Priscilla) are married and have a beautiful 7-year-old daughter. We also have a busy social life, and Joost and I work together. It can be a real challenge to maintain that connection sometimes.
A few years ago we had relationship therapy and we participated in a couples course.
What insights that provided! We received answers to the following questions:
- How do you listen to each other and when do you feel heard and seen?
- How do you maintain that connection and intimacy?
- The relationship changes over time and how do you keep up with the times?
We've been offering relationship therapy on Wednesday evenings in our practice for over two years now. What we encounter most often with couples is that we desperately want our partners to hear us.
Often, that doesn't happen because we can't listen to each other properly. We're too focused on getting our own point across. This often leads to frustration and anger.
Couples often see relationship therapy as a "last resort." Know that when you choose relationship therapy, you're choosing each other. Whatever your situation, it's not a last resort; it's an investment in each other, and especially in yourself!

I'd like to share my experience with my husband and I about the relationship therapy I received from Joost and Priscilla. Relationship therapy sounds difficult to us, but we recommend it to everyone, even if your relationship is currently strong! We attended therapy with Joost and Priscilla. It was very helpful and comforting to talk together. Sometimes we felt overwhelmed. Joost and Priscilla are very knowledgeable and can summarize topics effectively. We were given assignments to do at home, which we still use in our daily lives. It all sounds so logical, but only when you face it head-on can you work on it. Thank you for your wonderful help!
A wonderful, warm place where they genuinely seek out what I need to move forward. They look at the core of my problems. This has helped me enormously to break through patterns effectively. Besides addressing the core, I also gained incredibly helpful and useful tools to truly change my approach and recognize when I'm falling back into old patterns. After completing my own process, I now also have the honor of helping others in this way. I was trained in the Weeber method by Joost and Priscilla and have become part of this wonderful team. It's wonderful to see and hear that this can make a huge difference in the lives of not only me but also many others.
