What makes MRI different from other counseling programs?

Our program is unique because it focuses on a spiritually based modeling of working with couples developed by the Smalleys. This model has been utilized all over the country and has been found to be successful with the vast majority of attendees.

Experience a profound change

No matter what state your marriage is in, our intensives will make a profound impact on your marriage. Couples who are stressed will learn why they are stressed and actually be able to significantly increase their marital satisfaction.

You might be experiencing:

“There’s no hope for us.”
“My husband says he doesn’t love me any more.”
“My wife has had an affair.”

No marriage is too hurting or too conflicted to be restored through our Marriage Restoration Intensive.

99% of the couples who’ve attended our Marriage Restoration Intensive would recommend it to other couples.
When couples were asked how they would rate their satisfaction with our retreat, in terms of how it helped their marriage, on a scale from 1 (meaning that it didn’t help at all) to 10 (meaning that it was very helpful) the average couple ranked our Marriage Restoration Retreat at a 9.5.

What is the intensive like?

In today’s society it is difficult to commit an hour a week for several months to anything, let alone the health of your marriage. Typically, this is what you are asked to do when you seek marriage counseling. Often, you find yourself experiencing more stress just trying to get into counseling because you have to take off work early, find a baby sitter, coordinate each other’s schedules, etc. In the end, counseling becomes more of a hassle than an asset.Our intensives are focused help for your marriage.

There are no awkward exercises during the intensive but rather focused and individualized help to move you forward in love and harmony. The time is flexible yet purposeful. You will learn specific key concepts that are proven to revitalize even the most stressed and wounded couples.

Proven success for our intensives

The Marriage Restoration Intensive is based on the wildly successful Couples Intensive program by The Smalley Relationship Center that was over 87% successful in keeping couples together and satisfied in their marriage!

The retreats are not a traditional counseling program.The intensives are located approximately 30 miles north of Houston in The Woodlands, Texas. The Woodlands is a local attraction with its variety of shopping, top-rated golf courses, and outstanding selection of restaurants. Let this be a time for you and your spouse to escape the stress of everyday life to enjoy time together and focus on your relationship.

Why should you seek help?

Because the average divorce, at least in The Woodlands, Texas costs nearly $60,000!
Because nearly every possible negative behavior for a child increases after a divorce.
Because of the brilliant work of some of the most respected marriage and family researchers today, we now know what it takes for a marriage to over come most any conflict it will face.

For this reason, the Smalley Marriage and Family Center believes you can survive whatever conflict or hurt your marriage is suffering from! Our Marriage Restoration Intensive is proven to turn even the most hurting or devastated marriages into thriving and committed ones!
