Focused Care for Seasons That Require More
A personalized, Christ-centered intensive designed to help you address what feels overwhelming—through intentional time, guided care, and meaningful support.
Our lives are filled with many experiences that we enjoy, and then there are those we don’t enjoy so much. At times, life’s challenges become heavier and maintaining focus becomes difficult.
Christ-Centered Intensives
Preserved International facilitates the Intensives as an effective way to get help responding to life’s challenges, obtain tools to utilize to respond, and receive care during a crisis. This a customized experience for individuals, couples, or groups that last 2 days.
Together, we focus on important issues of your soul, relationships, life, career, and ministry that helps you experience greater amounts of growth in a shorter time.
Why an Intensive
Unlike ongoing sessions, intensives allow you to focus without interruption—creating space to address what may take weeks or months to unpack in a shorter, more intentional timeframe.
This focused approach can bring clarity, direction, and meaningful progress when it’s needed most.
An intensive may be helpful if:
• You feel overwhelmed by what you’re carrying
• You are navigating a significant relational or personal challenge
• You need focused time to process and move forward
• You feel stuck and need clarity or direction
• You want to address something deeply, without distraction
This is a space to give focused attention to what matters most.
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” — 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
What To Expect

Patterns of Resistance to Change
Each intensive is personalized based on your situation and needs.
We begin by understanding what you’re facing, then create a focused time together that allows you to process, reflect, and receive guidance.
These sessions are extended and intentional—giving space to move beyond surface-level conversations and engage more deeply with what matters most.
Our approach remains relational, Scripture-centered, and guided by care—not pressure.
The intensives allow us to get laser focused on specific areas in a shorter period of time.
Once we do an initial assessment, we will schedule a time to meet for 1-3 days and chart out a customized intensive experience.
Areas of Focus:
Encouragement
Crisis / Relational Challenges / Emergency marital issues
Addiction / Porn
Fear of Loss / Pain

What You Can Expect
Customized Care Plan
After you complete your forms and set up your portal, we will have a discovery meeting (in person or virtual) that will allow us to go deeper and provide insight into how we will structure our time and frequency.
Biblical Application
Scriptural application is key. The Scriptures have the final say in our direction with how we think, the conclusion we draw and actions we take. The care and counseling time is governed by a biblical foundation, and we will learn to follow the word of God, the person of Jesus and the leading of the Holy Spirit.
Equipped
Develop tools that will equip you to respond to what life throws at you. For example, responding to adversity, exploring an in-depth view on forgiveness, understanding what a wounded heart looks like, emotionally caring for yourself, viewing pain and suffering in a more helpful way, influencing change in your life and relationships, discovering new truths about yourself and more.
Prayer
We pray together. We learn to pray and utilize prayer to help us in all we learn and discover true care and counseling from God. This is the default response to everything in our lives.
Commitment
We are fully committed to going on this journey with you, therefore, we ask that you also commit to at least a 6-month care plan to ensure the work we do together is permanent and not just a temporary fix. Learning and discovery takes time and effort. We’re here for you!
Individual Support
At the point when you commit to our care and counseling, you become part of the Preserve International Community. This means we offer care to help walk with you through your challenges and celebrate with you when successes come your way.
Healing Time
One of the biggest things standing in the way of healing are the attitudes that permeate the heart and mind. We will explore how healing happens and how to develop the attitudes that promote healing.
Scheduling
Our meetings will generally be scheduled for one hour and together we will determine frequency. You will have access to your personal portal to schedule our sessions in advance (virtually or in person).
After-Care Plan
We will schedule a 30-day and 90 days check in as part of your after- care plan. The check in time-lines may be different depending on the reason for you scheduling the intensive. We also connect you with experienced and trusted counselors and we can play a role of supporters while you obtain technical help.
