Marriage & Family Therapy Retreats

Helping Families & Couples Grow and Heal in a Beautiful Non-clinical Vacation Setting

A Different Approach to Help Couples and Families Heal and Strengthen Relationships

Set in beautiful San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, a surfing, birdwatching, eco-vacation paradise, Family Therapy Vacations Clinical Associates (FTVCA) offer a unique opportunity for couples & families seeking to find, or restore happy and mutually supportive relationships.  Operating outside of a traditional clinical setting this model for addressing difficulty within marriages and families centers on the process of improving communication, mutual understanding and the accessing of forgiveness, and acceptance.



Surrounded by the extraordinary beauty of the South Pacific coast of Nicaragua, couples and families find avenues for new beginnings difficult to access in the context of their everyday lives.  As they surf, explore volcanoes, visit with the Howler monkeys, bird watch, sit on the beaches, pass the afternoon in our beautiful villa, eat wonderful food and soak up the Latin culture, they also spend time each day with  the FTVCA clinicians working to let go of old hurts and ingrained struggles that have negatively impacted their relationships.
