UTAH LESBIAN COUPLES RETREAT
A Unique Adventure in Love and the #1 Destination Lesbian Couples Retreat Created for Lesbian Relationships |
Couples counseling is only as effective as the provider’s skill-set. Unfortunately, most therapists are not specially trained in relationship care. Adding insult, even significantly fewer are knowledgeable and comfortable with the needs of lesbian couples.
We are different.
We are lesbians.
We are experienced.
And, we are obsessed with growing love.
If you are serious about strengthening your lesbian relationship, keep reading.
ADVENTURES IN LOVE is offering our longest (5 nights) and our largest (up to 9 couples) Lesbian Love Adventure so far!
This adventure combines customized relationship enrichment with an exceptional vacation experience that requires little to no decision making for you.
We will gather on Tuesday, March 22nd at 6:30pm and we will conclude our adventure at 9:30am on Sunday, March 27th.
You can expect to have a fantastic time, while nurturing your relationship with 15 hours of power-packed sessions designed to strengthen, repair and grow your relationship. Retreat sessions will be spread across the five days, allowing you time to play, relax, share meals with us, and adventure out on your own or with Kristen and I and the other couples.
Take the Love Code Quiz to identify your relationship strengths and challenges.
Please Note: ALL PARTICIPANTS ARE REQUIRED TO BE VACCINATIONS TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS INTIMATE EXPERIENCE. PLEASE BE PREPARED TO SEND A PHOTOCOPY OF YOUR VACCINATIONS TO US AFTER YOUR REGISTRATION IS COMPLETE

WHAT COUPLES ARE SAYING ABOUT LESBIAN ADVENTURES IN LOVE LESBIAN COUPLES RETREATS.
I highly recommend it! It doesn’t matter what stage your relationship is in, this experience will benefit you. We were able to open up in a way we haven’t been able to do on our own, and we continue to use the skills at home. The friends we made were an added bonus, we had such a good time! I feel so thankful for the experience. No matter how things turn out we are going to be better co-parents to Greyson because of the tools and knowledge we gained, so thank you, I accomplished my goal.
Angela - Texas (Burwell, NE Retreat October 2018)
It was fantastic. I simply cannot put the experience into words, the best thing I can say is GO!!! Experience this wonderful retreat for yourself! Your life is sure to change for the better!

Six Lesbian LoveCodes♥︎
The 6 Lesbian LoveCodes♥︎, developed by Michele O’Mara, Ph.D., offer you a step-by-step relationship transformation program that emphasizes what TO DO, rather than what to not do. With a fierce focus on WHAT WORKS, the learning process is more enjoyable. It always feels better when you set your sights on where you wish to head, rather than what you don’t want to be experiencing.
This retreat will introduce you to the fundamentals of a satisfying relationship and provide you specific tools and practices to create better behaviors, more effective communication, a more intimate connection, and a stronger relationship. Because you can not talk your way out of a relationship issue that you behaved your way into, we focus on the best relationship habits that, with practice, will lead you to lasting change and relationship satisfaction.
The tools learned during the seminar are very applicable. Highly recommended! Good food, a wonderful mix of people, a good book to take home. Honestly, I wish it was longer!!
Lindsay Thorstenson, Buda, TX (Austin 2019)
A feeling of fun, safety, and inclusion. Michele is highly skilled, real, and compassionate. The retreat allowed us to get real about our issues while making real progress in our relationship.
N. – Washington (Burwell, NE 2018)
