What is the PTI?
The Intensive is a powerful personal growth program for anyone seeking to live life to its fullest. Using innovative and powerful techniques, such as Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy, Psychodrama in Trance, and Breathwork in a safe and accepting group setting, the PTI creates healing and transformation that both compliments and goes beyond individual therapy. The program focuses on healing trauma, co-dependency, the inner child, addiction, and limiting self belief while enhancing relationships, self confidence, and empowerment.
How Does the PTI Work?
The PTI is structured as a five month program that meets one weekend each month from 2 PM Friday to 5 PM Sunday for a total of 125 hours. The PTI is facilitated by Rob and Mary Anne Speigel, a married couple and two specially trained transformational psychotherapists whose professional direction and positive energy provide an atmosphere of healing and growth.
"When my son died, grief counseling saved my life. The material and growth I experienced in PTI vastly improved my life."
Bill O.
"The PTI brought much needed awareness into my life – something I hope to forever continue. The bonding experience with the group has been a great source of joy."
Molly
"Transformation is an understatement. The experiential work of the PTI has been the missing component of the healing work I’ve done in the past. Ten years of traditional talk therapy did not bring me as far as the 1st weekend did. The inner self of me is truly transformed – the negative chatter has been silenced. The gentle nurturing manner in which the leaders of this program guided us was outstanding – Rob, Marianne, Zoe, Patti – you are truly special. I am grateful to the universe for bringing this opportunity to me under your skilled and loving hands."
Barb
"The PTI has been the most profound healing experience, bringing me closer to my authentic self to address my issues at a core level."

"I am completely elated with my PTI experience. I found my true self, and now understand when and why I lost myself along my life’s journey. I have met and bonded with an amazing group of beautiful people. The experiences we’ve shared together are life-changing and more precious than anything I have ever known in a group setting. The unconditional love, support and acceptance from so many unique and caring people has restored my trust in others, knowing that we came together for this purpose, and there are other people in my future who are meant to know me. I can now recognize who these people will be – who I will be able to trust and be myself with at all times. Every minute and expense was priceless."

"I am amazed at the process. I was petrified to do this, but have gained so much. Thank you. The intensity of this work provided more personal growth than I ever imagined occurring in such a “short time”. I am a different and more complete person due to my experiences and learning in this PTI. I was able to face and begin the healing process on traumas and challenges that seemed impossible for me to ever recover from or deal with in a healthy, growing manner. Thank you Rob and Marianne with all my heart!"
Kathy J.
"The PTI transformed the way I respond to stressful situations. I have developed a much more extensive toolbox of resources for facing fears and difficulties. Sharing and bonding with the other participants was a significant piece of the healing pie – witnessing the true transformation of other participants was inspiring and also helped contribute energetically to my own healing. Rob and Marianne, I cannot thank you enough for this deep and authentic program of healing. I know I have many more miles to walk, but you have provided me with a solid foundation for my first baby steps and beyond! Thank you and bless you both."
Jennifer K
" The PTI has been instrumental in allowing me to reach deeper levels of my being. I have gone places within myself that I never thought I would reach. I know myself more after the PTI than after years of therapy."

"I am so thankful I said “yes” to do the PTI program. It has helped me change my life, to take the chance to learn about myself and my power to attract positive things in my life. I’m learning to love myself so I can love and relate to others in a positive way."
