EMDR Intensives

There are several reasons why EMDR Intensives work better for clients than the traditional model of weekly psychotherapy. Sometimes, weekly therapy is too demanding on your schedule and can feel more overwhelming than helpful. Sometimes, we need more help than what traditional, weekly therapy can give in order to relieve symptoms of trauma more efficiently. Whatever your reason, EMDR Intensives are available to support you during times you need help the most.

Although the cost of EMDR Intensives is greater up front, it is the most cost-effective option in the long run. The intensive format may decrease treatment time, because of time not spent on 1) checking in at the beginning of each session, 2) addressing current crises and concerns, 3) focusing on stabilizing coping skills that the client won't need after trauma healing, or 4) assisting the client in regaining composure at the end of the session.

Your Intensive Includes

90-Min Planning Session

We'll talk about what you want help with, what you've been through, and what you need to feel safe and supported. This helps us make sure your experience is right for you.

Personalized Prep Guide

You'll get a helpful guide before your session with tips, journal prompts, and tools to help you feel ready and grounded before, during and after our time together.

3-Hour EMDR Session

This is where the real work happens. In a calm and caring space, we'll use EMDR - a proven approach that helps your brain and body process hard experiences and feelings, so they stop feeling so heavy.

1-Hour Follow-Up Session

A few days later, we'll check in again to talk about what came up, what you're noticing, and what support you might need going forward.

Support Along the Way

You'll have access to me during the process, in case you have questions or just want to share how things are going. You won't be doing this alone.
