EMDR Intensives
More progress in less time.
EMDR intensives are condensed blocks of focused treatment. They are designed to help you achieve accelerated results in fewer sessions. Because we can delve deeper and stay there longer, it allows for more comprehensive processing. With a typical therapy model, there’s always time spent checking in and closing out. Over time, this adds up, and it may not be the most efficient use of our time together. What if you could get to the core of your issue more efficiently, experiencing meaningful work in a shorter amount of time?
What exactly is an intensive?
Intensives can range from multi-day, full-day, or half-day sessions. I currently offer mini-intensives, which are shorter blocks that last either 2, 2.5, or 3 hours - it’s like doing three to six therapy sessions at once! We can do deep work without having to stop because “time is up.” In a traditional 50-minute session, it’s possible to get about 20-30 minutes of processing time, which often doesn’t feel like enough - both for you as the person who has been living with the issue and for the clinician who hopes to bring relief to their clients. Research on intensives shows that this is a cost-effective treatment for clients.
Let’s do great work together.
Intensives may be a good option for you if…
You’ve been struggling with an issue for a while and want to do deeply focused work (i.e., traumatic events, performance anxiety, etc.).
You have a primary therapist who doesn’t offer EMDR and want to work on a specific issue.
Traditional weekly sessions don’t fit into your schedule, or you simply prefer to make progress in a condensed timeframe.
You want to spend less time in therapy sessions and more time enjoying your life!
