ALL YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

  • Intensives are designed to provide longer and more frequent therapy sessions over a shorter period to accelerate your recovery. It can be in a one-on-one setting or a group setting.

  • The traditional model of weekly psychotherapy is shifting to meet your needs. Now more than ever, you need flexibility in how you get support.

    EMDR intensives are personalized treatment plans that allow you to skip the waitlist by giving you faster access to select spots, and are designed to support your preferred schedule and timeline for your treatment goals.

  • Intensive application of trauma-focused therapy seems to be well tolerated in patients with PTSD, enabling faster symptom reduction with similar, or even better, results, while reducing the risk that patients drop out prematurely.

    Save money over time: even compared to other trauma therapy, the intensive format may decrease treatment time, because of time not spent on things like:

    1) Checking in at the beginning of each session

    2) Addressing current crises and concerns

    3) Focusing on stabilizing and coping skills that won’t be needed after trauma healing

    4) Regaining composure at the end of the session.

  • 1) 90 min pre-intensive assessment session including: history taking, attachment style assessment, etc.

    2) Positive resource installation

    3) EMDR target processing

    4) 90 minute post-intensive session

  • An intensive is right for you if:

    1) You are a current, weekly client who is needing extra, focused support quickly.

    2) You are a new client who just prefers to work intensively

    3) You’ve been meaning to get into weekly therapy for a while now, but your schedule has been so hectic and demanding that a weekly therapy appointment feels more overwhelming than supportive.

    4) You’re needing help —- and a lot of it—- right now, and you don’t want to spend months in the traditional weekly model of therapy treatment to feel better.
