Reduce symptoms & find stability in a shorter period of time through focused EMDR Intensives in 1-day, 2-day, and 3-day formats.
Deep immersion for steady momentum. We don't move fast; we stay long enough to let the work move through you.
Sometimes, the steady rhythm of weekly therapy is exactly what you need to stay grounded. Other times, you may find yourself ready to address a specific "stuck point" or a recurring trauma symptom, only to find that the 55-minute hour feels like an interruption just as you are beginning to settle into the work.
For many high-functioning adults, the "start-and-stop" nature of weekly sessions can make it difficult to find the depth required for lasting resolution. EMDR Intensives are designed to remove those boundaries. By providing a dedicated, uninterrupted space, we allow your nervous system the time it needs to find a natural momentum—accomplishing deep, focused work that typically unfolds over many months of traditional therapy.
Why an Intensive?
Momentum: We stay in the "work" without the start-and-stop of weekly check-ins.
Efficiency: Ideal for busy professionals who cannot commit to months of weekly appointments.
Deep Resolution: We have the space to follow a thread to its root and stay there until the "sting" is gone.
The EMDR Intensive Experience
Your Intensive isn’t just a long therapy session; it is a curated, comprehensive process designed to support your nervous system from start to finish. Every Intensive includes:
A 90-minute deep dive to identify your specific "stuck points," gather history, and set clear goals.
Pre-Intensive Consultation
A structure and process specifically tailored to your history—whether we are targeting a single shock trauma or a lifelong relational pattern.
Personalized Treatment Plan
A customized physical workbook to help you ground yourself before we begin and process your insights long after we finish.
Preparation & Integration Workbook
We don't just "process the past." We spend time connecting your healing to your future, ensuring your new insights align with the life you want to lead.
Values-Focused Integration
The EMDR & Integration Workbook
A Guide for Intensive Healing
Trauma therapy is not only about what happens in the therapy room. Meaningful change often unfolds through preparation, reflection, and integration—before, during, and after the intensive itself.
The EMDR Reflection & Integration Workbook was created as a companion journal for individuals participating in an EMDR intensive. It offers a structured space to prepare for sessions, reflect on what emerges during processing, and notice the gradual shifts that take shape over time.
Rather than rushing the process, this workbook invites a slower kind of attention. It provides prompts and tools that help you prepare for deep work and note your goals, track emotional patterns, reconnect with internal resources, and make sense of the changes that begin to unfold as trauma memories are processed.
The goal is not to force insight or progress, but to create a place where your experiences can be observed, recorded, and understood more clearly as your healing continues.

Is an Intensive Right for you?
Intensives are particularly effective for:
Shock Trauma: Lingering distress from a specific accident, medical event, or act of violence.
Performance Blocks: High-performers dealing with "imposter syndrome" or fears that have become physical.
Relational Healing: Clearing the "aftershocks" of a recent breakup or a long-standing family dynamic.
