EMDR Intensives offer a short-term, extended-session option for trauma treatment when weekly therapy doesn’t feel like the right fit. This format allows for deeper, more focused processing while maintaining safety, pacing, and nervous system support. More focused time can sometimes create more momentum.
EMDR Intensives are not about rushing healing, they’re about creating enough space for the work your system is already asking for.
An EMDR Intensive is a structured format that provides longer therapy sessions over one or two days rather than spreading the work out over months. This approach allows for continuity, containment, and depth, while remaining grounded in trauma-informed care.
Each intensive is thoughtfully planned and paced, with preparation and integration built into the process.

What to Expect
1. Consultation & Planning
We’ll start with a consultation to discuss your goals, determine whether an intensive or extended session feels like the right fit, and answer any questions you may have.
2. Preparation
Before jumping into deeper work, we’ll spend time identifying goals, understanding patterns, building resources, and making sure you feel ready.
3. Focused Processing
Whether you choose a mini intensive, full-day intensive, or ongoing therapy, sessions are designed to create space for meaningful work without feeling rushed.
4. Integration & Next Steps
Healing does not stop when a session ends. We’ll spend time helping you leave feeling grounded and discuss recommendations for ongoing support or next steps. Follow up sessions to review progress are strongly encouranged
Every intensive experience looks a little different. Some sessions may involve EMDR, while others may focus on processing, regulation skills, or other approaches depending on your goals and needs.
