INTENSIVES
WHOLE EMBODIED PSYCHOTHERAPY Invites you to heal at the intersection of mind, body + spirit.
Intensives offer the ability to accelerate your healing.
WHAT IS AN INTENSIVE?
Rather than meeting for 45 minutes every week, you meet for multiple hours to multiple days allowing you to experience healing quicker.
Imagine if you could do the work of months of weekly therapy in just a few days. Intensives are highly effective and can allow you to do weeks to months of therapy in days. Intensives are customized to meet your needs and goals.
Read the blog article, “Is an intensive right for you?”
You start to make progress and then it’s time to wrap up. Maybe you’ve tried EMDR but it was too difficult to start and stop processing with a week in-between. Some clients do well with EMDR but they need more time to feel safe to really go deep. Maybe weekly therapy doesn’t fit your schedule or you simply don’t want to wait weeks or months to start feeling better.
Do you feel like weekly therapy isn’t quite enough time?

Intensives begin with a 90 minute pre-intensive session where we get to know one another and set goals for the intensive.
After this session, you will receive a customized workbook for you to use before, during, and after the intensive to maximize your experience and healing. The intensive itself is customized to your needs.
Intensive sessions are 90 minutes to 3 hours long. There are options for up to 3 consecutive days.
After the intensive, we will meet once more for a 45 minute post-intensive session.
Weekday and weekend options are available.

Value is individual and intensives are not right for everyone but for those with a specific goal and who wish to do the work more quickly, intensives can be a great value.
Half-day intensives (3 hour) include the equivalent of 7 face-to-face sessions plus a 40+ page customized workbook which will be reviewed by your therapist. For many it allows them to accomplish the work of 2 to 3 months* of weekly therapy sessions.
Three day intensives (9 hours) can accomplish up to a years' worth* of weekly therapy.
In weekly therapy you spend part of the session discussing the time between sessions at the start and wrapping up at the end of the session. Intensives allow more uninterrupted time to focus on your goals which for many clients allows them to accomplish the same goal in less time.
Moreover, for many clients, the greatest value is the ability to feel better sooner. Intensive can provide relief in days versus months.
*Every client is unique and progress made will be unique to each client.

There are options for both. Often the pre-intensive or post-intensive sessions will be virtual with the intensive itself being in-person but there are options for fully in-person or fully virtual.

Most intensives will utilize EMDR as the primary modality but I also incorporate IFS and various somatic modalities.
