When getting relief fast is important.

Intensive EMDR essentially is having longer sessions over a shorter period of time in order to get symptom relief faster. Rather than longer term traditional once a week sessions for 55 minutes, we meet more often for a minimum of 90 minutes. For some, ‘ripping off the band-aid’ so to speak feels more their style rather than slowly working through uncomfortable feelings week after week. Clients that prefer to work intensively tend to have tried other approaches of therapy that have not been as helpful as they’d like and they’re ready to deal with the tough stuff already, knowing they have the skills and resources to do so.

Whether working intensively as an adjunct client that has a primary therapist, or you’re interested in a specific start and stop date with a Mini-Intensive package, part of trauma-informed care is having choices!

CUSTOMIZABLE MINI-INTENSIVE PACKAGES

Mini-Intensives are ideal if you already have a primary therapist and feel stuck around certain moments in time of processing or if there is a specific single trauma incident. The EMDR intensive model:

-Reduces time away from work and life by completing sessions in a timelier manner.

-Saves overall investment often decreasing the need for ongoing therapy longer term.

Trauma-informed yoga, massage, and/or other art services are highly recommended to prepare for and support holistic healing. While these services are optional, local referrals will be provided and can be added al la carte to packages.

**Working intensively is not a good fit for all and more than one mini intensive may be needed, depending on your treatment goals. Individuals with more complex trauma histories may be considered for longer intensives IF a primary therapist is involved for continued support, making this adjunct EMDR.
