What is an intensive?

An EMDR Intensive is an accelerated form of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy that offers accelerated health for trauma & anxiety.

Unlike traditional weekly sessions, an intensive offers concentrated treatment over a shorter period, typically 3-5 days. This focused approach is tailored to your specific goalsallows for rapid progress in processing and healing from traumatic experiences or pains from the past. Processing is tailored to your specific goals

To prepare, we will meet for a Pre-Intensive Interview to clarify your goals for the Intensive, identify your support system and how you with stress, and identify specific targets for our work together. This will help give me all the information I need to best support you.

During an EMDR intensive, you will engage in multiple EMDR sessions each day in order to:

  1. Help your past pains feel less painful

  2. Strengthen the things things that are more helpful and make you feel good

This concentrated exposure helps your brain process traumatic memories more efficiently.

This leads to a significant reduction in symptoms like anxiety, depression, and nightmares.

It's important to note that while EMDR intensives offer rapid results, they are not a one-size-fits-all solution

We might focus most on early life experiences, specific traumatic events, triggers in your current life, or how you envision meeting challenges in your future. The process is entirely customized and specific to you.

After the Intensive, we’ll meet for a Post-Intensive Interview to reflect on your most powerful takeaways and to discuss incorporating the growth that you’ve seen into your life.

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) works by helping the brain process traumatic memories through guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation. During a session, a therapist guides you in recalling distressing memories while simultaneously engaging in eye movements, sounds, or taps, which helps the brain reprocess and integrate the memory in a healthier way. Over time, the emotional intensity of the memory decreases, allowing you to heal from past trauma and move forward with greater emotional resilience.

  • Intensives differ from regular therapy by offering a concentrated and focused approach, allowing for deeper work to be accomplished in a shorter period of time. Instead of weekly sessions, intensives provide extended hours over a few days, giving clients the opportunity to address and process complex issues more quickly and thoroughly.

  • You might be a good fit for an intensive if you’re looking to address deep-seated trauma or emotional challenges in a focused, accelerated timeframe. If you feel stuck in traditional therapy, have limited time for weekly sessions, or want to make significant progress quickly, an EMDR intensive may be right for you.

  • An EMDR intensive can help address issues like perfectionism, overachieving, and people-pleasing by uncovering the deep-rooted emotional patterns driving these behaviors. Through concentrated sessions, it helps you process underlying trauma or experiences that may have contributed to the need for control, approval, or validation. By resolving these core issues, intensives can empower you to break free from unhealthy patterns and create healthier, more balanced ways of living and relating to others. t can also address challenges such as phobias, grief, and relationship difficulties, helping to resolve emotional pain that may be affecting your daily life. Additionally, intensives are effective for improving self-esteem and breaking through long-standing emotional blocks, allowing you to move forward with greater confidence and clarity.

  • Before an EMDR intensive, you’ll typically be asked to complete a thorough intake assessment to identify key issues and goals for the sessions. You may also be encouraged to reflect on specific memories, emotions, or triggers you want to work on, which helps your therapist tailor the process to your needs. Additionally, practicing self-care and preparing for the emotional intensity of the work can be helpful to ensure you are mentally and physically ready for the experience.
