Why choose intensive work? 

​

• The traditional model of weekly psychotherapy is shifting to meet your needs. Now more than ever, we need flexibility in how we get support. An intensive offers the option to achieve a month's worth of therapeutic work in fewer sessions. This creates opportunity for a quicker progression in healing.

• Our EMDR intensives offer personalized treatment plans that allow you to skip the waitlist by giving you faster access to select spots, including weekend options, and are designed to support your preferred schedule and timeline for your treatment goals.

​

Who might be a good candidate for intensive work? 

​

• Perhaps you’ve had a felt sense that something profound has yet to change, but you’re not quite sure how to shift all the way into a new experience of yourself with your current therapist. Maybe you now cognitively understand new things, yet your body is still reactive, so you’re curious about how intensive EMDR therapy can help as you work with your primary talk therapist.

• All intensive clients must have an individual therapist or be willing to establish connection to one before engaging in intensive work. We can also assist with this. 

• Perhaps you’ve been meaning to get into weekly therapy for a while now, but your schedule has been so hectic and demanding that a weekly therapy appointment feels more overwhelming than supportive.

• Perhaps you’re needing help —- and a lot of it—- right now, and you don’t want to spend months in the traditional weekly model of therapy treatment to feel better.

• Perhaps, with COVID, you need more efficient support as the busy parent with kids doing virtual learning and/or the working professional who has even more on their plate since the pandemic.

• Perhaps you are a current, weekly client who is needing extra, focused support quickly.

• Perhaps you are a new client who just prefers to work intensively.

Will I be able to utilize my insurance for an EMDR intensive?

EMDR Intensives are a private pay service and are not covered by insurance. The only services for which we can provide a superbill for you to explore out of network benefits with your insurer are the initial 60 minute intake and any subsequent 60 minute EMDR sessions. (These are not considered to be an intensive format)
