What is an EMDR Intensive and is it right for me?

An EMDR Intensive is an accelerated treatment format that condenses the healing process into extended half-day to week-long sessions rather than traditional weekly appointments. It is appropriate for anyone who has found weekly therapy helpful but is not fully achieving their desired results. Intensives are particularly effective for processing trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and attachment wounds. Our clinicians weave multiple evidence-based approaches into the intensive format, including EMDR, Internal Family Systems (IFS), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, Somatics, Expressive Arts, and CBT. Please note that EMDR Intensives are not appropriate for those currently in active crisis. If you are interested, the process begins with an initial consultation to determine whether the intensive format is a good fit for your goals.
