A healing intensive is a customized block of therapy (3–12 total hours) designed to support deeper processing and integration over a shorter period of time than weekly therapy.

Rather than starting and stopping each week, intensives allow for:

• Greater continuity and momentum

• More time for nervous system regulation and grounding

• Focused work on specific trauma themes, memories, or patterns

• Integration that supports lasting change—not just insight

Intensives are not rushed. Sessions are carefully structured, grounded in nervous-system regulation, and paced to support safety and integration.

Your intensive may include:

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

A trauma therapy approach that helps reduce distress connected to painful memories and shifts negative beliefs that can remain “stuck” after trauma.

IFS / Parts Work (Internal Family Systems)

A compassionate approach that helps you understand and heal the protective parts of you that developed in response to trauma, stress, or relational wounds.

Together, EMDR and IFS can support:

• Healing traumatic memories with greater internal safety

• Reducing shame and self-blame

• Improving emotional regulation

• Strengthening self-trust and internal leadership

• Moving out of survival mode and into sustainable healing

For safety and clinical appropriateness, intensives may not be recommended if you are currently experiencing:

• Active substance dependence

• Acute psychosis or mania

• Severe dissociation without stabilization supports

• Limited support or high instability following sessions

Readiness and safety are always assessed prior to scheduling.

(Required for New Clients)

Package pricing does not include the Pre-Intensive Interview fee.

Before scheduling an intensive, new clients complete a 90-minute Pre-Intensive Interview. This is not a traditional intake—it is a collaborative preparation and readiness session designed to ensure your intensive is safe, intentional, and healing-focused.

During the Pre-Intensive Interview, we:

• Clarify goals and intentions for healing

• Identify trauma themes and protective patterns

• Assess nervous-system capacity and pacing needs

• Build resourcing and stabilization supports

• Create a plan for your intensive sessions

Pre-Intensive Workbook (Digital)

Before your interview, you will receive a digital workbook to complete. The workbook includes reflective prompts, gentle parts-mapping, and grounding practices to support preparation and focus our time together.

Pre-Intensive Interview (90 minutes): $425

For existing clients, this requirement may be modified at the clinician’s discretion.

EMDR & IFS Healing Intensives are a form of psychotherapy and are not medical treatment, crisis services, or a substitute for emergency or inpatient care.

Participation in a Pre-Intensive Interview does not guarantee approval for an intensive. Clinical appropriateness, safety, and readiness are assessed prior to scheduling, and the clinician reserves the right to recommend alternative treatment options if an intensive is not indicated.

Outcomes of trauma therapy vary by individual, and no specific results can be guaranteed. EMDR & IFS Intensives are not intended to diagnose, treat, or cure medical or psychiatric conditions outside the scope of psychotherapy.
