Therapy Intensives

Deep Emotional Work for Real Life

All pricing below reflects updated rates effective January 1, 2026.

Therapy Intensives are designed for clients who want meaningful movement in a short amount of time—whether they are working through trauma or simply feeling overwhelmed by the realities of daily life.

Intensives offer extended, uninterrupted time to explore your emotional landscape, address long-standing patterns, and create space for clarity, regulation, and change.

Therapy Intensives may be pursued as:

  • A stand-alone therapeutic service, or

  • A supplement to ongoing weekly therapy with another provider

Clients choose the format that best fits their needs, goals, and season of life.

What Intensives Can Support

Therapy Intensives are helpful not only for trauma healing, but also for:

  • Burnout and emotional exhaustion

  • Parenthood stress and identity shifts

  • Relationship fatigue or communication spirals

  • Overwhelm from work or life transitions

  • Performance anxiety (tests, presentations, workload, leadership)

  • Stress-based overeating or emotional eating

  • ADHD-related overwhelm, shame cycles, and dysregulation

  • Anxiety that feels constant or difficult to interrupt

  • Depression, numbness, or feeling stuck

  • Big decisions that require clarity and groundedness

How Intensives Fit Into Your Overall Care

Option 1: Stand-Alone Intensive Therapy

Some clients choose intensives as their primary form of therapy, particularly when:

  • Weekly sessions feel insufficient or logistically difficult

  • They want focused, high-impact work without long-term weekly commitments

  • They are navigating a specific stressor, transition, or emotional block

In this model, intensives function as your main therapeutic container, with follow-up sessions scheduled as clinically appropriate.

Option 2: Intensives Alongside an Existing Therapist

Many clients pursue intensives while continuing weekly therapy with another clinician.

With your consent, I collaborate with your therapist to support:

  • Alignment in treatment goals

  • Clinical continuity

  • Integrated aftercare

  • High-level summaries to inform ongoing work

Your primary therapist remains your long-term support system.
Intensives are used to increase momentum, deepen processing, or address stuck areas more efficiently.

Flexible Frequency Options

Intensives are scheduled around your needs and life rhythms. Clients work with me:

🔸 Back-to-back days
🔸 Every 3 weeks
🔸 Every 4–6 weeks
🔸 A few times per year
🔸 During periods of burnout, stress, role transition, or deeper emotional processing

This format works especially well for high-functioning adults, parents, helpers, professionals, and students whose schedules or stress loads make weekly therapy challenging or insufficient.

Modalities Used in Intensives

Therapy Intensives weave together multiple approaches so the work can adapt to the moment:

🌿 ART (Accelerated Resolution Therapy)
🌿 EMDR (standard & intensive formats)
🌿 Somatic & polyvagal-informed therapy
🌿 Attachment, inner child, & parts work
🌿 Cognitive and emotional regulation strategies
🌿 Anxiety and performance readiness tools

This integrative style supports both deep emotional healing and day-to-day functioning.

Specialty Areas Supported Through Intensives

🌿 Burnout, decision fatigue & chronic stress
🌿 Parenthood overwhelm, identity shifts & emotional load
🌿 Relationship strain, communication blocks & emotional distance
🌿 Stress-based overeating or emotional eating
🌿 Performance anxiety (tests, presentations, leadership, career pressure)
🌿 ADHD patterns (motivation, shame cycles, emotional regulation)
🌿 Generalized anxiety & panic
🌿 Depression, numbness & feeling “stuck”
🌿 Grief & traumatic grief
🌿 PTSD, C-PTSD & dissociation
🌿 Perinatal & postpartum mental health
🌿 Family-of-origin patterns & relational wounds
🌿 Co-parenting stabilization & emotional flexibility

Intensives deepen movement in any emotional area that feels stuck, overwhelming, or too complex for a 50-minute session.

Why Intensives Help Clients Move Faster

Longer-format sessions create the spaciousness needed to:

  • Work through stress or trauma without interruption

  • Resolve long-standing emotional patterns in fewer sessions

  • Reduce anxiety or overwhelm more efficiently

  • Strengthen emotional regulation and grounding

  • Break repetitive cycles of burnout or relationship stress

  • Clarify decisions with less reactivity

  • Support both trauma healing and everyday emotional growth

Whether the concern is deep trauma or “life feels like too much right now,” intensives create momentum.

What to Expect

Every intensive is customized, but a general flow includes:

1. Preparation
Intention-setting, nervous system mapping, and goal clarification.

2. Processing
Extended EMDR, ART, somatic, and parts-oriented work—paced to your body and emotional capacity.

3. Integration
Grounding, clarity-building, regulation tools, and closure work.

4. Follow-Up
A structured integration session to support ongoing therapy or daily life.
