Why Choose an EMDR Intensive?

EMDR Intensives

An EMDR Intensive may be right for you if:

  • You’re carrying the weight of a painful experience that still affects your life

  • You’ve previously benefited from EMDR therapy and want to build on those gains

  • You want to mentally and emotionally prepare for a major life event, such as:

    • A wedding

    • Becoming a parent

    • An upcoming medical procedure

    • Starting a new job or moving to a new city

  • You’re in weekly therapy but feel stuck, or you sense you’re on the brink of a breakthrough

How Do EMDR Intensives Work?

Before starting your EMDR Intensive, we begin with a Pre-Intensive Interview to clarify your goals and lay the groundwork for our time together. During this session, we’ll explore your current life circumstances, including your support system, stressors, coping strategies, and areas where you’re seeking relief, growth, or a significant breakthrough.

During the EMDR Intensive, our work focuses on two key objectives:

  1. Reducing the impact of painful experiences to help them feel less overwhelming

  2. Enhancing the positive aspects of your life so they feel even more meaningful and fulfilling

We achieve these goals through a combination of:

  • Reprocessing: A structured process designed to desensitize distressing memories and promote healing

  • Resourcing Activities: Techniques that incorporate bilateral stimulation.

  • In addition, we may also use:

    • Guided meditation

    • Sand tray therapy

    • Art-based exercises

Depending on your journey, we may:

  • Dive into early life relationships and attachment patterns to address foundational issues

  • Focus on future-oriented goals, helping you prepare for new challenges and opportunities

This process is highly personalized and tailored to your unique needs and goals.
