Here are some answers to common questions about EMDR Accelerated Intensive Therapy and what it’s like to work with me. Don’t see your question answered here? Contact me, and I’ll get back to you within two business days or less.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy that helps your brain heal from painful memories and experiences. When something upsetting happens, your brain can get “stuck,” making those memories feel just as intense as when they first happened. EMDR uses guided eye movements or other forms of gentle stimulation to help your brain reprocess these memories, so they feel less overwhelming and more like part of your past. This allows you to reflect on difficult experiences without being overwhelmed by them.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) can help you feel more at ease with your past, so it no longer feels like it’s running your life. It gently guides your brain to process painful memories in a way that helps them lose their intensity, so you can feel calmer and safer. Many people find they feel lighter, more in control, and more hopeful as they move through the process. EMDR makes it easier to move forward and enjoy life with more peace. You can begin to feel like you again.
Absolutely! EMDR sessions can be done online for anyone in Texas, or we can meet in person in Corpus Christi, TX. Many people prefer to meet online from the comfort of their own homes, while others enjoy the privacy and connection of being in the same room together. It depends on your comfort level and what works best for you.
I work using an Accelerated Intensive Model, meaning we have longer sessions and fewer appointments. This accelerated format allows us to go deeper so you can feel better faster. Visit the EMDR Intensives page for more details.
Option #1: The EMDR Accelerated Intensive Journey
We will tailor your needs with 8 weekly sessions or less. Each session will be 2-3 hours each week. We will pick one area of concern to focus on in-depth so you can experience immediate relief.
Option #2: EMDR Accelerated Intensives
EMDR Accelerated Intensives are a powerful way to jump-start the healing process. You can book 4-8 hours of EMDR therapy sessions in 1-2 days. This is perfect for anyone ready for a quick breakthrough or who doesn’t have time for weekly sessions.
Option #3: Monthly or Quarterly EMDR
For those with a less flexible schedule, our Monthly or Quarterly EMDR option offers sessions that span 4-8 hours, once a month. You can choose to complete the 4-8 hours in a single day or split them into two back-to-back days. This option also allows for additional support from another therapist for day-to-day stress, ensuring our focus remains solely on processing trauma with EMDR.

Please inquire about payment plans. A 50% non-refundable fee is required at the time of initial booking. This is to secure your time slot. The remaining balance will be split into 2 payments. These payments will be taken at the time of scheduling your 2nd and 3rd sessions. All fees must be paid in full before the 3rd session.
Unfortunately, no. Insurance will not cover due to the longer sessions.
All my services are private pay. You can use a current major credit card, FSA, HSA, Zelle, or cash.
