EMDR Intensives: A Faster Approach To Healing

Trauma and grief can look different for everyone. EMDR Intensive Therapy is a powerful way to accelerate your healing and relief that you would experience in a standard 50-minute EMDR session. Instead of going to counseling sessions weekly for an hour at a time and possibly losing the momentum week to week, you get to plan for a specific allotted time, like 2 hours, or 2-3 days in a week or weekend, for more intensive therapeutic work. It is a concentrated way to determine the effectiveness of EMDR therapy without having to spend time in between sessions. While everyone is unique in their experience, some have found they can do 2 to 3 months’ worth of healing and work they would have gotten in weekly sessions into one or two intensive sessions.

Pre-Intensive Interview

A 2-hour session scheduled in advance allows us to discuss the goals of the intensive and prepare for the experience. Together, we will identify themes in your life that may be keeping you stuck, painful or distressing memories, as well as beliefs and/or emotions/sensations that you need relief from. We will discuss any other personalized items or things that may help you feel more comfortable and confident that you can bring with you or that I can have on hand that may help (i.e. snacks, water, etc.).

Personalized Treatment Workbook

This workbook is designed to provide you with assessments and activities to prepare you for the intensive. It also allows you to track your treatment goals at the beginning stages prior to, during, and after the intensive sessions.

Customized Treatment Program

The intensive sessions, which can be held in my office in Corpus Christi, Texas, or virtually for those who cannot travel or prefer virtual sessions, are designed with your flexibility in mind. They are scheduled in advance for 7-9 days for 2 hours each day (unless we agreed to a different length of time that works better for you).

Integrative Therapy Experience

This is curated with your needs in mind and the option to enrich your sessions with soothing sounds, movement, grounding, meditations, aromatherapy, muscle relaxation, and much more, making your journey even more unique.

Post-Intensive Interview

The post-intensive interview, a 2-hour session, is a crucial part of our commitment to your continued progress. It provides an opportunity to discuss any insights gained from the experience, debrief, and reflect on areas of relief and transformation. We will also be able to discuss your next steps toward continued growth and healing, ensuring you continue to flourish after the intensive.
