Maybe you…

  • are interested in maximizing your therapy investment and weekly therapy does not fit in your schedule.

  • wonder if you could go deeper than a 50 minute session and get more out of a time of deep healing.

  • have been referred by your primary therapist to add EMDR as an adjunct service

  • want to focus on a specific stuck point or memory that seems to be blocking your progress and not be in regular therapy

  • are a leader and you have been feeling burned out as a therapist, business owner, or faith-leader.

A Therapy Intensive is an accelerated form of therapy designed to help clients go deeper and get results faster.

Instead of attending therapy one hour per week for a year, why not carve out a weekend or a week for Therapy Intensives? It’s a cutting-edge approach to help people feel better faster. No need for a weekly therapy appointment.

In fact, many people think of Therapy Intensives like a retreat. For that weekend or week you can unplug, take time off work, get a babysitter, or even stay in a hotel. This time is completely dedicated to you so you can focus on healing, reflecting, and reconnecting.

Wondering if intensives are right for you?

Intensives could be a good fit for you if :

  • You want to prioritize your mental health AND the weekly schedule of therapy does not pair well with your busy lifestyle and travel schedule.

  • You wish you had more time and space for deep, intentional work than a traditional 45-60 minute therapy session. You want accelerate your progress.

  • You have a milestone or transition coming up (like a wedding, moving states, starting a new job or becoming a parent) and you want an effective way to do concentrated work in a shorter amount of time.

  • You have done EMDR and you want to maximize your progress and tackle more targets in one sitting.You are ready to accelerate your progress.

EMDR Intensives are NOT recommended when:

  • You are satisfied with your weekly or every other week therapy.

  • You love the idea of a slower and steady pace. You want smaller steps to add up over time, not a leap or jump. Accelerating your healing sounds overwhelming to you.

  • You are in a mental health crisis and require 24/7 support.

  • You are actively struggling with self-harm and suicidal thoughts (If you find yourself here and you need crisis help, please reach out to 911 or 988)

Intensive FAQs: General Questions

  • Therapy Intensives are perfect for people that are ready for relief now. If you’re ready to see things change in your life and your relationships but you don’t want to wait for that to happen next year - a Therapy Intensive may be right for you. If you have a specific topic, trauma, or stressor that you want support with - this can be the focus of your Therapy Intensive. The dedicated time will be customized specifically to you and your goals.

  • The intensive format allows to to decrease the getting started and getting wrapped up procedures of weekly therapy. Intensives may decrease treatment time due to certain factors like:

    1) saves time “checking in” at the beginning of each session and allows us to focus on the deeper work longer

    2) we are not focusing on addressing “crises of the week”

    3) it allows us to curate the skills and strategies needed for the intervention that you may not need after trauma healing.

    4) saves time assisting the client in regulating after sessions to be able to return to their every day life.

  • Therapy Intensives are more effective and efficient than normal 50-minute therapy sessions. Typically in a 50-minute session, there are at least 5-10 minutes of “check-in” at the start of the session and usually, 5-10 minutes spent on “closing up” or “checking out” at the end of a session - Leaving only 30-40 minutes for deep therapeutic work. Therapy Intensives are different. A 3-hour Therapy Intensive allows for 2.5 hours of depth work. That’s the equivalent of five 50-minute sessions or more than a month of therapy - in a single day!

  • Absolutely! Therapy Intensives work very well as an adjunct therapy. I would ask that you sign a Release of Information so that your current therapist and I can collaborate/coordinate to best serve you.

  • Yes! I am open to curating the right type of intensive for you. In addition to EMDR therapy, I can offer you a Story Work intensive.

Intensive FAQs: Logistics & Payment

  • Intensives are available online for residents of Florida and Georgia as well as in-person in Orlando, Florida.

    For in-person locations, I partner with a local practice, Thriving Vines and use their space for local in-person intensives.

    Let me know if you are interested in pictures of the rooms and maps of their locations.

  • Yes, Intensives are available virtually across Florida and Georgia.

    Clients can choose what is most convenient and what would allow them to benefit the most from the intensive experience.

    Some people like to be in their own space and many of my clients think of Therapy Intensives like a retreat. For that weekend or week you can unplug, take time off work, get a babysitter, or even stay in a hotel. This time is completely dedicated to you so you can focus on healing, reflecting, and reconnecting.

    Still unsure? Let’s connect and discuss what might be the best option for you and your goals.

  • Great question! This depends on your goals for the Therapy Intensive. Some goals can be reached in a 1 Day Intensive (3 hours), but other goals are more complex and may require a 3 Day Intensive. I can help you determine the number of days that would work best for your therapy goals.

  • A 50% non-refundable deposit is due at the time you book your Therapy Intensive.

    The remaining 50% is due on the first day of the Intensive Session.

  • As you are thinking through finances, I am now a Care Credit provider and able to accept Care Credit for payment.

  • Therapy Intensives are not covered by insurance. However, if you have out-of-network benefits, your insurance company may reimburse a portion of the Therapy Intensive. It’s best to call the customer service number on the back of your insurance card to learn the details about your specific plan. Make sure to ask questions like: Do I have a deductible for out-of-network services? Have I met my deductible? What CPT billing codes do you reimburse (i.e. 90837 or two 90843 in one day)? What is the rate of reimbursement for each billing code? What is the allowable amount for reimbursement?
