For When You’re Ready to Feel Different

Weekly therapy can be powerful—but it isn’t always the best fit for the work you’re ready to do.

If you’re:

  • Preparing for or recovering from a major transition

  • Holding a story that feels too big to unpack one hour at a time

  • Ready to work through something specific, with clarity and intention

An Integrative Intensive offers the structure, spaciousness, and support to help you move through it—with more continuity and depth.

If you’ve been in therapy but feel stuck—or you’re looking for a more focused alternative to weekly sessions—Integrative Intensives offer a deeper, more efficient path forward.

This is therapy designed for depth and momentum.
Focused support, without the wait.

Is an Integrative Intensive Right for You?

An Integrative Intensive might be a good fit if you're:

  • Craving clarity or momentum

  • Ready to dive deep into one specific area

  • Struggling with an issue that feels layered or unresolved

  • Looking for flexibility beyond weekly sessions

  • Wanting to break through a plateau in your healing

This isn’t just a longer therapy session. It’s a different experience altogether—designed for depth, integration, and lasting change.

What Is an Integrative Intensive?

An Integrative Intensive is a half-day or full-day therapy session that offers dedicated space to do deep, focused work—without the stop-and-start of weekly sessions.

You’ll have uninterrupted time to explore the root of what’s going on, process complex emotions or trauma, and leave with a greater sense of clarity and connection.

This format is especially helpful when life feels overwhelming, or when you’re navigating something that doesn’t fit neatly into a 50-minute window. A Therapy Intensive is an accelerated form of therapy designed to help clients go deeper and get results faster.

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.

What Tools Are Used in an Integrative Intensive?

Each intensive is customized to you—not just in what we explore, but how we explore it.

Depending on your needs, I may draw from:

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) to help resolve the effects of trauma and stuck memories

  • BSP (Brainspotting) to access deeper, subcortical processing and allow the body to guide the healing

  • Somatic tools to support nervous system regulation and integration

  • Personalized sound baths or audio tracks, designed to create a calming sensory environment and reinforce new insights

  • Insight-oriented dialogue to make meaning of your experience and clarify what’s next

We’ll co-create a process that feels grounded, responsive, and attuned to your capacity and goals.

What to Expect

Each Integrative Intensive typically includes:

  • A pre-intensive consult to set focus and prepare you for the work

  • A 3–6 hour intensive session, structured with intention and supported breaks

  • A custom blend of modalities, depending on what will serve you best

  • A post-intensive integration session to reflect, process, and plan next steps

This isn’t “one-size-fits-all” therapy. It’s a personalized space for deep emotional, cognitive, and somatic work—held with care and expertise.

Intensive FAQs: General Questions

  • Intensives are ideal for clients carrying something complex, layered, or long-held—like trauma, grief, spiritual disconnection, or relational wounds. They’re also a good fit for life transitions or when you need focused time to reset and reorient.

  • Intensives typically last 3–6 hours, depending on your needs and capacity.

    You’ll have time to go deep—and to rest. Breaks are built in to help your nervous system stay grounded throughout.

  • Every intensive is tailored to you. We might draw from EMDR, Brainspotting (BSP), somatic therapy, personalized soundscapes, and intuitive, insight-based work and faith-based imagery if you choose.

    It’s a blend of evidence-based tools and integrative practices—always designed with your specific needs in mind.

  • Each intensive includes a pre-session consultation, a custom-designed intensive experience, and a post-session integration session. You may also receive optional personalized tools—like a custom sound bath or integration prompts—to support continued reflection.

  • 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.

  • Not at all. Integrative Intensives are open to new and returning clients. If we haven’t worked together before, we’ll start with a free consultation to make sure this format aligns with your goals and readiness.

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.

  • I'm open to creating a payment plan that works for you, as long as the full balance is paid by the first day of your intensive.

    I'm also currently exploring partnerships with third-party providers so you can access financing options on a timeline that feels more manageable.

  • 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?

    As you consider finances, please note we are now a Care Credit provider and able to accept Care Credit for payment Learn more here.
