“…the best way out is always through.”
EMDR Intensives are half-day, full-day, and muti-day accelerated therapy programs using EMDR therapy to assist in the more rapid resolution of problematic symptoms and restoration of effective functioning in life and relationships. They can be pursued as a single service or in addition to ongoing individual therapy with me or with an existing therapist. Some potential reasons one might want to pursue an EMDR Intensive include:
feeling stuck or experiencing a lack of progress in traditional talk therapy or weekly therapy
seeking for more rapid resolution of a single stressful or traumatic experience
seeking to jump start work on childhood or other chronic traumatic experiences from the past
desire to see if EMDR can be a helpful tool for performance enhancement or relief of problematic and sticky symptoms and barriers.
EMDR sessions under 90 minutes feel cut short, incomplete, did not relieve distress in a significant way, or you were not able to advance to addressing the body or soma with shorter EMDR sessions
I offer EMDR Intensives on Mondays, Fridays and weekends for multi-day intensives. The entire EMDR Intensive takes place on-line, and you may be in any place in California or Arizona that feels like a grounded and centered place to go into this work. I have an interest list for those who would like to do an intensive in person with me in the following locations: Tucson, Arizona; Los Angeles, California.
I meet with participants before the intensive to assess and prepare, and meet again after the intensive to support integration of the experience. Each intensive is as unique as the person or couple or relationship unit participating in it, but the following offers an example of structure and pricing. Please reach out to me to discuss your goals and see if I might be the right fit for you.
Most popular option: Full Day Intensive. Three 90-minute EMDR reprocessing sessions. Debrief same day. $1,200. Available Fridays or Mondays. $2,000 for Saturday or Sunday.
Two Day Intensive: Six total reprocessing sessions and a debrief each day. $2,400. Available Friday and the following Monday. $2,500 for Friday and Saturday or Sunday and Monday option. $3,000 for Saturday and Sunday.

Each option includes one 45-minute preparation session and one 45-minute integration session within the same two week period. I offer free 20-30 minute consultation calls to discuss if an EMDR intensive with me is a fit for you.
“It's got so I don't even know for sure
Whether I am glad, sorry, or anything.
There's nothing but a voice-like left inside
That seems to tell me how I ought to feel,
And would feel if I wasn't all gone wrong.”
