EMDR Therapy Intensives
Customised therapy for individuals seeking accelerated relief and results.
Why choose intensive EMDR therapy?
The traditional model of weekly counselling/therapy sessions psychotherapy is shifting to meet your needs. Now more than ever, we need flexibility in how we get support. EMDR intensives are personalized treatment plans that allow you to skip the waitlist by giving you faster access to select spots, and are designed to support your preferred schedule and timeline for your treatment goals.
Does this sound like you?
You have been meaning to get into weekly counselling appointments for a while now, but your schedule has been so hectic and demanding that a weekly therapy appointment feels more overwhelming than supportive.
You’re needing help and you don’t want to spend months in the traditional weekly model of therapy treatment to feel better.
Perhaps you’ve had a felt sense that something profound has yet to change, but you’re not quite sure how to shift all the way into a new experience of yourself with your current therapist. Maybe you now cognitively understand new things, yet your body is still confused, so you’re curious about how intensive EMDR therapy can help as you work with your primary talk therapist.
Intensive application of trauma-focused therapy seems to be well tolerated in patients with PTSD, enabling faster symptom reduction with similar, or even better, results, while reducing the risk that patients drop out prematurely.

What are the benefits of
intensive EMDR therapy?
Intensive EMDR treatment is feasible and is indicative of reliable improvement in PTSD symptoms in a very short time frame.
An intensive program using EMDR therapy is a potentially safe and effective treatment alternative for complex PTSD.
The economy is compelling: even compared to other trauma therapy, the intensive format may decrease treatment time, because of time not spent on
a) checking in at the beginning of each session
b) addressing current crises and concerns
c) focusing on stabilizing and coping skills that the client won’t need after trauma healing
d) assisting the client in regaining composure at the end of the session.
