Frequently Asked Questions:
Joining a Therapy Intensive
-
A therapy intensive is an extended, focused therapy session — typically a half-day or full-day format — that allows deeper healing work than a standard 50-minute session. It's designed for clients who want to accelerate their progress on trauma, ADHD, anxiety, or life transitions.
-
Weekly therapy builds gradually over time. A therapy intensive compresses that work into a concentrated period, making it ideal for clients who want faster breakthroughs or who have limited availability for ongoing weekly sessions.
-
Therapy intensives are well-suited for high-performing adults dealing with trauma, PTSD, anxiety, grief, or life transitions — especially those who feel "stuck" in traditional weekly therapy or want to go deeper, faster.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), somatic experiencing, CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based tools — all tailored to your specific needs and goals. I bring all the tools in my toolbox with me but we also plan ahead with an intake session and a planning session beforehand to ensure that we accomplish our goals together.
-
Before the intensive, an intake appointment is scheduled to review your history, goals, and the modalities best suited to your counseling needs. This ensures the therapy intensive is focused and effective from the start. We start with your needs and goals in mind, and create a map to get you where you need to get.
Currently therapy intensives are a fee-for-service offering. Please reach out to your insurance company directly to inquire about potential out-of-network reimbursement. HSA/FSA cards may also be used.
