Therapy Intensives
A therapy intensive is an accelerated form of therapy. It is not your traditional weekly therapy appointment, but a deep dive into your goals through extended sessions over the course of 2-4 weeks. I offer EMDR therapy intensives and IFS therapy intensives in Austin, TX.
The Process:
We begin with a free 20 minute consultation call to discuss whether an intensive is right for you. Intensives are great for people who are looking to hit the ground running, and ready to address childhood or a recent trauma right away. If we decide it's right for you, we will schedule an intake session and 2-4 extended 90 minute sessions over the course of a few weeks.
During the Intensive
The intake session will include history taking and goal setting. You will receive a workbook that helps you identify and reflect on emotions, beliefs, and patterns you want to address during the intensive. During your 90 minute extended sessions, you will engage in mindfulness exercises, processing exercises, and install new positive beliefs about yourself. Intensives take place at my Austin, TX office location.
Intensive Outcomes
Once you've completed your extended sessions, we will check in about how you are feeling and what has been accomplished. If you feel as though there is more trauma or distress to process, we can schedule another follow up appointment. Upon completion of intensives, people report improved sleep, less intrusive thoughts, improved self-confidence, increased calm, more clarity, fewer flashbacks, less rumination, less anxiety and panic symptoms, and general feelings of "lightness".
