EMDR intensives are 3-hour sessions, providing more time for processing. With an intensive session, clients can work through complex memories more efficiently, as the extended time allows for continuous processing that is somewhat limited with standard sessions. If you are a new client, just beginning EMDR, an intensive would allow for proper assessment, treatment planning and treatment to take place in one appointment-  as opposed to these steps being conducted across multiple appointments.

Additionally, for clients who prefer alternating weekly between EMDR sessions and talk therapy sessions, EMDR intensives provide the benefit of increased scheduling flexibility, allowing for a wider range of availability to schedule talk therapy sessions.
 
If you are interested in scheduling an EMDR intensive, please use the contact us below to request a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. During your consultation, your clinician will determine whether or not an EMDR intensive is appropriate. EMDR intensives are not recommended for every client.

Intensives may be scheduled outside of availability shown in the portal pending clinician availability and discretion.
