EMDR Intensives

EMDR Intensives offer a focused, extended approach to Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy. Instead of meeting for traditional weekly sessions, intensives provide longer sessions over a shorter period of time, allowing clients to work more deeply and efficiently on specific concerns. (If you are curious what EMDR is, please check out the ‘Types of Therapy’ Tab at the top of the page).

This format can be especially helpful for individuals who feel stuck in weekly therapy, have limited availability, or want dedicated time to address distressing experiences in a structured and supportive environment.

What to Expect:

EMDR Intensives use the same evidence-based EMDR framework, with additional time built in for:

  • Preparation and stabilization

  • Processing targeted memories or themes

  • Breaks, grounding, and nervous system regulation

  • Integration and aftercare planning

Sessions are thoughtfully paced and tailored to each client’s needs, with safety and consent prioritized throughout the process.

Who EMDR Intensives May Be Helpful For:

EMDR Intensives may be a good fit for individuals experiencing:

  • Ongoing effects of stressful or traumatic experiences

  • Anxiety or strong emotional reactions linked to past events

  • OCD, Attachment Issues, Grief related experiences

  • Feeling “stuck” despite previous therapy

  • A desire for focused, short-term therapeutic work

All clients are carefully screened to ensure this format is appropriate and supportive for them.

This is A Personalized and Supportive Approach.

EMDR Intensives are not about rushing healing—they are about creating intentional space for deeper work. Each intensive is customized, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based care. Follow-up support or referrals are discussed to help clients continue integrating their progress after the intensive is complete.

EMDR Intensives are not covered through insurance, as they are longer sessions that can last 2-6 hours. If you are interested in EMDR Intensives with Dominique, please send her an email through the contact form on the ‘Contact Form’ page.
