A therapy intensive is a condensed, highly focused therapeutic experience designed to support deep healing in a shorter period of time. Intensives are offered in 3- or 6-hour formats and provide the space to slow down, listen inward, and address what’s been weighing on you—without stretching the work out over months.

Rather than weekly sessions that skim the surface, intensives offer a contained and intentional experience that allows for deeper processing, nervous system regulation, and meaningful insight.

This work is trauma-informed, thoughtfully paced, and grounded in safety and collaboration.

Therapy Intensives are perfect for people that are ready for relief now. If you’re ready to see things change in your life and your relationships but you don’t want to wait for that to happen next year – a Therapy Intensive may be right for you. If you have a specific topic, trauma, or stressor that you want support with – this can be the focus of your Therapy Intensive. The dedicated time will be customized specifically to you and your goals.

A Therapy Intensive is an accelerated form of therapy designed to help clients go deeper and get results faster. Instead of attending therapy one hour per week for a year, why not carve out a weekend or a week for Therapy Intensives? It’s a cutting-edge approach to help people feel better faster. No need for a weekly therapy appointment.

In fact, many people think of Therapy Intensives like a retreat. For that day, weekend, or week you can unplug, take time off work, get a babysitter, or even stay in a hotel. This time is completely dedicated to you so you can focus on healing, reflecting, and reconnecting.

Sessions are held outdoors, weather permitting, in a quiet and private natural setting. Your confidentiality is fully respected—no one else will be present during your intensive aside from you and your therapist. If the weather does not allow for outdoor work, an appropriate alternative will be discussed in advance.

Therapy Intensives are more effective and efficient than normal 50 minute to an hour long therapy session. Typically in a normal session, there are at least 5-10 minutes of “check-in” at the start of the session and usually, 5-10 minutes spent on “closing up” or “checking out” at the end of a session – Leaving only 30-40 minutes for deep therapeutic work. Therapy Intensives are different. A 3-hour Therapy Intensive allows for 2.5 hours of depth work. That’s the equivalent of five 50-minute sessions or more than a month of therapy – in a single day!

Great question! This depends on your goals for the Therapy Intensive. Some goals can be reached in a 1 Day Intensive (3 hours), but other goals are more complex and may require a 3 Day Intensive. I can help you determine the number of days that would work best for your therapy goals.

Absolutely! Therapy Intensives work very well as an adjunct therapy. I would ask that you sign a Release of Information so that your current therapist and I can collaborate/coordinate to best serve you.
