Have you tried countless methods to heal your past wounds, but still feel stuck, exhausted, and uncertain about where to go next?
Maybe you’ve been through weekly therapy and seen some progress, but you still find yourself triggered by past trauma or responding with old, unhelpful patterns. Maybe you've tried weekly therapy but felt like you only scratched the surface of the healing you know is possible. Maybe there’s a major life event—like having a baby, getting married, or starting a new job—and you need real change now, not in six months. Or perhaps you’ve recently been diagnosed with cancer and you want to heal your past trauma quickly to support your whole being. Whatever the case, if you're ready to go deeper and break through the barriers that still hold you back, you’re not alone—and this is the opportunity for accelerated transformative change.
Intensive Retreats are the answer.​
It may feel impossible now, but you can get to the root of your issues. You can heal. You can improve the quality of your life. And I can help you get there.
Intensives work fast
Intensive Immersive Therapy allows you to dive deeper into your healing process and see results more quickly. The work is concentrated into longer, uninterrupted sessions. Unlike weekly one-hour sessions, which can break up the momentum; intensives give you the opportunity to focus fully on your progress, without distractions.
How often have you felt you were just starting to reach the heart of an issue when the session ended? Have you ever felt like the time settling into a session and catching up prevented you from going deeper?
​
Intensive retreats are concentrated, focused and immersive.
​
​The progress you make, could otherwise take up to six months in traditional therapy making intensives a faster, more efficient way to achieve meaningful progress.

How does it work?
Intake
​
Prior to the Intensive, we meet for an Intake to identify goals, and make a detailed plan to reach your desired outcome. We will determine together the intensive option that would best meet your needs. We will also look at what your life looks like now: your support system, stressors, ways you cope, and places that you want relief, growth, or to take a big step forward. I may suggest some exercises such as daily meditation and journaling as you prepare for your intensive retreat.
This is an essential and required step in the process.
The Intensive​
​
Put simply, during the Intensive we do 2 things: 1) Make the painful stuff in your life hurt less and 2) Help the good stuff feel even better.
​
Your Intensive is tailored to your unique needs. Depending on where you are in your journey, we may spend time on your earliest relationships in life (i.e. attachment), target a specific trauma or help you through a crisis. For others, the focus is more future oriented. This process is very personal and customized to you.
I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, Internal Family Systems(IFS), Trauma Resilience Model (TRM), Polyvagal Theory, Trauma Sensitive Yoga, and Reflective Meditation.
​
Post-Intensive Interview
​
This 50-minute session allows us the chance to review your progress and identify and address any continued challenges. It’s also a time to reflect on the elements that were most meaningful to you and how you want to infuse that into your life moving forward. I emphasize sharing insights with the important people in your life, so they can partner with you and celebrate your progress!
