Bring EMDR Intensives Into Your Practice With Confidence
Clinical and practical consultation for therapists developing or refining their approach to EMDR Therapy Intensives.
A Practical Approach to EMDR Intensive Consultation
More Than a Longer EMDR Session
EMDR Therapy Intensives offer a different way of structuring treatment, but providing an intensive involves much more than extending the length of an EMDR session.
Client selection and readiness, case conceptualization, preparation, target planning, pacing, extended reprocessing, closure, integration, and follow-up all require thoughtful consideration within an intensive format. Therapists must also navigate informed consent, documentation, scheduling, policies, fees, and the practical realities of integrating intensives into their practice.
I am passionate about helping EMDR therapists think through these pieces intentionally so that their intensive model is not only effective, but clinically sound, ethical, and sustainable.
Consultation gives us the opportunity to look beyond simply how to offer an intensive and consider how to provide intensive EMDR in a way that reflects your clinical judgment, your clients' needs, and the way you want to practice.
Consultation Grounded in Real-World Intensive Practice
My clinical practice is dedicated exclusively to EMDR Therapy Intensives. As an EMDR Certified Therapist and EMDRIA Approved Consultant, I bring both advanced EMDR training and extensive direct experience providing intensive treatment to my consultation work.
My understanding of intensives has been shaped not only by training, but by years of actually doing this work: assessing whether clients are appropriate for intensive treatment, developing individualized treatment plans, preparing clients for extended reprocessing, navigating unexpected clinical material, working with complex presentations, and continually refining the structures that support intensive treatment.
I have also experienced firsthand what it takes to build a practice around this model, from developing workflows and policies to determining scheduling, fees, documentation, and the boundaries necessary to make intensive work sustainable.
That means our consultation can move between the clinical and practical realities of providing intensives, rather than treating them as separate conversations.
What We Can Explore in Consultation
Your consultation can be shaped around where you are in developing or providing EMDR Therapy Intensives and the questions you are currently navigating.
Areas we may explore include:
- Determining client appropriateness and readiness for intensive treatment
- Assessment, preparation, and resourcing for intensive work
- Case conceptualization and target planning
- Structuring 90-minute, 3-hour, and multi-day intensives
- Pacing and clinical decision-making during extended reprocessing
- Working with complex trauma, attachment wounds, protective parts, and nervous system responses
- Navigating blocks, dissociation, dysregulation, or unexpected clinical material
- Closure, integration, and post-intensive follow-up
- Informed consent, documentation, boundaries, and ethical considerations
- Scheduling, fees, cancellation policies, and other practice considerations
- Developing workflows and systems that support intensive treatment
- Introducing EMDR Intensives into an existing practice
- Refining or expanding an established intensive model
- Troubleshooting challenges as they arise in your clinical work
Consultation does not need to follow a predetermined curriculum. We can focus on the questions, cases, decisions, or aspects of your intensive model that are most relevant to you.
Consultation Offerings
Individual EMDR Intensives Consultation
Individual consultation provides dedicated time to focus on your specific clinical work, intensive model, or practice needs.
You may bring a particular case or clinical question, work through how to structure an upcoming intensive, explore challenges you have encountered during extended reprocessing, or step back and look more broadly at how you are developing and implementing your intensive services.
Individual consultation can also be helpful if you are still considering EMDR Intensives and want support thinking through how this model could fit within your clinical practice.
60-Minute Consultation | $250
EMDR Intensives Group Consultation
Group consultation offers an opportunity to deepen your understanding of EMDR Therapy Intensives while learning alongside other EMDR clinicians who are developing or providing intensive treatment.
Groups are intentionally kept small to allow meaningful time for case consultation, questions, clinical discussion, and exploration of the practical considerations involved in intensive work.
Rather than following a rigid curriculum, group consultation is responsive to the needs of the clinicians participating. The group also provides an opportunity to learn from the experiences and questions of other clinicians, including situations you may not yet have encountered within your own practice.

Supporting Your Work with EMDR Therapy Intensives
Is EMDR Intensives Consultation Right for You?
You do not need to already have an established intensive practice to benefit from consultation.
Consultation may be a good fit if you:
- Are interested in offering EMDR Therapy Intensives but are unsure where to begin
- Have strong EMDR skills but want support adapting your work to an intensive format
- Are beginning to provide intensives and want guidance as you develop your model
- Want to strengthen your assessment, preparation, case conceptualization, or treatment planning for intensive work
- Are encountering clinical challenges within your current intensives
- Want to think through the ethical or practical considerations involved in providing intensives
- Already have an established intensive practice and want to refine how you work
- Want consultation from someone who regularly provides EMDR Therapy Intensives in clinical practice
Wherever you are in the process, consultation can meet you there.
Why I Believe in EMDR Therapy Intensives
I did not simply add EMDR Intensives as another service within my practice. Over time, intensive work became the way I wanted to practice.
Providing EMDR in an intensive format allows for time that is often difficult to create within a traditional weekly therapy hour. There is more space for preparation, deeper case conceptualization, sustained reprocessing, thoughtful closure, and integration without repeatedly needing to stop because the session clock has run out.
But I have also learned that the value of an intensive is not simply having more time.
The quality of intensive work depends on what we do with that time.
It requires thoughtful assessment, intentional preparation, strong case conceptualization, flexibility, and the clinical judgment to know when to continue, when to slow down, and when the treatment plan needs to change. It also requires structures outside of the therapy room that protect both the client and the clinician.
Building my practice around EMDR Therapy Intensives has allowed me to continually study, apply, evaluate, and refine this way of working. It has also made me passionate about helping other EMDR therapists develop intensive practices that are clinically thoughtful rather than simply replicating someone else's model.
My goal in consultation is not to teach you one “right” way to provide an intensive. It is to help you understand the considerations involved, strengthen your clinical decision-making, and develop an approach that is responsible, intentional, and genuinely fits the way you practice.
