The Neuroscience Behind Why Intensives Work
Intensives offer a transformative opportunity to rewire your brain’s response to stress, trauma, and emotional triggers. Backed by neuroscience, our integrative approach blends top-down modalities like Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), which help shift thought patterns, with bottom-up somatic therapies, such as Somatic Experiencing and Trauma-Sensitive Yoga, which engage the body to release stored trauma and calm the nervous system. This comprehensive method allows for deep emotional regulation, coherence, and repair from the inside out.
When we’ve experienced trauma or chronic stress, our nervous system often gets stuck in fight-or-flight mode, even when the original threat has long passed. Somatic therapy approaches help the body release these stored physiological responses, allowing for a fuller emotional recovery and relief from patterns of constriction, both in the body and in behavior. Intensives give clients the space to break through deeply ingrained patterns and achieve results that can sometimes take months or even years in weekly therapy.
Who Benefits From an Intensive?
If you feel like your weekly therapy isn’t yielding the results you need or that your progress has plateaued, you’re not alone. Intensives provide an opportunity to dive deep into specific issues in a concentrated amount of time. You may benefit from an intensive if you’re dealing with:
Unresolved trauma (PTSD, childhood abuse, sexual trauma)
Anxiety or depression that isn't responding to traditional methods
Relationship conflict (infidelity, betrayal, trust issues, communication breakdowns)
Addiction recovery, including alcohol, drugs, or behavioral addictions
Grief or loss that feels overwhelming
Codependency or struggles with self-worth
Our intensives are ideal for those looking for rapid results and breakthroughs in their emotional and mental health.

What to Expect in an Intensive
Our intensives are designed to provide the kind of focused, immersive care that isn’t possible in traditional weekly sessions. Typically ranging from two days to a week, the intensive will start with a comprehensive assessment of your needs, followed by a curated mix of modalities, including:
EMDR to process trauma (We also offer EMDR intensives. )
Somatic Therapy to release stored stress in the body
Mindfulness and Meditation Practices to promote calm and emotional regulation
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to shift negative thought patterns
Attachment-based therapy to heal relational wounds
During the intensive, you'll also receive integration tools such as journaling exercises, guided meditations, and practical homework assignments to continue your healing journey after the intensive is complete.
