EMDR Intensives

Why choose an intensive?
Sometimes weekly therapy isn’t enough. EMDR intensives offer extended sessions over a shorter period of time, allowing you to process more deeply and move forward more quickly. This focused approach helps reduce the impact of trauma, anxiety, grief, and other painful experiences, without the long wait between traditional sessions.

Who are intensives for?
EMDR intensives may be a good fit if you:

  • Feel stuck in regular talk therapy.
  • Want focused help with specific memories or patterns.
  • Prefer to make progress in days or weeks instead of months.
  • Need concentrated support during a transition, loss, or life stressor.

What to expect:
Intensives are tailored to your needs and may include:

  • A pre-intensive consultation to set goals and ensure readiness.
  • Extended EMDR sessions (half-day, full-day, or multi-day options).
  • Built-in grounding and integration practices to help you feel stable.
  • Follow-up support after the intensive to maintain your progress.

Walk & Talk Therapy

Why choose Walk & Talk?
Therapy doesn’t always have to happen sitting in an office. Walk & Talk sessions take place outdoors, combining the benefits of movement, nature, and fresh air with the support of therapy. Many clients find it easier to open up while walking side by side, and the natural setting can help reduce stress, boost mood, and create space for new perspectives.

Who is it for?
Walk & Talk Therapy may be a great fit if you:

  • Feel more comfortable talking while moving rather than sitting face-to-face.
  • Want the added benefit of physical activity alongside emotional healing.
  • Enjoy being in nature and find it calming or grounding.
  • Are looking for a different, more holistic approach to therapy.

What to expect:

  • Sessions take place outdoors on accessible, safe walking routes.
  • The pace is always set by you — it’s about comfort, not exercise intensity.
  • We’ll combine traditional therapy techniques with the grounding effects of nature.
  • Confidentiality and your privacy are always respected.
