Signature EMDR Intensives in Colorado
You're stuck and you've tried a lot to fix it...
you know you need something different
You've been trudging through life and surviving for a while, but things are starting to suffer. Whether it's your health, your energy, your relationships, your family, your work, or your faith, you know something has to change and it has to happen soon.
Intensive therapy allows you to a get to a place where you can enjoy life instead of just getting by, in days instead of months or years, without getting stuck in a process that feels like it takes forever to move forward.
What is a Signature EMDR Intensive?
Most therapists say there's no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy. Your journey through therapy will be just as unique as your personality, experiences, needs, and goals. And yet, most therapy follows a one-size-fits-all approach... hour long session blocks attended once a week to make gradual progress over months or years. It can leave you feeling stuck in your pain or at a plateau with your progress.
Intensive therapy is totally different.
Instead of going to therapy once a week over time, you set aside longer chunks of time less frequently - either monthly or over consecutive days. Intensive therapy is a way to accelerate the healing process and get to a place of deeper resolution more quickly. In a 3-hour intensive session you can experience the benefits and results of a lot of therapy in a greatly reduced period of time. In a 3 day intensive you can accomplish what may take months or years in traditional therapy.
Intensive Therapy Can Help if You Want to:
Greatly reduce time spent in therapy and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule
Avoid feeling overwhelmed by emotion in the healing process
Eliminate stressful time in between sessions feeling like things were left unfinished
Resolve single incident trauma quickly without the need for a lot of appointments
Make therapy more cost effective in the long runSkip long wait times to start with a new therapist when you need help now
Overcome feeling stuck in ongoing weekly therapy
Try something different when you've tried a lot and nothing has worked as you hoped
Experience a customized and personalized healing retreat that accelerates your progress
One half day intensive is equivalent to months of therapy.
Signature Intensives are Results Driven, Not Time Driven
What makes intensives so powerful is that we're able to set a goal we can work towards meeting within the time we've allotted, instead of going to therapy weekly for an unspecified period of time until you accomplish a goal.
We each put our unique signature on the process.
Intenisves are highly customized and personalized to your needs and goals. We design an experience around what will work for your personality, preferences, and problems to be addressed.
We use EMDR as a foundation to build on because it is so effective to get results effectively and efficiently, but I also draw on my 25 years of experience with other insight oriented and evidence based approaches that promote deep inner healing, keep us from getting stuck in the process, and free you up to move forward in life without being held back by distressing symptoms or pain from the past.
Signature EMDR Intensives are a Powerful Way to Address:
Intensive therapy is results driven, not time driven.

How Does an Intensive Work?
5 Simple Steps From Start to Finish
Step 1: Free Consultation
The first step is a free phone consultation so that I can get an overview of the issues you're seeking to address and answer any questions you have. After our consult I'll be able to suggest an Intensive plan that I think will best meet your needs. Intensives are highly customized and personalized just for you. The intensive plan we create will depend on your individual needs, preferences, and problems to be addressed.
Step 2: Personalized Workbook
Once your intensive is scheduled, you'll receive a personalized workbook that includes assessments, resources, and preparation to get the most out of your intensive. After you filli n the workbook, I’ll review it before we meet for our pre-intensive session so that we both go into it with clarity about how to customize your experience to get you to the place of healing you desire. Completing the workbook can be a therapeutic experience in itself, opening your eyes to new insights or old patterns maybe not recognized before, and strengthening your ability to reflect with curiosity instead of pain.
Step 3: Pre-Intensive Preparation Session
After you've completed and I've reviewed your workbook, we’ll meet for an extended pre-intensive session (90 or 120 minutes) to put our heads together and create a customized plan to meet your goals. We'll take time to tackle any fears or concerns you have about your intensive session and prepare you with skills and resources for coping that will help ease any overwhelm in the process. The pre-intensive gives you the tools needed to head into the intensive processing sessions feeling prepared, equipped, and confident that you can experience deep healing and change.
Step 4: Intensive Therapy Sessions
We'll meet for 3 hours at a time over a period of 1, 2, or 3 days, either in person at my office in Colorado Springs, or virtually so that you can be in the comfort of your home. This is where deep healing happens as we process through the memories or triggers we identified in the pre-intensive session. People often walk away from their intensive sessions not just feeling better, but also with a deep sense of meaning and purpose for how to use what they’ve been through moving forward.
Step 5: Post-Intensive Follow-Up Session
One to two weeks after your intensive, we'll meet for an extended session (90 or 120 minutes) to debrief the experience, process any remaining future concerns, and plan how to incorporate and maintain positive changes in your life as you move forward. The post-intensive helps to cement the change you experienced in your intensive over the long term for your future.
Intensives are highly customized & personalized for your specific preferences, needs, and goals.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT EMDR INTENSIVES
On a Personal Note
If you want your life back but you’re not sure how to get it, you have a vision for your future but you just feel so stuck and unable to get there, you’re willing to put in the work but you just don’t know what to do...
I hope you'll consider the life changing power of an EMDR Intensive.
I've been a therapist for more than 20 years and have become well versed in a variety of approaches, including psychoanalytic psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Internal Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, and Interpersonal Neurobiology. While I’ve seen success with other therapeutic approaches, I’ve consistently found that clients go farther and deeper, faster, with EMDR, and get to a point of healing that far surpasses what can be accomplished in traditional therapy. EMDR can make years of therapy achievable in just months, and an EMDR Intensive can exponentially increase progress while reducing time spent in therapy.
Seeing the profound and deep lasting change that clients experience in extended and intensive EMDR sessions has made me passionate about working this way, and I would love the opportunity to partner with you in this process so that you can live the life you’re called to, free from what holds you back.
Get back to enjoying your life, in days instead of months or years...
without getting stuck in the process, overwhelmed by emotion, or having to relive hard things that have happened.
