EMDR + IFS

Intensives & Extended Sessions

Deeper Healing, Faster Pace.

If you've been dealing with and trying to heal from your trauma for a long time, you already know how redundant weekly therapy can become.

The trauma-dumping, the everyday chaos, the crises and little fires that arise and consume a whole month's worth of sessions three times a year...

All while you avoid the burning building behind you.

Not because you want to, but…

Because Weekly Therapy Just Isn’t It.

Weekly therapy just does not provide the proper framework for deep, targeted trauma work.

Intensives, which are planned sessions of 3-5 hours, do provide the space for deep, targeted trauma work.

If you're truly ready...We can do this. We can spend 3 days together and do 6 months' worth of therapy.

What is an EMDR+IFS Intensive?

Should You Consider an EMDR+IFS Intensive?

Intensives are not simply ‘longer’ therapy sessions. Intensives are planned weeks in advance and include extensive preparation from both the client and the therapist.

Intensives are focused, intentionally outlined sessions. Intensives allow the opportunity to progress through your symptoms in a more succinct and focused way without the interruption of a 50-minute session.

An intensive format may decrease overall treatment time because of time not spent on:

  • checking in at the beginning of each session

  • addressing current crises and concerns

  • focusing on stabilizing and coping skills that the client won’t need after healing

  • assisting the client in regaining composure at the end of the session.

Existing Clients.

You’ve been seeing Jessica or another EMDR or IFS Therapist and want to jump-start or reboot your trauma reprocessing.

Long-Time Therapy Go-er.

You’ve been in therapy for a long time already. You’ve made tons of progress, but realize something or several things have been missed.

You aren’t usually in Michigan.

I can only work with you if your feet are in Michigan. If you travel in for 2-3 days, we can do 9-12 hours of intensive trauma reprocessing.

Get Unstuck.

You’ve been in weekly therapy and find yourself circling around the same feeling, pattern or behavior without new clarity, insight or resolution.

Instead of 12 weekly, hour-long sessions, we’ll do 12 hours of therapy in 3 days. You’ll do in 3 days more than you would in 12 weeks.
