Brainspotting & EMDR Intensives
It looks like you have it together on the outside, but you feel stuck repeating patterns from childhood despite insight and effort.

A More Focused Way to Work Through What Feels Stuck
You’ve done therapy. You’ve gained insight. But some things haven’t shifted.
You’ve talked about your childhood in therapy, journaled about it, asked your favorite AI. All of it has helped you understand, make sense of things that you weren’t able to before.
But you still carry the effects of your childhood, of past pain. The internal heaviness and unease still haunt you.
And it is sooo frustrating because you know better. You know you are capable of moving beyond this. You are emotionally intelligent. And, yet, despite your best intentions certain patterns persist.
You still shut down when your partner tries to get close, or get angry when they don’t do what they should do.
You’ve read all the parenting books and done talk therapy but you still lose it with your kid when they are doing what kids do. Or you spiral in fear about their safety, their future, their happiness. None of it feels good. This is not the parent you want to be.
Others would be surprised that you struggle with self-doubt. You know why you do but it doesn’t change the internal narrative. You still replay conversations in your mind, second guess your choices, even what you know are the most inconsequential decisions.
You find yourself trying feeling overly responsible for others and trying to control despite knowing the serenity prayer backwards and forwards.
Those old negative thoughts and memories still pop up when you least expect.
There is an internal call to go deeper.
You need something different. Because old patterns aren’t rooted in your rational mind. They live more deeply in your brain and body.
You need to do more than just talk about it. And you need the structure to go deeper.
Intensives create space for deeper, more focused work.

The research supporting the effectiveness of intensives.
Intensive application of trauma-focused therapy seems to be well tolerated in patients with PTSD, enabling faster symptom reduction with similar, or even better, results, while reducing the risk that patients drop out prematurely. Learn more here and here.
Intensive EMDR treatment is feasible and is indicative of reliable improvement in PTSD symptoms in a very short time frame. Learn more here.
An intensive program using EMDR therapy is a potentially safe and effective treatment alternative for complex PTSD. Learn more here.
The economy is compelling: even compared to other trauma therapy, the intensive format may decrease treatment time, because of time not spent on a) checking in at the beginning of each session, b) addressing current crises and concerns, c) focusing on stabilizing and coping skills that the client won’t need after trauma healing, or d) assisting the client in regaining composure at the end of the session.
