You're already doing so much as a Mom.

 

You don’t need more on your to-do list.

You need the right kind of support.

 

Intensives may be the support that you need
 

You may be the mom who is:

  • Successful at work but overwhelmed at home

  • Constantly feel like you have to be “on,” even when you’re exhausted

  • Stuck in anxiety, people-pleasing, shutdown, guilt, or resentment

  • trying to hold together parenting, work, home, family & friend relationships, and the invisible mental load that comes with maintaining all of those roles.

  • desire change, but feel too burnt out to actually have the bandwidth to make change

  • aware of your patterns, but still unable to sustainably integrate them in real life

  • frustrated that traditional weekly therapy can feel too slow, too fragmented, or too hard to maintain consistently

​

You are likely carrying too much for too long without enough space to process it deeply.

You're tired of feeling emotionally unstable, having sleepless nights, being sick, being resentful, and feeling triggered all of the time.

You want so badly to have stability but you don't think that it's possible.

You wonder what's wrong with you and why you can't be happy. 
 

For many mothers, who know all too well how to multi-task, I am here to tell you that healing cannot happen in that same rhythm. It does not happen in tiny, rushed fragments.

 

It happens when there is enough space, enough support, and enough structure to actually do the work beyond what a standard 50-minute session allows.

EMDR Intensives for Busy, Overwhelmed Moms

A more focused, spacious approach to healing
 

My intensive model is designed for moms who want meaningful therapeutic progress without committing to the endless cycle of weekly sessions that can feel hard to sustain.
 

Using a trauma-informed approach that includes EMDR, body work, IFS parts work, nervous system regulation, mindfulness, and lifestyle choices, you get integrative support.

 

We create a deeper container for healing - one that honors both your emotional needs and the realities of motherhood.

​

You can choose the level of support that best fits your life right now:

  • Option A: One intensive plus monthly resets for ongoing integration and support

  • Option B: Quarterly intensives with light-touch support in between

​​

Both options are designed to help you make real progress while keeping your care structured, intentional, and manageable.


For many moms who are interested in an Intensive, they may have been engaged in traditional talk therapy, or they may be feeling stuck by the lack of progress with their issues.

Intensives are time-efficient and transformational, ideal for busy women who want deep healing without weekly appointments forever.

This work is especially supportive for moms navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, perfectionism, emotional overwhelm, life transitions, identity shifts, and the pressure of keeping on top of things and holding it all together.

​

​

This work may be a strong fit for you if:

  • You are a high-functioning mom who feels emotionally overwhelmed beneath the surface

  • You are tired of white-knuckling your way through life

  • You want more than coping — you want actual healing and integration

  • You need support that works with the rhythms of your life.

  • You are open to a deeper, more focused therapeutic process

  • You value high-touch, personalized care

What does an EMDR Intensive look like?

EMDR Intensives usually involves 4-6 hour (half-day) or 8-10 hour (full- day) long sessions.*

They can be conducted on back to back days or several times during the same week.

Rather than having to work on a weekly basis for an extended period of time, you can often work through many issues (depending on how it is impacting you) intensively and move forward with your life more quickly. 

These premium, in-depth services are called an intensive for a reason and they are not appropriate for everyone.

Intensives are recommended to be used in conjunction with your weekly therapy with me or another therapist.

If you currently have a therapist, please feel free to discuss this option with them and I am happy to discuss collaborative work.
 

Your intensive may focus on one or more of the following:

  • Anxiety and chronic overwhelm

  • Trauma and unresolved past experiences

  • Burnout and nervous system exhaustion

  • Perfectionism and people-pleasing

  • Mom Rage

  • Motherhood identity shifts

  • Guilt, resentment, or self-worth struggles

  • Stress related to parenting, relationships, or work-life imbalance
     

Each intensive is personalized. We will determine together what makes the most sense based on your needs, goals, and readiness.


If you are interested in exploring the idea of an Intensive, please contact me to schedule an intake session and I can help you decide if an Intensive is right for you. You can also learn more here and here.

After an Intensive experience, you can choose to return to the care of your weekly therapist, to continue processing your insights and/or other issues.  


If you would like to work with me directly for longer term 1-1 therapy, that is also an option. See your options here

If you are an existing client of mine, we can explore the use Intensives to address specific issues in addition to overall functioning.

*Intensives can be broken up and conducted multiple days throughout the week, the month or throughout the year.
