EMDR Intensive Program
Heal Deeper. Heal Faster.
Trauma doesn’t have to take years to work through. Our EMDR Intensive Programs condense months of traditional therapy into just a few focused days—helping you process, reframe, and release the weight of the past so you can start feeling lighter, calmer, and more in control.
What Are EMDR Intensives?
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is one of the most effective trauma therapies available. But instead of the standard weekly model, EMDR Intensives take the work deeper, faster.
By immersing in concentrated sessions over a shorter timeframe, we create the space to reprocess traumatic memories more effectively—reducing their emotional charge and helping your nervous system finally settle.
Over the course of the program, we’ll focus intensively on processing one or two key issues.
Clients often notice relief from:
-
Nightmares and flashbacks
-
Intrusive thoughts and hypervigilance
-
Anxiety, panic, and overwhelm
-
Guilt, shame, or emotional numbness
-
Trauma-related physical symptoms like migraines or gut issues
For many, symptoms ease dramatically. For some, they resolve altogether.
EMDR Intensive vs. Traditional EMDR
Traditional EMDR
-
Weekly or fortnightly sessions
-
Helpful for ongoing support
-
Progress can feel slow or stop-start
EMDR Intensives
-
Multiple sessions packed into a few days or weeks
-
Keeps momentum through all 8 phases of EMDR
-
Less “catching up,” more focused reprocessing
-
Faster relief from trauma-related symptoms
If weekly therapy feels too drawn out—or doesn’t fit your lifestyle—an intensive may be the better path.
Why Choose an EMDR Intensive?
Faster Results
Condensed sessions mean you may notice shifts in your mental and emotional health much sooner than with traditional therapy.
Deeper, Focused Work
Instead of dipping in and out week after week, intensives give you the space to really stay with your healing process.
Support for Neurodivergent Brains
Standard 50-minute sessions can feel restrictive. Intensives give you room to explore at your own pace without constantly being cut off by the clock.
Fits Into Busy Lives
Perfect if you juggle family, work, or travel—or simply want relief without months of waiting.
What to Expect?
Our EMDR Intensive Programs runs over 1–2 weeks and are designed to target one or two specific issues in a concentrated way. Our program includes:
-
1 x 50-minute online assessment session before your intensive
-
The equivalent of 15 x 50 minutes, 10 x 50-minute or 5 x 50 minute EMDR sessions condensed into 2 days or 1 day
-
3 x 90-minute, 2 x 90-minute or 1 x 90 minute Breathwork Therapy sessions
-
3 x 45-minute, 2 x 45-minute or 1x 45-minute Somatic Movement Therapy sessions
-
An intensive-specific workbook to guide you during and after the program
This unique blend of EMDR plus body-based therapies supports not just the processing of trauma, but also the integration, embodiment, and reflection needed for lasting change.
Intensives aren’t designed to “fix everything at once”—but they do create meaningful progress on targeted issues and lay a strong foundation for ongoing healing.
Is EMDR Just for PTSD?
No. While EMDR is best known for treating post-traumatic stress, it’s equally effective for:
-
Anxiety and panic
-
Phobias
-
Depression
-
Traumatic grief and loss
-
Addictions
-
Chronic pain
-
Emotional distress from childhood or adult experiences
If unprocessed memories are keeping you stuck, EMDR can help you move towards you desired life.
The Research
EMDR therapy is one of the most researched trauma treatments worldwide. And intensives aren’t just convenient—they’re effective.
A 2020 European study found that EMDR delivered in an intensive format reduced PTSD symptoms by up to 74%. More and more, this approach is becoming the gold standard in trauma recovery.
