Personalized EMDR Intensive Therapy
Offered In Person in Agoura Hills, California office and Virtually
I LOVE providing EMDR Therapy for my clients. I have witnessed so much healing and growth using this treatment modality. However, the traditional 50-minutes-per-week therapy model doesn’t meet everyone’s needs when it comes to EMDR Therapy. Sometimes people need longer sessions, or need to work through things more quickly. That is why I am offering EMDR Intensive Therapy at Agoura Hills Counseling as an additional or alternative style of doing therapy for clients that really want to dive in and prioritize their healing.
Who is this for and what are the benefits?
- You have particular goals in mind for your therapy.
- You want to dedicate a focused period of time to work on your mental health and want it to be structured (similar to going on a retreat).
- You want change therapy rather than support therapy.
- You want to get BETTER, FASTER! Your symptoms are impairing your functioning, and you want your healing to come as soon as possible. An intensive program can foster more growth in a shorter period of time with more intensive sessions.
- Your treatment plan would be personalized based on your needs, your schedule, and your goals.
- You can travel from out of state to work with me for an intensive program if you are currently living out of state and would otherwise not be able to take advantage of my services due to licensing laws.
Research Related to EMDR Intensive Therapy

- 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.
