Therapy Intensives  

I offer all of the above services in an intensive format, a unique way of experiencing months’ worth of personal growth and therapeutic progress in a matter of days. 

Whether you are a couple that doesn’t want to wait weeks or months to feel stronger and more connected in your relationship, a busy parent and/or professional who doesn’t have time for a weekly session, or someone ready for transformation and relief from emotional pain, you can benefit from an intensive. I offer different intensive packages based on your unique goals and needs, ranging anywhere from a single half-day to nine hours of therapy over two full days. To learn more, including the unique benefits of intensives, detailed information about what an intensive is like, and pricing, please see my Intensives page. 

I offer intensives in several formats: 

  • EMDR intensives 

  • Couples & relationship issues 

  • Psychedelic-assisted therapy 

  • Equine therapy
