EMDR
Intensives
Flexibility in how you receive therapeutic support is important, and the traditional model of weekly psychotherapy is shifting to meet your needs. Traditional talk therapy is a long-term support system to help you work through life challenges over time. But two challenges may be coming up for you:
1) Your schedule is demanding and unpredictable, making a weekly therapy appointment feel overwhelming.
2) You feel like you need a lot of effective help quickly. The idea of spending months in talk therapy may be making it feel impossible to ever feel better.
What does an EMDR Intensive Include:
-
Pre-consultation interview to assess for candidacy, as well as target unpleasant beliefs, body sensations, emotions, or images from which you are seeking relief.
-
Personalized treatment plan and workbook, which allows you to work on your treatment goals before, during, and after our intensive sessions.
-
A customized treatment program with targeted treatment goals. Therapy with Sally-Anne is done either in person or virtually, often for 3-9 sessions (1.5 to 2 hours each session). An example of an intensive could be 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in afternoon for 3-5 days in a row.
-
Post-treatment interview to assess and support your adaptation to positive changes from treatment.
Sally-Anne is an EMDR Certified Therapist. After completing EMDR level 1 and 2, her work has been evaluated by professionals in the industry and she has awarded with this credential by EMDRIA.

Ongoing intensive therapy is available if you are wanting long-term support toward several treatment goals.
