Couples Intensives and EMDR individual intensives

​

Clients chose intensives when they are ready for change not just coping. Intensive therapeutic work when a weekly or bi-weekly commitment for professional or personal reasons does not fit.

 

Please note this is not one size fits all

EMDR & Couples Therapy Intensives

 

Focused, Deep, Lasting Change — Without Months of Waiting

 

You may have been thinking about change for a long time.

 

Perhaps you’ve tried to talk things through, made sense of patterns, even had therapy before… yet something still feels stuck.

 

• The same arguments repeat

• The same emotional reactions take over

• The past continues to shape the present

• You understand things logically, but nothing truly shifts

 

If that feels familiar, an intensive offers a different way forward.

​

Why Choose an Intensive?

 

Traditional therapy can be powerful, but working week-to-week often means:

 

• Losing momentum between sessions

• Staying at the level of insight rather than change

• Avoiding the deeper work because time feels limited

 

An intensive creates a protected, focused space to work at depth.

 

Instead of dipping in and out, we stay with the work long enough for something meaningful to shift.

​

What Is an Intensive?

 

An intensive is a carefully structured therapeutic experience, tailored to you as an individual or as a couple.

 

It combines:

 

• EMDR therapy to process trauma and emotional blocks

• Systemic psychotherapy to understand patterns and context

• Gottman-informed couples work to repair communication and rebuild connection

​

This allows us to work both with what has happened and how it is playing out now.

​

Who This Is For

 

Intensives are particularly helpful if:

 

• You feel stuck despite insight or previous therapy

• You want to work through trauma more efficiently

• Your relationship is at a turning point

• You are recovering from affairs, betrayal, or loss of trust

• Patterns keep repeating and feel difficult to change

• You want meaningful progress without long delays

 

• For Individuals

 

You may be:

 

• Carrying the impact of past experiences or trauma

• Feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally shut down

• Tired of coping and ready for deeper change

 

EMDR intensives allow us to process what is unresolved and create space for something different.

​

For Couples

 

You may be:

 

• Caught in the same arguments with no resolution

• Navigating betrayal, secrecy, or disconnection

• Unsure whether to stay together or separate

 

Couples intensives offer a structured space to:

 

• Understand your pattern as a couple

• Improve communication and emotional safety

• Begin repair where trust has been damaged

• Address infidelity trauma

​

The Difference

 

This is not simply “more therapy.”

 

It is a focused, high-impact piece of work that allows:

 

• Deeper emotional processing

• Faster movement through stuck points

• Real shifts in how you feel and relate

​

Investment

 

Intensives are a premium service, reflecting the depth, preparation, and focused time offered.

 

Packages are tailored but typically include:

 

• Preparation and assessment

• Half-day or full-day intensive sessions

• Integration and follow-up

 

Full details are discussed following consultation to ensure the approach is right for you.

 

Is This Right for You?

 

Intensive therapy is most effective when:

 

• You are ready to engage with the process

• You can prioritise the time and space needed

• You are open to both support and challenge

 

If you are unsure, we can explore this together in an initial conversation.

​
