A modern therapy approach that breaks the mold of traditional weekly sessions and truly transforms your life.
Did you know that the weekly 53 minute session model was developed by insurance companies, NOT therapists? While it works well for those that prefer regular check-ins or find processing in small bits most manageable, it holds back others who are really ready to dive deep and are seeking long-lasting change without a long-term relationship with a therapist.
More and more clients and therapists are turning toward Therapy Intensives - a brief, highly focused approach to treatment. Therapy Intensives are NOT just longer sessions. They are designed, delivered, and experienced very differently than the traditional 53 minutes session. Consider how accelerated your progress could be if you didn't have to stop at the 53 minute mark? When we work in extended blocks, we are able to engage in really collaborative and deep work so that you can return to daily life with a sense of personal transformation.
Therapy intensives are NOT just longer sessions. They are very specific, targeted therapeutic experiences that allow for a deeper dive into a topic or goal over a condensed period of time (e.g., understanding anxiety and improving your ability to cope or breaking through the next level in trauma processing). They can be done in conjunction with regular therapy (with or without me) or in lieu of weekly sessions, as a sort of Disney Fast Pass for therapy. It is highly customized for you and your nervous system, so that while more intensive that does not mean more overwhelming.

Weekly or Biweekly Individual sessions allow for therapeutic relationship building, a slower build, frequent breaks for processing and practicing between sessions. They work well for those who desire a longer-term therapeutic relationship and wish to explore many different topic areas. With Intensives, we are not getting into all the things and there is no need for catching up. We focus intensively on one or two target areas at a time, allowing us to do deeper and for the work to be more transformative in a shorter period of time. Weekly sessions become very relational over time and often can fall into more time being spent on small-talk or update conversations, which do have value but are not for everyone and do not serve many clients in achieving their goals. Intensives are for clients who are really ready and motivated to go deep, want to minimize the small talk, and are looking for more accelerated change in a specific area.
Insurance companies do not currently have any service codes for this format that would allow billing to any insurance plans, regardless of in-network or out-of-network status. These services are therapist designed, with the highest level of client care in mind, and are available as Private Pay services only.
