EMDR Healing Intensives For Lasting Transformation

Immerse yourself in deep, integrative work designed to uncover what’s hidden and unlock what’s next.

Healing Intensives are a concentrated, immersive approach to EMDR therapy, somatic practices, ketamine-assisted healing, and spiritual insight. They provide the space and structure to process trauma, release stuck patterns, and integrate transformative insights in a way that traditional weekly therapy cannot.

Each intensive is personalized to your needs and may include:

  • EMDR therapy for trauma, anxiety, and relational healing

  • Somatic practices to support body awareness and nervous system regulation

  • Ketamine-Assisted Therapy (for appropriate candidates)

  • Integration practices to consolidate insights and new patterns
