Intensives and Reset Days are extended private pay sessions designed for focused progress in a shorter window. They are a good fit when you feel stuck, want deeper work than a weekly session can hold, or need a clear reset around a specific issue.

These sessions offer a concentrated space to pause, reflect, process, and move forward with more clarity. Depending on your needs, intensives may include EMDR and ART-informed approaches, nervous system regulation, attachment-focused work, and practical tools to support meaningful change.

This type of work may be helpful for clients who feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or ready to address something that needs more time and attention than a traditional session allows. Intensives can support clients through anxiety, difficult memories, relationship patterns, parenting stress, life transitions, identity shifts, body image concerns, or moments when they need emotional grounding and direction.

Because of the format and structure, intensives and reset days are private pay only and are not billed to insurance. If you are looking for insurance-compatible treatment, ongoing therapy sessions may be the best fit.

Intensive Tracks

Anxiety and Overthinking Reset:
A focused intensive for clients who feel stuck in worry, racing thoughts, overthinking, perfectionism, or constant mental replay. This track offers space to understand anxiety patterns, calm the nervous system, and build practical tools for more clarity and steadiness.

Trauma and Difficult Memories:
A supportive track for clients carrying painful memories, emotional triggers, or experiences that still feel unresolved. This intensive may include trauma-informed processing, nervous system regulation, and tools to support a greater sense of safety and grounding.

Relationship and Attachment Patterns:
A focused track for clients who want to better understand relationship patterns, attachment wounds, communication struggles, emotional disconnection, or fear of rejection and abandonment. This work supports healthier connection, boundaries, and self-awareness.

Parent Strategy Intensive for Anxious ADHD Kids and Teens:
A structured intensive for parents looking for support with anxious or ADHD kids and teens. This track focuses on understanding patterns at home, building practical strategies, improving communication, and helping parents respond with more confidence and clarity.

Midlife and Menopause Body Image Reset:
This specialized track supports clients navigating body changes, weight stress, body image concerns, food noise, identity shifts, and GLP-1 anxiety or decision fatigue during midlife or menopause. Therapy offers space to slow down, regulate the nervous system, process self-criticism and emotional changes, and reconnect with the body from a place of clarity, compassion, and self-trust.

What Is Included in an Intensive

Pre-Intensive Call:
A 30 to 45-minute call to clarify your goals, understand what you are hoping to work on, and identify the best focus for your intensive.

Intensive Session:
A 2 to 3-hour focused session designed to support deeper work around the specific concern, pattern, or transition you are bringing in.

Integration Follow-Up:
A 50 to 60-minute follow-up session, usually 1 to 2 weeks later, to reflect on what came up, support integration, and identify next steps.

Optional Written Summary and Personalized Tools:
When appropriate, clients may receive a written summary and personalized tools to continue supporting the work after the intensive.

How Intensives Can Support You

Focused Assessment and Intention Setting:
I begin by exploring what brought the client to the intensive, what they are hoping to understand, and what they would like to feel clearer about by the end of the session. Together, we identify a focused intention for the work.

Emotional Processing:
I provide space for clients to process emotions that may feel heavy, confusing, or difficult to access in daily life. This may include sadness, anxiety, anger, grief, shame, uncertainty, or emotional overwhelm.

Pattern Exploration:
I help clients explore recurring emotional, relational, or behavioral patterns that may be keeping them stuck. This can include patterns related to boundaries, self-worth, communication, avoidance, perfectionism, people-pleasing, or self-criticism.

Nervous System Reset:
I support clients with grounding tools, mindfulness practices, and regulation strategies to help the body and mind feel calmer, safer, and more present during and after the intensive.

Life Transition Support:
I work with clients navigating major life changes such as midlife transitions, career shifts, relationship changes, parenting changes, grief, aging, caregiving, or changes in identity and self-perception.

Self-Compassion and Identity Work:
I help clients reconnect with their values, needs, strengths, and sense of self. This work can support clients in moving away from harsh self-judgment and toward greater self-understanding and acceptance.

Practical Tools and Next Steps:
I provide clients with tools and strategies they can continue using after the intensive. This may include reflection exercises, grounding practices, communication tools, journaling prompts, or personalized next steps.

Integration and Reflection:
I support clients in making meaning of what came up during the intensive and identifying how to carry that insight into daily life. This helps create a bridge between the session and continued growth.

Continued Support:
When appropriate, I offer follow-up sessions or ongoing therapy to help clients continue processing, practicing new tools, and maintaining progress after the intensive.

Intensives and reset days are compassionate, focused, and tailored to each client’s unique needs. Through intentional therapeutic support, clients can slow down, focus on what feels unresolved, and leave with clearer insight, practical tools, and a steadier sense of direction.
