EMDR Intensives in Cincinnati

Accelerated Healing. Lasting Change.

Maybe you’ve been meaning to start weekly therapy for a while now, but your schedule feels too hectic. Or perhaps you need help—and a lot of it—right now, and don’t want to wait months to start feeling better.

The good news: you don’t have to wait years to reclaim your peace.

EMDR Intensives offer a transformative path to freedom—where months of healing can unfold in focused, powerful sessions. You can release intrusive thoughts, calm overwhelming body sensations, and find emotional liberation from past trauma.

This is your chance to go deep, move fast, and emerge stronger.
No more start-and-stop therapy. No more scheduling struggles.
Just focused, life-changing healing—on your terms.

Why EMDR Intensives Can Transform Your Healing Journey

When Dr. Francine Shapiro developed EMDR, she envisioned longer sessions that allowed complete processing cycles. Unfortunately, traditional insurance limits often restrict sessions to 50–60 minutes—cutting the deep work short.

Over years of clinical experience, we’ve found that weekly sessions can make it difficult to reach meaningful breakthroughs because:

• Much of the hour is spent checking in or grounding, leaving limited time for trauma processing.

• Stopping mid-process can make clients feel “stuck” between sessions.

• Returning immediately to work or family afterward can interrupt healing and integration.

EMDR Intensives solve these challenges by giving you the uninterrupted time and space needed for full, safe trauma reprocessing.

How EMDR Intensives Help

Accelerated Progress

Work through traumatic memories more completely in each session—often achieving months of progress in a single intensive.

Deeper Processing

Extended time allows your brain to stay in the “healing zone,” so you can safely explore and resolve deeper emotional layers.

Momentum in Healing

Instead of starting and stopping each week, intensives sustain your therapeutic momentum, creating faster, more lasting change.

Flexibility & Convenience

Perfect for busy professionals, parents, and travelers—schedule focused blocks of healing time around your life.

Cost-Effective

Though the upfront investment is higher, clients often need fewer total hours to achieve results—saving time, energy, and money long-term.

Comprehensive Support

Each intensive includes grounding breaks, integration work, and complete therapist support throughout your experience.

What to Expect from an EMDR Intensive

The EMDR Intensive Program is structured in four parts for optimal safety and effectiveness.

1. Consultation Call (Free, 15 Minutes)

A quick phone call to ensure EMDR intensives are the right fit for your needs and goals.

2. Assessment Appointment (2 Hours)

This in-depth evaluation happens one week prior to your intensive. We’ll discuss your concerns, answer questions, set clear goals, and provide your personalized treatment workbook to guide your journey.

3. Intensive Processing Session (Approx. 3 Hours)

This is where the focused healing begins. You’ll work through specific memories or emotions using EMDR techniques in a calm, supported setting. We build in breaks and grounding exercises to keep you centered and safe throughout.

4. Follow-Up Integration Session (1 Hour)

Held about one week later, this session helps you process insights and integrate the changes from your intensive into daily life.

If you’re in therapy but feel stuck, intensives can help release the deeper blocks that talk therapy alone hasn’t reached.
