Still stuck after months—or years—of therapy?

When trauma runs deeper, you need more than generic sessions.

EMDR & Brainspotting Intensives

In Pensacola & online throughout Florida & Alabama

Your Trauma Deserves More Than Generic Therapy.

You’ve tried the weekly therapy route.

Fifty minutes goes by in a blur.

  • You barely scratch the surface.

  • By the next week, the momentum is gone.

  • Meanwhile, childhood wounds, religious or sexual trauma, and even chronic illness symptoms keep pressing down on you. It feels like life is unraveling — and you don’t have years to wait for relief.

Weekly Therapy Opens the Wound… But Doesn’t Let It Heal.

What Makes EMDR Intensives Different?

Weekly therapy is like climbing a mountain in tiny steps. Just when you hit something big… time’s up. The stop-and-start cycle leaves you frustrated, stuck, and wondering if you’ll ever feel real change.

Intensives break that cycle.

Instead of opening pain and shutting it down week after week, you get extended, focused time to move all the way through.

With EMDR Intensives, you can:

  • Stay in the work long enough for deep processing.

  • Experience breakthroughs in days instead of years.

  • Step out of survival mode and feel lasting relief.

This format was designed for people carrying heavy trauma histories,
childhood wounds, religious shame, sexual trauma, or even the added weight of chronic illness.


When your nervous system has been carrying pain for decades, you don’t need “just one more weekly session.


You need a safe, immersive approach that finally creates change.

Intensives are available in-person in Pensacola or virtually throughout Florida or Alabama.

How EMDR Intensives Work: A Clear Path to Healing

    • 90-minute intake session (virtual or in-person)

    • We’ll talk through your story, your goals, and what you need most right now.

    • Together, we’ll create a personalized plan so you walk into your intensive feeling ready and grounded.

    • 1 to 3 full days of EMDR + Brainspotting (6–12 hours total).

    • Extended time means you don’t lose momentum after 50 minutes — you can stay in the work and actually move through it.

    • Breaks are built in so you can process at your own pace.

    • Integration session to make sure your healing sticks.

    • You’ll leave with tools and resources you can use daily.

    • Optional follow-up sessions available if you want more support.

From the very first call to your final session, you’ll be guided every step of the way — so you’re never left wondering, “What now?”

When life feels like it’s falling apart, waiting months or years to feel better isn’t an option.
Every day stuck in the same cycle costs you more — more energy, more peace, more of yourself.

An EMDR Intensive is an investment in freedom.


Freedom from carrying trauma alone. Freedom from years of stop-and-start sessions. Freedom to finally feel like yourself again
