Introducing EMDR Intensives

Focused EMDR Intensive Therapy for Individuals and Couples

Flexible EMDR Intensive Formats

EMDR Intensives are available in person in Sydney and online across Australia.

For suitable clients, EMDR Intensive Therapy may also be offered in nature-based, mobile, or retreat-style formats by individual arrangement.

This may be suitable for highly motivated clients seeking focused therapeutic work in a private, supportive setting. Availability depends on clinical suitability, location, privacy, scheduling, safety planning, and additional travel-related costs.

An initial consultation is required before booking an EMDR Intensive.

What is an EMDR Intensive?

An EMDR Intensive is a structured block of EMDR therapy delivered in longer sessions or across several sessions within a shorter period of time.

Rather than meeting weekly over many months, EMDR Intensive Therapy allows more time for preparation, target planning, EMDR processing, nervous system regulation, and integration support.

This format may be helpful for people who want focused therapeutic work on a specific trauma memory, emotional trigger, phobia, anxiety pattern, or distressing life experience.

Outcomes vary from person to person. An initial consultation is required to assess suitability, readiness, safety, and whether an intensive format is appropriate for your needs.

In-Person and Online EMDR Intensives

In-person EMDR Intensives are available in Sydney. Online EMDR Intensives are available Australia-wide from the comfort of your own private space.

Online EMDR Intensive Requirements

  • comfortable private space
  • computer with camera, microphone, and full-sized screen
  • headphones
