What is a trauma intensive?
When 50 minutes is not enough
Do you ever feel like a 50 minute therapy appointment once a week, isn't enough to fully process your trauma? Especially when you have complex trauma, complex PTSD, or a lot of negative core beliefs to uncover and process? I have found that extended trauma sessions focused on processing and recovering gives us more time to go deeper so we can truly heal.
A trauma intensive is an extended therapy session, from 3-4 hours over the traditional 50 minute blocks.
Who can this help?
This is ideal for individuals who feel stuck or plateaued in treatment. Perhaps you feel therapy becomes just a check in about your week and there's no deeper exploration into the origin of your symptoms. Therapy can begin to feel like venting sessions versus actual healing and movement forward.
This is wonderful for people who live on a neighbor island or out of state who wish to travel outside of their normal environment so they can focus on recovery and repair. The priority is you when you are here.
Do you feel stuck in weekly therapy? Do you have limited availability for ongoing treatment or just want to feel better NOW versus in one year? Is your current environment not conductive to healing and you need time away?
