What is EMDR?
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, evidence-based psychotherapy method designed to help individuals process and heal from trauma, anxiety, and distressing life experiences. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR focuses on the brain's natural healing processes, utilising bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements) to help reprocess traumatic memories and reduce their lingering effects. EMDR has been endorsed by numerous mental health organisations worldwide, including the World Health Organization (WHO).

EMDR Intensives
What are EMDR Intensives?
EMDR Intensives are designed for individuals who want to achieve substantial progress in a condensed timeframe. These intensives typically consist of several extended sessions over a few days or weeks, providing a focused and immersive therapeutic experience.
This approach can be particularly beneficial if you:
- Have a demanding work schedule or family commitments that make weekly sessions challenging
- Are looking to address specific issues more rapidly
- Prefer a deep, immersive therapeutic process
Who Are EMDR Intensives For?
EMDR Intensives are suitable for individuals who are:
- Motivated to engage deeply in the therapeutic process
- Seeking rapid relief from acute symptoms
- Unable to commit to regular weekly sessions due to time constraints
I offer EMDR Intensives in two formats: 3 hours or 6 hours with a break for lunch. Before scheduling intensive sessions, I conduct an in-depth consultation to ensure this approach suits your needs.
These intensives are not about "fixing" you (you are not broken) but about understanding, releasing, and empowering you to embrace a new chapter of well-being.
In a safe and supportive space, EMDR Intensives guide you through the origins of your coping mechanisms, unveiling the roots of your experiences. By exploring how these strategies evolved and understanding their present impact, you are empowered to embark on a journey towards healing.
Weekly EMDR Sessions
For those seeking regular support, I offer weekly 90-minute EMDR sessions. These sessions provide a structured yet flexible approach to addressing your specific needs and working through distressing memories over time. Consistent weekly sessions allow for steady progress and ongoing support in a manageable format.
