Intensives & Groups
EMDR Weekend Trauma Intensive
If you have reached out to me, you know that my waitlist to be seen for trauma treatment is significant. This has troubled me. It’s hard for me when I know someone is suffering from trauma and unable to receive the treatment they need.
I have decided to open up a new offering for weekend trauma intensives, including EMDR therapy. If this is something you believe would be helpful for you, please reach out to me via email and we can discuss how we may be able to customize a weekend trauma intensive to address your difficulties. Learn more about what an EMDR session is like here.
After a thorough assessment, we will discuss what your unique intensive would look like. Typically, the best results come from three consecutive days and three hours each day.
The weekend intensive schedule is:
Friday: 2-5pm CST*
Saturday: 9am-12pm CST*
Sunday: 9am-12pm CST*
*This process will include some homework, grounding exercises, and self-care assignments, so prepare for some processing work in the hours following our intensive sessions.
Cost: $225/hour
2-Day Couples Intensive
Are you struggling with a decreased connection?
Do you feel like the spark you once had has faded?
Are conflicts becoming too frequent or leaving you feeling damaged and hurt?
Are you having difficulty with conflict resolution and repair?
Has there been a betrayal of trust that you’re finding hard to recover from?
Are you questioning whether it’s time to call it quits, wondering if ending the relationship might be better for everyone involved?
We Can Help
Traditional weekly therapy sessions often don’t provide the time and space needed to create real change. In a typical one-hour session, much of the time is spent just warming up to deeper emotions or softening into vulnerability, only to have the session end just as the real work begins. This 2-day workshop has been specifically designed to allow the time necessary to reach the space where meaningful change happens.
Our Approach
In this intensive, we draw on three key therapeutic modalities to guide your journey:
Relational Life Therapy (RLT): Developed by Terry Real, RLT focuses on creating deep, authentic connections by addressing power dynamics and communication issues. We’ll help you move away from unhelpful patterns toward healthier, more balanced ways of relating.
Gottman Therapy: Grounded in the research of Drs. John and Julie Gottman, this method builds a solid foundation of trust, commitment, and effective conflict resolution. We’ll explore the key elements that make relationships thrive.
Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT): Created by Dr. Sue Johnson, EFT centers on adult attachment and bonding. This structured, short-term approach helps couples understand and express their emotions in ways that foster closeness and security.
Who is this for?
This intensive is designed for couples at any stage of their relationship. Whether you’re facing significant challenges or simply want to deepen your connection, there is so much to be gained. If you’re dealing with unresolved conflicts, communication breakdowns, or looking to reignite your bond, this experience will provide the time and space for meaningful healing and growth.
What to expect:
Over two days, we’ll spend six hours each day working through tailored exercises, deep conversations, and guided reflections designed to foster intimacy and understanding. This immersive experience isn’t just about the time we spend together—it’s an investment in your future as a couple, where you both feel seen, heard, and deeply connected.
Cost of 2 Day Couples Intensive (6 hours each day, 12 hours total): $5,000
Let’s take this journey together to reconnect, repair, and rediscover the strength of your relationship.

B.R.A.V.E.
Recovery from Betrayal Trauma Group
Why is this group called B. R. A. V. E.?
This will be our framework and our goals for the work we do together.
During each group, we will have time for education and processing. We will also be working through homework assignments and personal goals each week in between sessions.

B - Boundaries
R - Repairing Trust
A - Attachment work
V - Vulnerability
E - Empowerment
When we experience betrayal trauma from someone we love, it really devastates our sense of self. In this 6 week workshop, we will explore our BOUNDARIES. We will take time to learn about boundaries and KNOW, NAME, and MAINTAIN our own unique boundaries.
Our ability to trust is significantly altered when we experience this type of crisis. Not only do we struggle to trust others around us, but the most devastating part is that we also start to doubt our ability to trust ourselves. It takes work to REPAIR TRUST both in others and ourselves.
This is where the healing work comes in with ATTACHMENT WORK and strengthening the ability to trust through VULNERABILITY in a group process. We are all in this together. Experiencing the power of others who “get” you and understand what you’re going through is extremely healing.
From here, we work on our EMPOWERMENT. Through trust and vulnerability comes courage. As we develop these abilities and a stronger sense of self, we come full circle to setting healthy boundaries and feeling stronger and more fulfilled in ourselves and the relationships we have around us.
