The goal of an EMDR intensive is to process through one significant trauma or multiple traumas in an intensive but shortened amount of time (3-4 hours). Some studies show that 84%-90% of single-trauma victims no longer have post-traumatic stress disorder after only three sessions of EMDR.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Intensive Program sessions are designed to provide a concentrated and accelerated therapeutic experience for individuals seeking rapid relief from emotional distress and trauma. These sessions typically involve a comprehensive Psychotherapy Intake Assessment, lasting 90 minutes, where goals are established and the focus for subsequent EMDR sessions is determined. The actual EMDR Intensive Sessions, lasting three hours each, incorporate a variety of therapeutic techniques, including resourcing exercises and the identification of target memories. The primary objective during these sessions is to reprocess and alleviate the emotional distress associated with these target memories, enabling individuals to move forward in their healing journey more efficiently.

Following the EMDR Intensive Sessions, a vital component is the Follow-up Psychotherapy Session, lasting 60 minutes, scheduled a few weeks later. This session serves as a check-in to assess the individual's progress since completing the intensive sessions. It provides an opportunity to discuss life changes, evaluate the effectiveness of the EMDR intervention, and collaboratively determine any necessary next steps, whether that involves continued therapy with a primary therapist, further EMDR sessions to address additional memories, or supporting the individual in living a life free from the burdens of trauma. Overall, EMDR Intensive Program sessions distinguish themselves by their focused, goal-oriented approach, aiming to expedite the therapeutic process and empower individuals to overcome emotional challenges more rapidly than traditional therapy models.
