Therapy Intensives for Trauma, PTSD, and EMDR Healing

What Are Therapy Intensives?

Healing doesn’t always happen best in small doses. The traditional therapy model—50 minutes once a week—offers steady support, but the stop-and-start rhythm can sometimes feel slow, especially when working through deep-rooted trauma.

Therapy intensives offer another way. Instead of spreading sessions out over months, an intensive condenses hours of therapy into one focused block of time—3 to 5 hours in a single day, or over several consecutive days. This format allows you to dive in, stay with the work, and create momentum for lasting change.

At Mosaic Mind & Body Wellness, we specialize in trauma therapy, PTSD treatment, and EMDR intensives that provide a safe, contained space for deep processing. Intensives can feel like a personal healing retreat: time away from distractions, dedicated entirely to you.

Why Choose a Therapy Intensive?

Therapy intensives may be right for you if you:

  • Feel stuck in weekly therapy and want a breakthrough

  • Have a specific trauma, memory, or life event you’re ready to process

  • Want focused support to address long-standing patterns

  • Have a busy schedule that makes weekly therapy hard to maintain

  • Live outside the Austin area but want to work with us

  • Are preparing for a major life transition and want to do intentional inner work

Many clients describe intensives as “pressing fast forward” on their healing. What normally takes months of weekly sessions can often be achieved in days.

Benefits of Therapy Intensives

  • Accelerated Progress – Move through stuck places more quickly

  • Deeper Healing – Extended sessions allow you to stay with the process instead of stopping just as things open up

  • Focused Support – Work closely with your therapist over several uninterrupted hours

  • Convenience – Fewer overall sessions, less time off work, and fewer schedule conflicts

  • Cost-Effective – Shorter treatment timelines and less ongoing expense

Are EMDR Intensives Effective?

Research into intensives is still growing, but early studies show promising results. EMDR therapy in an intensive format has been linked to faster symptom reduction, fewer total sessions, and sustained relief—especially for PTSD and complex trauma (CPTSD).

Many people find that the immersive nature of an intensive allows them to process more fully, without losing momentum between weekly appointments.

What to Expect

Your intensive is designed to be immersive, supportive, and tailored to you. Here’s how the process typically unfolds:

Pre-Intensive Consultation
Before we begin, we’ll meet to understand your history, supports, and goals. Together, we’ll outline the focus of your intensive and make sure you feel fully prepared.

The Intensive Experience
This is where the deep work happens. You’ll spend extended, uninterrupted time in therapy, combining EMDR, ego state therapy, and somatic approaches in a way that’s personalized to your needs. The longer format allows you to go deeper without the abrupt stop-and-start of weekly sessions.

You’ll also have space to rest, ground, and integrate throughout the day. Many clients describe the experience as part therapy, part personal retreat.

Post-Intensive Integration
After your intensive, we’ll meet for a follow-up session to reflect, integrate insights, and plan your next steps. This helps anchor the shifts you’ve made and supports continued healing.
