How our EMDR Intensives Work.

Sometimes therapy needs more room.

EMDR Intensives offer extended time to stay with the work instead of stopping when the hour ends.

Each intensive includes:

  • A free initial consultation (virtual or in-person) to see if Kindle is a good fit

  • A personalized schedule based on your energy, needs, and comfort

  • Built-in breaks for rest, movement, and grounding

  • An optional follow-up session for integration

Intensives can complement your ongoing therapy or stand alone as dedicated healing experiences.

  • A focused, single-session experience for targeted healing.

    Purpose:
    Designed for clients who want to address a specific memory, experience, or theme that feels unresolved. It’s also a good introduction to EMDR Intensives if you’re curious but not ready for a multi-day commitment.

    Structure:

    • 60-minute intake consultation (virtual or in-person)

    • One 3-hour EMDR session

    • Short breaks as needed to support regulation and processing

    • Optional 30-minute follow-up (virtual) within 1–2 weeks

    Ideal for:

    • Processing a single-incident trauma (e.g., accident, medical event, birth trauma, loss)

    • Reducing distress from an ongoing stressor (e.g., workplace or relationship challenge)

    • Exploring whether longer intensives may be helpful

    Investment:
    $600 total

  • A consistent rhythm of deeper work spread over weeks or months.

    Purpose:
    Ideal for clients with complex or developmental trauma, or for those already in therapy who want dedicated time to accelerate progress between regular sessions.

    Structure:

    • Begins with a 60-minute planning session to map goals and pacing

    • Recurring half-day (3-hour) or full-day (6-hour) EMDR sessions

    • Each day includes time for grounding, reflection, and integration

    • Optional check-in sessions between intensives for support

    What It Looks Like:
    You might meet every Monday morning for a half-day, or schedule one full-day intensive each month. The structure adapts to your life creating steady, contained progress over time.

    Ideal for:

    • Early childhood or attachment trauma

    • Trauma with multiple layers or themes

    • Clients seeking momentum and continuity

    • Individuals balancing therapy with work, parenting, or life transitions

    Investment:

    • Half-Day (3 hrs): $600

    • Full-Day (6 hrs): $1,200

  • Multi-day immersions in restorative settings designed for deeper, uninterrupted work.

    Purpose
    Retreat Intensives offer an immersive experience that blends trauma processing with rest, reflection, and time in nature.
    They allow you to step outside the demands of daily life and focus completely on healing.
