Half-Day and Full-Day Therapy Intensives for Women Who Need to Go Deeper Than Weekly Sessions Allow.
A therapy intensive is not a longer version of a regular session. It’s a different kind of work entirely, concentrated, immersive, and built to create the kind of shift that can take months of weekly sessions to reach.
Serving high-achieving women across Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, and South Carolina who are ready to do concentrated, body-informed work and move through patterns that weekly sessions haven’t been able to fully reach.
What Weekly Sessions Haven’t Been Able to TouchYou Know What the Pattern Is. You’ve Named It. Now You’re Ready to Actually Shift It.
You're not new to this work. You've done the therapy, the journaling, the self-reflection. You know the pattern. What you haven't had yet is enough uninterrupted time and space to actually feel it change in your body. The 50-minute hour gets you to the edge of something. Then the clock stops.
You're at a turning point, or approaching one. A major life shift, a relationship that keeps breaking down, a season where something needs to move and you're finally ready to let it. You want to do that work with focus and intention, the same way you approach everything else that matters to you.
You want body-based work. Breathwork, somatic practice, something that reaches the part of you that talking alone hasn't touched. And you want enough time to go somewhere with it, not stop right when it opens. That's what this is built for.
The Extended Time Is the Whole Point. It’s Where the Deep Work Finally Has Room to Land.
In a 50-minute session, by the time you’re warmed up and into something real, it’s often time to stop. A therapy intensive changes that dynamic entirely. With a half-day or full-day format, there’s enough time to go past the surface, work with what comes up in the body, process it fully, and integrate it before you leave.
Intensive are structured around what you’re bringing: a specific pattern, a transition, a moment in your life where you need something more than weekly work can offer.
What to Expect When You Book a Therapy Intensive.
Step 1: Reach out
Send a message through the contact form expressing you’re interested in a therapy intensive.
You’ll schedule a brief call to talk about what you’re bringing, what you’re hoping to move, and whether the intensive format is the right fit for where you are right now. This call protects your investment and your time.
Step 2: Your Pre-Intensive Session
Before your intensive day, you and I will meet for a dedicated pre-intensive session.
This is where you map out the specific focus for your intensive, identify the patterns or experiences you want to work through, and prepare your nervous system for the depth of work ahead. You won’t show up to your intensive day cold. You’ll arrive knowing exactly what you’re there to do.
Step 3: Your Intensive Day
Half-day intensives run approximately three to four hours. Full-day intensives run approximately six hours with built-in rest and integration breaks.
I structure the day around you: your patterns, your nervous system, your pace. Sessions move between guided conversation, IFS-based parts exploration, breathwork, somatic practice, and body-based movement depending on what you need and what the work calls for. There is time to go deep, time to process what comes up, and time to integrate before you leave.
Step 4: Post-Intensive Support
The days following an intensive are when the work continues to settle.
I provide post-intensive check-in support so you’re not navigating what comes up alone. If ongoing individual therapy is part of your plan, the intensive feeds directly into that work. If the intensive is a standalone experience, the integration support helps you take what shifted and build on it in your real life.
Therapy Intensives. Half-Day or Full Day.
Breaking a Long-Standing Pattern
You’ve named it. You understand it. And it’s still there. The intensive format gives you the uninterrupted time to go underneath a pattern that weekly sessions have approached but not fully moved, using IFS-based parts work and somatic practice to get to the root and give your nervous system something different to work from.
Navigating a Major Life Transition
Divorce, loss, a career pivot, a relationship ending, a chapter closing faster than you were ready for. Major transitions carry emotional, relational, and somatic weight that deserves more than a weekly hour. An intensive creates the space to process the transition fully, understand what it’s activating, and move into the next chapter from a grounded place.
Unpacking Burnout at the Root
Surface-level burnout recovery changes your habits. Real burnout recovery changes the pattern underneath the habits. An intensive goes to the nervous system, the over-functioning, the parts of you that never got permission to stop, and does the kind of deep body-based work that makes rest actually feel like rest when you leave.
Preparing for or Processing a Difficult Season
Sometimes you can see the hard thing coming: a difficult family gathering, a conversation you’ve been avoiding, a season of life you know is going to be heavy. An intensive gives you the time to prepare your nervous system, clarify your intention, and build the internal resources you’ll need before you walk into it.

Why the Weekly Hour Has a CeilingSome Things Need More Time Than a Weekly Session Can Hold
The patterns that bring most women to therapy, the over-functioning, the emotional suppression, the relational cycles, the nervous system that won’t slow down, didn’t develop overnight. They built over years, sometimes decades, of circumstances that made those responses the safest available option. Working through them in 50-minute increments is possible. And it takes time, because the work has to be paced to what the nervous system can hold in a single session.
A therapy intensive changes that pacing entirely. Instead of opening something, stopping, and waiting a week to return to it, you open it and stay. The body has time to process what’s coming up. The parts work has time to go past the first layer. The breathwork and somatic practice have time to actually complete their arc. That continuity is what makes the intensive format clinically distinct from weekly therapy, and it’s why clients often experience a level of movement in a single intensive that surprised them given how long they’d been working on the same thing in weekly therapy sessions.
What Becomes Possible on the Other Side of an Intensive
-
YOU LEAVE DIFFERENT THAN YOU ARRIVED
Not a list of insights to think about later. Not more to process on your own. An intensive is designed to take you from the opening to the integration within the same container, so what shifts in the work has time to settle before you leave. You come in carrying something. You leave understanding it differently, and responding to it differently, from the inside.
-
THE NERVOUS SYSTEM WORK GOES DEEPER
When the body has three, four, or six hours to work with instead of 50 minutes, the somatic process has time to complete itself. The breathwork builds, opens, and integrates. The body-based practices reach layers that a weekly session can approach but not always stay with long enough to move. Clients describe leaving intensives feeling different in their bodies, not just in their thinking.
-
YOU MOVE INTO WHAT'S NEXT FROM A CLEARER PLACE
Whether the intensive is about a specific transition, a long-standing pattern, or a season of life you’re navigating, you leave with more clarity about what you’re actually working with and what you need to take forward. The next chapter, the next conversation, the next decision, doesn’t feel as heavy when you’ve done the work to understand what you’re bringing into it.
-
No. You don't have to be working with me in ongoing individual therapy to book an intensive. Some women come to an intensive as a standalone experience. Others use it to go deeper into work they're already doing with me or with another therapist. What matters most is that you're in a stable enough place to do concentrated, deep work, which is exactly what the screening call before your intensive is designed to assess. If you're unsure whether you're ready, that conversation will help us figure it out together.
-
A half-day intensive runs approximately three to four hours and is well-suited for women who have a specific pattern, transition, or experience they want to move through with real depth and focus. A full-day intensive runs approximately six hours with built-in rest and integration breaks, and is designed for women who are ready to go to the root of something that has had a long time to build. If you're not sure which format fits what you're bringing, we'll talk through it on the screening call. The right format is the one that matches the size and weight of what you're ready to work on.
