We understand that the traditional therapy format of weekly or fortnightly sessions may not work for everyone. You may want to accelerate your progress or minimise disruption to your personal or work life by taking a shorter time to focus on your emotional wellbeing and facilitate growth. EMDR intensive programs are tailored to your needs, which is why we offer two different intensive programs. 

At Evolve, our EMDR Intensive Programs involve scheduling treatment sessions closer together and extending the usual 50-minute sessions to 90 minutes, which provides an opportunity to move through the 8-phases of EMDR more effectively and enables a deeper level of processing to support reprocessing traumatic material more effectively and resulting in faster symptom relief. 

You will work with an EMDR therapist that has several years experience in EMDR therapy, has completed advanced training in EMDR and is working toward Accreditation in EMDR. Our EMDR intensive therapists are also registered with EMDRAA.
