Trauma & Attachment Therapy Intensives in NJ & PA
Is traditional therapy just not cutting it anymore?
You’ve done the work. You’ve learned the skills. But something is still holding you back.
⟶ Get unstuck, for real.
You’ve read the books, done the self-work, and know the red flags…Because here’s the truth: just knowing your patterns doesn’t break them. In just one intensive you can rewire your nervous system, break deep patterns, and finally start living, not just surviving.
⟶ Fast-track your healing, because you’re tired of waiting.
You want change, and you want it now. Individual therapy barely scratches the surface. Meanwhile, you’re still stuck in your head, overanalyzing. One intensive condenses months of therapy into just a few days, creating deep, lasting change that you’ve been looking for.
⟶ Stop just talking about it, start healing it.
You’ve told your story. You’ve analyzed it to death. But somehow, it still owns you. That’s because trauma isn’t just a thought, it’s stored in your nervous system. One intensive can help you actually release what’s been keeping you stuck.
What is an intensive?
If talking about it was enough, you’d be healed by now.
So, why the heck are you still stuck? Because real healing isn’t just about understanding your trauma, it’s about rewiring how your brain and body respond to it. A trauma intensive is deep, focused therapy designed to get you unstuck, fast. Instead of spending months in therapy, chipping away at the same surface-level patterns, an intensive helps you go straight to the root and start changing it.
Think of it as six months of therapy condensed into a few powerful sessions. No fluff. No waiting around for breakthroughs. Just real, deep work that shifts what’s been keeping you stuck. This is for you if you’re tired of repeating the same cycles, overthinking every decision, and feeling like you “get it” but nothing ever actually changes.

Imagine finally getting to…
✓ Stop overthinking every word and finally say what you really feel.
No more spiraling over texts, replaying every conversation, or needing someone else to validate your choices. You know what’s right for you. You make decisions and move the on, without second-guessing yourself for hours (or days).
✓ Walk away from toxic people without the guilt.
You finally stop excusing their behaviors. You don’t get sucked into the manipulation, the false promises, or the guilt trips. You leave and actually feel good about it, because you know you deserve better, and you don’t owe anyone an explanation for choosing yourself.
✓ Stop waking up with anxiety & overthinking at 2 AM.
Your brain isn’t running on high alert 24/7. You don’t spend hours analyzing what could go wrong. You sleep through the night without waking up in a panic. You feel calm for the first time in… forever.
✓ Feel safe in your own body again.
The tight chest, the racing heart, the feeling like you’re constantly waiting for the next disaster? Gone. Your body finally relaxes because it’s not stuck in survival mode anymore. You don’t just think about peace, you actually feel it.
✓ Actually heal instead of just talking about it.
You’ve been in therapy. You’ve analyzed every red flag. You get the pattern. But now? You don’t just understand it, you break it. You’re not just self-aware, you’re free.

FAQs
Other intensive questions? I’ve got answers.
-
Therapy intensives can be a valuable investment, providing rapid symptom relief and deeper, more focused treatment compared to traditional sessions.
Many clients find that these sessions lead to faster progress and greater engagement! While there may be a higher upfront cost, the benefits of accelerated healing and tailored care make intensives a positive and effective choice for those seeking significant improvement in a shorter time.
-
One reason clients love intensives is because they get 6 months or more worth of therapy in just 1-3 days.
The financial investment may be the same as weekly therapy, but the time frame can be more advantageous, especially for busy people!
The benefit of not stopping and starting so frequently in a therapy session (like in classic 60 min sessions each week) provides the time and space needed to really do a deep dive into a client’s story.
An intensive is a different way of approaching treatment.
-
Therapy Intensives are more effective and efficient than normal 50-minute therapy sessions. Typically in a 50-minute session, there are at least 5-10 minutes of “check-in” at the start of the session and usually, 5-10 minutes spent on “closing up” or “checking out” at the end of a session - Leaving only 30-40 minutes for deep therapeutic work.
Therapy Intensives are different.
A 3-hour Therapy Intensive allows for 2.5 hours of depth work. That’s the equivalent of five 50-minute sessions or more than a month of therapy - in a single day.
-
Evidence shows that intensive short-term dynamic psychotherapy can produce quicker and more significant improvements in anxiety symptoms and overall well-being than traditional therapeutic methods, click here.
Studies find that intensive EMDR therapy can achieve faster and potentially more lasting relief from trauma symptoms than conventional, spaced-out therapy sessions, click here.
Economic analyses suggest that intensive therapy formats may be more cost-effective and yield similar or better outcomes compared to standard therapy schedules, click here.
-
The cost of a therapy intensive varies based on the length and type of intensive you choose.
I offer payment plans or sliding scale fees in some cases, so don’t hesitate to ask if cost is a concern.
All costs include:
Personalized treatment workbook.
60-minute pre-intensive interview to determine your goals.
60-minute post-intensive session
This is in addition to your Therapy Intensive time, which is 3 hours.
Cost for Single Day Intensive: $1,200.00
-
Absolutely! Therapy Intensives work very well as an adjunct therapy.
I would ask that you sign a Release of Information so that your current therapist and I can collaborate/coordinate to best serve you.
-
Therapy Intensives are not covered by insurance. However, if you have out-of-network benefits, your insurance company may reimburse a portion of the Therapy Intensive.
This is determined by your insurance on case-by-case basis.
I’ve had some clients in the past who were able to get a significant portion of the cost of an intensive covered.
However, this is highly individual and determined by your plan.

Let’s schedule a time to talk! I’m happy to answer any questions and explore your unique situation to see if a Therapy Intensive may be helpful for you.
-
There are many reasons an intensive may not be the best fit.
The most evident reasons are:
The person needs residential treatment with oversight because self-harming is a concern.
The person is detoxing from substance.
The person needs crisis intervention.
The person feels “forced” into therapy. An intensive is effective if all participants are willing.
-
After booking, I hold the dates for one week and require you to complete all of your paperwork in the client portal.
I then charge a non-refundable deposit of half the total intensive cost.
I charge the full fee for canceled or rescheduled sessions with less than 24 hours' notice, or no-shows.
I make exceptions for unavoidable conflicts or emergencies and will work with you to offer other arrangements to avoid the cancellation fee.
