What Makes Therapy Intensives Different ?
Unlike standard weekly sessions, a therapy intensive gives you a focused 3-hour experience to work deeply through emotions and patterns that have been keeping you stuck.
You’ll have uninterrupted time to explore your story, process memories through EMDR or mindfulness, and walk away with a renewed sense of clarity.
This approach helps you
- Make meaningful progress faster.
- Gain emotional regulation and grounding.
- Process trauma or attachment wounds safely.
- Begin feeling lighter and more at peace sooner.
Personalized Healing — Because No Two Journeys Are the Same
Every intensive is customized to your goals, your story, and your emotional pace.
Together, we’ll explore what you’ve been holding on to — grief, guilt, fear, or confusion — and gently guide you back to balance.
Depending on your needs, we may integrate:
- EMDR Therapy to process breakup or attachment trauma.
- Mindfulness & Somatic Regulation to calm your nervous system.
- CBT & Narrative Therapy to challenge negative beliefs and gain perspective.
- Inner-Child & Self-Compassion Work to rebuild confidence and self-trust.
You’ll leave the session feeling clearer, more grounded, and equipped with practical tools to support your healing every day.
EMDR for Breakup & Divorce Recovery
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) helps the brain reprocess painful memories so they no longer carry the same emotional charge.
Through EMDR, you can:
- Reduce emotional reactivity to memories of your ex or past relationship.
- Quiet obsessive thoughts and the urge to overanalyze what went wrong.
- Release guilt, resentment, and self-blame that keep you emotionally stuck.
- Rebuild a sense of inner safety and trust in yourself and others.
- Feel calmer, grounded, and open to love again — including self-love.

Why Private-Pay Therapy Matters
When you choose private pay, your healing stays between you and your therapist — not an insurance company
Confidentiality — no diagnosis required or shared records, & your personal boundaries are fully respected.
Freedom — to choose the pace, length, and structure of you sessions, design that truly fits your lifestyle.
Depth — to do work that insurance rarely covers (grief, heartbreak, self-esteem, trauma integration).
Results — what can take months in weekly therapy often happens in one or two intensives.
Breakup recovery isn’t about checking boxes — it’s about giving yourself permission to heal fully, in your own time and way
When EMDR Intensives May Not Be the Right Fit
While EMDR can be powerful for heartbreak and relational trauma, an intensive format isn’t always suitable for every stage of healing
You may need more gradual, weekly support first if you are:
Still in daily contact with your ex or unsure about ending the relationship.
In the early, highly emotional stage of separation.
Experiencing severe dissociation, substance use, or suicidal thoughts.
Lacking a support system or coping tools for aftercare.
Hoping EMDR will “erase” feelings rather than process and integrate them.
When It Can Be Transformative
Once you have some emotional distance and stability, EMDR intensives can help you:
- Reprocess painful memories tied to the breakup.
- Release patterns of self-blame, rejection, or abandonment.
- Reconnect with your confidence and self-worth.
- Move forward feeling grounded, empowered, and emotionally free.
- Instead of meeting once a week or every other week for less than an hour, we’d meet for a several hours over the span of 1-3 days.
- An intensive format may decrease overall treatment time because of time not spent on checking in at the beginning of each session and trying to remember what you’ve worked on and what’s gone well/not well in between sessions.
How Do I Get Started?
We’ll begin with a free 20-minute free consultation so that we can meet, discuss your goals, and see whether an Intensive is the right fit for you.
If it feels aligned, we’ll schedule your sessions and I’ll send you a personalized treatment workbook designed to help you prepare emotionally and mentally for your Intensive.
You’ll have two weeks to complete your workbook, and it must be submitted at least one week before your scheduled session.
This helps us use our time together intentionally and begin with clarity and focus. To be added to our intensives contact us at cecilia@connectingwithyouressence.com or complete our form.
Are There Any Risks or Guarantees?
Therapy Intensives allow us to go deeper, faster, working on meaningful goals without the long gaps between weekly sessions.
Research shows that this concentrated approach can help reduce trauma-related symptoms more efficiently — but as with any therapeutic process, results vary from person to person.
Because we spend extended time processing emotions, it’s normal to feel tired, sensitive, or emotionally raw for a few days afterward.
I’ll check in with you regularly and adjust our pacing to ensure your experience feels safe, grounded, and supportedthroughout the process.
There are no guarantees in healing, but together we’ll create the conditions for meaningful change — with compassion, care, and respect for your nervous system.

How Does a Breakup Healing Intensive Work?
Before your Intensive, we’ll begin with a brief consultation and personalized preparation process. You’ll complete a few reflection prompts to help me understand your relationship history, current emotional challenges, and what healing looks like for you.
This allows me to prepare your session intentionally — focusing on the themes, emotions, and patterns that matter most to you.
If you decide to embark the journey of Therapy Intensives:
You’ll receive a short Pre-Intensive Packet before your session to help you ground, set your intentions, and understand what to expect. It includes gentle journaling prompts and regulation tools to ensure you begin your intensive feeling centered and ready.
After your intensive, you’ll receive the full Post-Intensive Workbook — a guided space to process insights, track emotional shifts, and anchor new perspectives. It includes cognitive-behavioral reflections, EMDR integration pages, and self-care exercises to help you carry your healing into daily life.
This structure allows you to heal safely, deeply, and intentionally — preparing your nervous system before the work and giving you tools to stay grounded and empowered afterward.

The Difference Between the Courage to Redefine Coaching Program & the Breakup Healing Intensive
Breakup/ Divorce Healing Intensive
Focus: Deep emotional release & trauma processing
Best for: Clients who are still feeling emotionally stuck in the past or struggling with unresolved pain after a breakup or divorce.
The Breakup Healing Intensive is a therapeutic experience designed to help you process the deeper emotions held in your body — grief, guilt, anger, or attachment wounds that still feel “unfinished”.
Using trauma-informed approaches like EMDR, somatic work, and mindfulness, this one-time, extended session (90 minutes to 3 hours) gives you the focused time and space to:
- Release emotional pain stored in your nervous system.
- Reconnect with safety, self-compassion, and clarity.
- Begin detaching from old relationship patterns or triggers
- Experience emotional relief and integration in a safe environment.
In short: the Intensive helps you heal what still hurts, so you can create space for peace and self-trust again.
Courage to Redefine Coaching Program
Focus: Rebuilding identity, confidence, and alignment after healing.
Best for: Clients who have processed the pain of their breakup and are now ready to rebuild their life from a place of clarity and courage
The Courage to Redefine Program is a 9-week coaching experience that helps you step into your next chapter with purpose and empowerment.
You’ll learn to:
Rebuild your confidence and reconnect with your authentic self.
- Redefine love, success, and self-worth on your terms.
- Strengthen boundaries and emotional resilience.
- Cultivate new habits, goals, and mindsets that align with your future.
This program combines mindset coaching, emotional regulation, and accountability so you can move forward with clarity and direction — not just healing, but thriving.
In short: the Coaching Program helps you redefine who you are after healing — and design the life you’re ready to live.
