Squeeze MONTHS of therapy into 1-3 days
I'm excited to share with you that REM Therapy Services now offers EMDR Intensives in person between Tuesdays through Saturdays at our East Markham office (55 Albert Street).
The primary goal for EMDR Intensives is to squeeze weeks or months of therapy into 1-3 full days. If you’ve been considering deeper trauma work and feel eager to move forward with the process, this may be a good option for you.
EMDR intensives are designed for:
✅ High-achievers who want faster results with less disruption to their busy lives
✅ Those feeling stuck in traditional weekly therapy and looking for a breakthrough
✅ Individuals navigating recent or past trauma who want to process it in a structured, supportive way
✅ Those experiencing more severe mood symptoms and seeking faster healing and relief
✅ Those who can’t commit to ongoing regular sessions due to work or home life but can dedicate a few days to focus on a specific therapy goal
With extended sessions over a condensed period of time, EMDR intensives allow you to make significant progress in a short time, helping you move forward with more clarity and relief.
An Investment in Your Healing
EMDR Intensives are a premium priced offering at $1200 per intensive day (5.5 hours, from 10am-3:30pm), while a standard therapy session costs $200 for 50 minutes. I’ll be upfront - EMDR intensives are expensive - and part of that cost reflects the unique convenience of having dedicated, uninterrupted therapy service for the entire day. Still, while your initial investment is higher, there is added value with a full-day intensive. Specifically, the intensive therapy format includes a take-home workbook for us to get clear on our focus areas and goals for treatment. During your intensive days you’ll be treated with refreshments, lunch from a local restaurant (we accommodate for your dietary needs), and a comfortable, distraction-free environment to help you focus entirely on your healing.
You'll also receive recommendations for a local bed & breakfast if you're travelling from out of town, to enhance your rest and respite as you're doing deep emotional work.
If you believe in the value of therapy, you could potentially be spending around $200 per week, every week or two, for months, or even years on end (I meet a lot of “therapy veterans” in my practice). However with the intensive treatment model, you commit to a higher investment upfront, and you could achieve powerful results and make significant gains in healing in under a week.
By condensing weeks (or even months) of therapy into 1-3 full days, you could actually save both time and money in the long run. You’ll reduce the need for weekly travel for example, and minimize time and emotional energy spent in prolonged therapy, and reach your goals faster. I’ve seen this powerful healing happen firsthand, and I’m truly honoured to offer this unique therapy service to more people across the GTA.
If this sounds like something you may like to explore, please reach out and I'd be happy to answer any questions along the way.
