Is a Therapy Intensive Right for You?
Outpatient therapeutic intensives are designed for individuals who want focused, extended support in a short period of time—while continuing to live at home and maintain daily responsibilities.
Because this work is deep and emotionally engaging, we use a thoughtful screening process to ensure that this level of care is safe, supportive, and aligned with your needs.
Process
Step 1
You’ll begin by completing a confidential intake form where you’ll share:
-
What’s bringing you to seek an intensive
-
Your current emotional and mental health needs
-
Any prior therapy or healing work
-
Current supports in your life (therapy, medication, community, etc.)
-
Medical or wellness considerations
-
Your goals for an intensive experience
This helps us understand whether an intensive format is the right container
for you.
Step 2
Clinical Screening Conversation
Next, you’ll meet with a licensed clinician for a 30–45 minute screening call. Together, we’ll explore:
-
Your readiness for longer therapeutic sessions
-
Your ability to self-regulate and ground during emotional work
-
Your intentions, expectations, and capacity for integration
-
Whether this level of care supports your current season of healing
This conversation is collaborative—not evaluative—and centered on
your wellbeing.
Step 3
Care Coordination
(When Applicable)
If you are already working with a therapist or provider, we may—with your written consent—coordinate care to support continuity and integration before and after the intensive.
Step 4
Informed Consent & Readiness
Before moving forward, you’ll receive clear information about:
-
What an outpatient therapeutic intensive includes (and does not include)
-
Emotional benefits and possible experiences
-
Expectations for participation, pacing, and aftercare
-
Post-intensive integration support
We move forward only when you feel informed, grounded, and aligned.
