Virtual EMDR Intensives in Ohio
Sea Glass is Ohio's trusted leader in EMDR Intensives. We're honored to bring this model of therapy to Ohio - because the traditional model of weekly therapy isn't for everyone. EMDR Intensives provide customized support for targeted mental health and wellness goals, allowing you to knock out months of therapy in days.
Sea Glass is proud to be a leader in bringing EMDR Intensives to Ohio. Intensive EMDR is an incredible model of therapy that allows for significant healing in ways that just aren’t possible with weekly therapy. EMDR Intensives allow you to feel better, faster, at a fraction of the cost. What could be better?
Research shows that online EMDR is just as effective as in-person. Get all the incredible benefits of EMDR therapy without the added hassle of traffic or sitting in an awkward waiting room.
Most Sea Glass clients reach their goals with just 3-12 EMDR Intensive sessions. Research supports that with EMDR Intensives, people need less overall treatment to reach their goals. EMDR Intensives are an up-front cost that are least expensive option in the long run.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Intensives are an opportunity to condense your therapeutic experience and progress into a shorter period of time. EMDR Intensives are an accelerated therapy model that allows for healing and growth faster than possible with weekly therapy. Intensives are available virtually to adults located anywhere in Ohio. Learn more about EMDR therapy.
EMDR Intensives are essentially a multi-day mental health retreat. While traditional therapy is offered in a weekly hour-long format for months or years on end, Intensive EMDR allows you to experience the luxury of focusing solely on your healing and growth. Intensives allow you to find faster relief and long-lasting improvement.
Instead of weekly 50 minute sessions, you meet with a certified EMDR therapist for longer sessions, for 1-3 days per week. Think of it as your own personal trauma healing workshop. Ongoing EMDR is available if you’d like to address multiple goals.
Already have a therapist for weekly support? No problem! Intensive EMDR therapy can be an adjunct to your regular therapy experience. Learn more about adjunct EMDR.
“I definitely see now why some of the things in my adult life came from the foundation that was laid in my childhood. I wish I’d learned some of these things at a younger age. My EMDR Intensive was one of the best decisions I’ve made!”

EMDR Intensives are designed to support your schedule. No need to attend weekly appointments for months, without an end date in sight. No more coordinating your schedule to accommodate a weekly therapy appointment.
Combining the compounding benefits of EMDR therapy with the benefits of working intensively - less overall therapy is needed to reach your goals. Even for complex trauma. Get out of therapy and on with your life!
EMDR Intensives are an up-front investment that is more cost-effective in the long run than weekly therapy. Traditional therapy for trauma, even with weekly EMDR, can take months or years.
Don't spend months sitting on someone's wait list for therapy. EMDR Intensives at Sea Glass allow you to skip the waitlist for weekly appointments - giving you faster access to select spots, including weekend appointments.

One intensive is equivalent to MONTHS of therapy. We’re not kidding! EMDR therapy addresses the psychological and physical symptoms stemming from adverse life experiences. EMDR is not just for trauma; it is also used for performance enhancement. EMDR Intensives are therapy for lasting change, not just therapy for support.

We provide treatment recommendations for your whole being. We have relationships with other health and wellness professionals in Ohio to provide you with comprehensive, holistic approaches that extends beyond mental health treatment.

Research shows online EMDR to be just as effective as in-person. Our online model of intensive EMDR allows for all of the amazing benefits of therapy - without the added hassle of a commute or sitting in an awkward waiting room.

Because one intensive is equivalent to months of therapy, you save time and money on your mental health treatment.

Research on intensive and online EMDR is positive
EMDR Intensives are an interactive personal workshop for trauma healing where we focus on goals for mental health and emotional wellbeing. Learn more here.
Intensive application of trauma-focused therapy seems to be well tolerated in clients with PTSD symptoms, enabling faster symptom reduction with similar (or even better!) results, while reducing the risk that clients drop out of treatment prematurely. Learn more here and here.
Intensive EMDR treatment is feasible and is indicative of reliable improvement in PTSD symptoms in a very short time frame. Learn more here. An intensive program using EMDR therapy is a potentially safe and effective treatment alternative for complex PTSD. Learn more here.
In the weekly model of therapy, as much as 10 minutes (or more!) is spent at the beginning and end of each session checking in and closing down, leaving you only about 30 minutes each week to actually focus on the issues at hand. If you have current concerns going on each week, you may never get to what brought you into therapy in the first place.
Research shows that online EMDR works just as well as in-person EMDR therapy. Virtual EMDR Intensives in Ohio save valuable time because we don’t spend so much time each week: checking in at the beginning of each session, addressing current crises and concerns (rather than what brought you to treatment in the first place), focusing on stabilizing and coping skills, and closing down at the end of each session. Plus, you don’t have to wait in traffic or worry about who’s in the waiting room with you.
Your customized EMDR workbook gives you valuable tools & time to prepare for your Intensive.
Customized EMDR workbooks are reserved for clients choosing EMDR Therapy Intensives at Sea Glass Counseling and Consultation. Most clients find that their workbook adds significant value to their experience and enhances the work they do in their EMDR Intensive.
Your EMDR Therapy Intensive workbook allows you to:
connect with your EMDR therapist prior to us working together
accelerate faster through earlier phases of EMDR Therapy, giving you more space and time to get to reprocessing phases during your EMDR Intensive sessions
have something tangible to bring with you to future therapy sessions after our work together is completed
have a memento of the hard work you’ve put into your own emotional healing and wellbeing
Your workbook will be sent to you prior to your session, and you’ll have at least 1 week to complete it. Send your completed workbook back to your EMDR therapist for their review. We’ll use this as a guide to create an even more personalized EMDR Intensive experience for you and accelerate your EMDR therapy treatment.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is a complex condition that can manifest in various ways. While many people associate PTSD with flashbacks and nightmares, there are several unexpected symptoms that often go unrecognized.
Like many other mental health conditions, depression and burnout can manifest with overlapping symptoms, which is why it’s important to connect with a licensed mental health professional to help you clarify whether your low emotional state is due to depression or burnout - and whether you’re dealing with a mental health condition, or occupational hazard that could lead to one.
You thought everything was going perfectly, but then out of nowhere, everything came crashing down. You're having a hard time believing this could be your reality.
EMDR Intensives are powerful, transformative sessions that can help you start to heal quickly and experience relief and results faster than possible with traditional weekly therapy. My intensive clients often can leave our EMDR intensive sessions feeling lighter and more hopeful than they’ve felt in years.
It’s probably safe to assume you have a basic overview of what EMDR is—an action-oriented, results-driven therapy that works to heal the damage traumatic experiences leave behind.
