Episode 27 Who Is A Good Fit for an Intensive - And Who Isn’t?
Manage episode 387945133 series 3480422
Episode Description:
Welcome back to Future Template Parent Podcast. In this week’s episode, I address common misconceptions about intensives, including that they're only for clients with severe trauma, and provide reasons why almost every client can be a good fit. I also address therapists' fears about offering intensives, and I argue that intensives are not meant to be a "graduation" from therapy but rather a way to provide focused treatment.
Listen in to hear more on the challenges of dissociative clients needing to be a better fit for intensives, share personal experiences, and highlight the importance of adapting the intensive approach to the individual client's needs. This week’s episode will surely spark your interest in EMDR Intensives. I also discuss why offering intensives during this time of year is an excellent choice for you, the therapist. You can make more money and have more time during the season when you need both the most!
So, if you're an EMDR therapist looking for balance in your practice and guidance on navigating the complexities of finding clients for intensives that are a good fit, tune in to this episode now!
Topics covered in this episode:
- Client suitability for intensive therapy sessions
- Intensive EMDR can be used for almost any mental health issue, not just significant trauma
- Using EMDR intensives with dissociative clients
- Educating clients about intensive therapy
- How offering intensives during the holiday season is the best choice for therapists as well

“ I have consulted with therapists who just aren't sure if they're going to be able to find good fit clients for intensives. And of course, my response is almost always well; almost everyone's a good fit.” - Carolyn
