Brainspotting + IFS trauma intensives
Brainspotting and IFS Therapy Intensives allow for faster results with more flexibility than weekly therapy.
Transform how you interact with your past in a matter of days, even if you’ve struggled with its effects for years or decades.
Heal from your past: quickly, deeply + effectively
trauma intensives and the uniquely powerful combination of brainspotting + IFS can make possible in one deeply healing journey what may take years in weekly therapy.
How do Intensives with IFS + Brainspotting offer the ultimate trauma-healing experience?
Trauma Intensives, using Brainspotting and IFS to process and heal, have been designed to facilitate faster healing meaning you can feel better in days, not years.
You don’t have the time to devote to weekly therapy sessions
You are dedicated to transforming your relationship with the past and committed to healing but weekly sessions are a challenge for you.
Timings pressure are real and perhaps your work, travel, family and caring responsibilities mean that regular sessions are not going to suit you in this season of your life.
Bespoke trauma intensives, using Brainspotting and IFS, are intended to to accelerate your healing process and finally shift the traumatic experiences so they no longer hold you back from the life you want to love.
By increasing the amount of concentrated time we can spend together, you can achieve months’ or even years’ worth of progress in just a few special, you-centred and focused days.
…yet You’re still seeking deep, transformative healing that lasts
By spending an intensive therapy experience together, we can completely maximise our time and get to the heart of the trauma experiences that are causing you pain, stuckness, relationship + work issues and that are impacting your daily life.
We won’t need to use up precious time getting situated and catching up, settling into sessions or updating on where you are since the last session.
This means we will effortlessly shift into the healing zone, where we can firmly place your energies into transforming how you feel. We’ll do this by targeting specific traumatic memories or events to process, utilising proven healing methods and rituals and by integrating these into your overall awareness and understanding of your experiences and your past.
Ultimately your intensive will creating a sacred and protected space for your personalised healing and for you to connect with the ‘real you’, leaving you with a feeling of peace, love, compassion and excitement to move into the future and new possibilities.
why a Brainspotting + IFS trauma therapy intensive?
Because…
You want to heal from a traumatic experience or relationship that is still impacting you years or decades on.
You want more than analysis, talk therapy or techniques that don’t translate into change.
You want to instead experience deeply therapeutic, healing work that will change your life in a matter of days and will allow you to listen to your body as well as your mind.
You have done Brainspotting and/or IFS therapy before and found it powerful (or you have heard about their power) - and would like to experience this in an intensive, super-impactful format where your healing is centred and prioritised.
You are preparing for a major life transition or life event (e.g. getting married, having your first child, becoming an empty nester, taking a career leap or moving abroad or to a new city) and don’t want the traumatic experiences that you’ve carried this far to hold you back as your take your next steps.
You’d like to carve out a retreat-style time to focus solely on you, your healing and your future in a safe, supportive and focused container.
You’re ready to block out a targeted and concentrated period of time from your schedule to prioritise YOU and to experience intense and effective healing wherever you are in the world.
Perhaps…
You have a regular therapist (maybe IFS, Brainspotting or another modality) but you feel in need of a more intensive and deep experience that will bring healing to you faster and which still uses the most up-to-date and effective tools for healing body and mind.
You are a working or stay-at-home parent, an entrepreneur with a team to consider, a professional who travels a lot with work, a teacher for whom term-times are full on, or you have another reason why a weekly therapy session feels hard to fit in right now.
Your schedule is very demanding meaning the idea of a weekly therapy appointment ends up feeling more overwhelming than supportive in this season.
You’re understandably impatient to heal and you really want results to come fast.
you’re in the right place.
Wait, what is A trauma intensive with IFS + Brainspotting anyway?
A focused and bespoke trauma Intensive offers the chance to schedule a multi-hour period of focused time to explore a specific issue so that you can gain healing and resolution quickly and so that you can change the way it is affecting you in the day-to-day.
Being immersed and held in your own specialised trauma intensive over a number of days, and that utilises the most powerful, up-to-date and renowned processing and healing tools of Internal Family Systems and Brainspotting, means that healing, even from very old wounds and traumatic experiences, comes quickly, deeply and sustainably.
We will use the holistic, powerful and increasingly popular tools of IFS and Brainspotting to make your intensive as effective as possible. The results given by these tools when used separately and in combination over a concentrated period of time can be immense and transformative.
Trauma Intensives can be done over 3-6 consecutive days or with a short gap between sessions. Packages are outlined below but other options can also be created with your exact needs in mind (wait-lists may apply and in-person experiences in SE Asia are more limited).

Pre-Intensive workbook
If you are not an existing client, you will be sent a personalised workbook to complete prior to our session. This offers practical information and a comprehensive, personalised set of pre-assessments. It also enables me to situate myself in your story, gather information and ask for any required clarification prior to us meeting together.

Pre-intensive
Session
This 90 minute session will take place 1-3 weeks before your intensive session. During this time, we will set goals, consider your concerns and questions and assess the right pathway for you with your intensive experience.

trauma Intensive
Session
Your trauma intensive will run between 9 and 24 hours depending on your needs, the experience(s) you’re focusing on and your personal choice. The intensive will be customised based on the pre-session and your personalised workbook content.
This deep-dive session is fully curated to your needs to maximise the transformation and healing and the tools of Brainspotting and IFS will be applied throughout in an intuitive, integrated and effective way.
I will always check in on you during our time, in order to attune to the intensity levels you are experiencing and how things feel for you.

Post-Intensive Follow-Up
After the session, we will book in a follow-up session of 90 minutes. This session will involve processing time as well as accountability so that the healing becomes embedded in your system.

With the unique process, tools (Brainspotting and IFS) and experience offered by intensives, you can rest easy, knowing that transformations are likely to be much faster and deeper - with benefits felt from the first session rather than the years (or longer) that people often report with traditional weekly sessions talk therapy.

With a focused and prioritised period of time dedicated to your Trauma Intensive, those ‘practical’ reasons disappear, as you take your first empowered step towards a beautiful future of peace and balance.

Other Trauma intensive questions? I’ve got answers.
-
IFS is an evidence-based psychotherapeutic modality that sees every person as multiple, with a set of ‘parts’ that have their own thoughts, beliefs and feelings.
By getting to know these parts, you can develop a transformative and new understanding of your inner world. This brings harmony as you are able to heal each part of difficult past experiences. You can read more about IFS here.
-
Brainspotting therapy works by directly tapping into the brain's autonomic and limbic systems, located within the central nervous system and finding traumas as they link to where you look, gaze or fixate with your eyes.
As a therapeutic method it can offer incredibly powerful processing and healing as well as deep attunement with yourself, guided by your trained Brainspotting therapist, that can continue far beyond the sessions themselves.
-
We can talk about your suitability on a free consult. If a weekly commitment is hard for you right now, but you’re keen to make progress fast, then an intensive approach could be an ideal and effective way for you to successfully process and heal from your trauma.
-
Research shows that both IFS and Brainspotting are effective in working with trauma, anxiety, relationship issues, stressful childhoods, perfectionism and much more.
Many of my trauma intensive clients struggle with toxic families of origin, workaholism, grief and loss, over-achievement and self-doubt. Trauma intensives (and the integration of both IFS and Brainspotting) can get to the root of these issues far more quickly than traditional talk therapy.
-
As well as attending the initial and pre-session calls, you will be asked to complete a short pre-session workbook so that I can situate myself in your story and maximise our time together.
