Custom trauma therapy intensives

This questionnaire can help us determine if an intensive is right for you. After completing the form, we will schedule a brief phone consultation. During your consultation, one of our therapists will answer any questions you have about intensives and help you decide if it is the right fit for you.

If you’ve encountered barriers in traditional therapy or wish to explore issues that may require more than a weekly conversation, our intensive sessions offer an ideal solution.

Our intensives include years of training that is of the highest quality and research backed to provide remarkable results. Although our time together may be short term, we prioritize understanding you as an individual, ensuring that your sessions are what you need.

Before embarking on your intensive journey, you'll undergo a comprehensive series of screeners and/or assessments, helping us pinpoint the perfect format to cater to your requirements. Also included is a personalized workbook to help plan your intensive. You may be asked to complete certain exercises prior to the intensive to help you prepare and maximize the benefit of the treatment as well as post Intensive exercises to support your continued progress.

These assessments provide valuable insights that would typically require numerous therapy sessions to uncover, enabling us to hit the ground running and work toward your goals. We invest significant effort in preparing you for these sessions and collaboratively define clear objectives to ensure your intensive counseling experience is maximally beneficial.

There are half day and full day options available. A half day is 3 hours in total and a full day is 6 hours in total with lunch included.

Concluding intensives you can choose to have a final post-intensive session to process and integrate the work done during the intensive OR continue with individual sessions as needed.

Canvas specializes in creating personalized intensives for both adults and adolescents (ages 16+) who are ready and motivated to process past traumas. In order to help clients heal through intensive work, we may incorporate any of the following modalities that we are trained in:

• Trauma Sensitive Informed Care

• Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR)

• Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)

• Internal Family Systems (IFS) 

• Somatic Experiencing (SE) 

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

• Solution Focused

If there is a specific modality you would prefer us to focus on during your intensive, let us know.

To provide more tailored intensives, if you would like, we can collaborate with other providers you may be seeing from your primary therapist to massage therapist to chiropractor, etc. Please don’t hesitate to reach out via email or phone for a personalized discussion about how our intensives might align with what you envision.

Additional therapy options you can request: walk & talk, sand tray/expressive arts, equine, cranial sacral therapy and more.

Canvas Counseling and Wellness PLLC is not in-network with insurance, so your investment in therapy will be an out-of-pocket payment. At your request, we can provide a special receipt called a Superbill which includes important information about the service provided. You can then submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement but there are no guarantees.

Prior to starting sessions, we recommend you talk with your insurance to find out if they reimburse/cover out-of-network services and what service/CPT codes they cover.
