Therapy Intensives

Therapy intensives are for individuals and family members who love someone with an addiction. Through education, skills building, and emotional processing, we will work together to find a path toward greater hope and healing.

Intensives are for people who feel stuck in the same painful cycles and need clarity now, not months from now.
Intensives with me are held over one full day or two half days.

One-Day Intensive

What is it? - A therapy package that includes a brief phone consultation, assessment session, full-day intensive therapy session (6 hours), and a follow-up session.

During this intensive, we work together to:

  • Assess how addiction has impacted your emotional well-being, relationships, and daily functioning

  • Identify behavioral and relational patterns that contribute to ongoing stress, anxiety, or reactivity

  • Develop effective communication strategies that reduce conflict and emotional escalation

  • Establish clear, compassionate, and sustainable boundaries that support psychological health

  • Reduce symptoms of anxiety, hypervigilance, and emotional exhaustion

  • Increase coping skills, self-efficacy, and alignment with personal values

This is not an intervention and it is not about forcing change. Instead, it is about helping you respond in ways that are calmer, more effective, and more aligned with who you want to be, while increasing the likelihood of healthier choices over time.

Loving someone with an addiction can feel overwhelming, exhausting, and lonely.
Many families find themselves stuck in painful cycles of arguing, rescuing, setting boundaries that don’t stick, or constantly wondering “Am I helping or making things worse?”

This Therapy Intensive is a structured, short-term psychotherapy experience grounded in evidence-based approaches, including Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) and behavioral therapy principles. Treatment focuses on supporting the mental health, emotional regulation, and relational functioning of the family member seeking care, not on treating the person with the substance use disorder.
