Immersion Therapy Sessions

Immersive therapy allows you to delve into your unique story and understand your habitual and core thinking that shapes your current life experiences. EMDR can be an essential part of immersive therapy and is a highly effective tool to resolve trauma, PTSD, depression, and anxiety. The accelerated pace of treatment in an Immersive makes it a cost and time-efficient way to make progress and is a wise investment in yourself that pays for itself.

Four to six hour immersion

During the four—to six-hour Immersion session, we collaborate to reduce the impact of a single traumatic event or a limiting belief system and help you regain the ability to engage in your life fully. This immersion session is an effective way to alter your perspective on yourself and your role in the world, which can lead to a healthier mindset.

We all have a story to tell. Unfortunately, some of our stories have tragic episodes that have shaped us and left us with painful memories that are hard to endure. Clearing the Story Immersion is a program that challenges and changes your perspective on your life and helps you to create a better narrative of who you are today. The program includes EMDR therapy, a significant component of this immersion, along with other tools and resources to help you navigate and heal. The duration of your immersion will be determined based on your individual needs and goals, which will be discussed during your consultation call.

HOW DO I SCHEDULE AN IMMERSION?
Immersion therapy begins with a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. This is not a therapy session; it's an opportunity to ensure that an immersion session suits your current needs.  Once this is determined, we will discuss the duration of your immersion to customize it to fit your therapeutic goals.  At this time, we will schedule a one-hour intake session and your four-hour or multiple-day immersion.  A 50% deposit will be collected to hold the immersion date. Any questions that you may have can be answered at this time.

HOW DO I KNOW IF AN IMMERSION IS NOT A GOOD FIT FOR ME?
An Immersion would not be appropriate if you are actively having thoughts of suicide, self-harming, or harming others or have been diagnosed with a Personality Disorder.  An Immersion is not a recommended if you are active in an addiction to drugs or alcohol. Participating in an Immersion Therapy session requires a minimum of four months of dedicated recovery work after completing treatment.

WHAT IF I ALREADY HAVE A COUNSELOR?
An Immersion can supplement therapy that you are already receiving from your current counselor. If your current counselor does not specialize in trauma work or does not provide EMDR, an immersion can be a helpful addition to your treatment. Immersion can also be useful in couples therapy, especially when one partner requires additional treatment to aid progress in couples therapy.

WHAT IF MY SESSION IS COMPLETED EARLIER THAN THE DAYS THAT I SCHEDULED FOR MY IMMERSION SESSION?
During our consultation, you'll be given enough time to cover your stated issues when your immersion is scheduled. However, to provide comfort for scheduling multiple days, after the first day, if it is agreed to end early, you will only be charged for the time used, rounded up to the half day.

WHAT IS NOT INCLUDED IN AN IMMERSION THERAPY SESSION?
If you are coming from out of town to participate in an intensive lodging, transportation, and meals arenot included.  Upon request a list of accommodations and local restaurants is available.

WHAT IF I NEED TO CANCEL?
A 50% deposit is required to secure the Immersion date. If your start date is within two weeks from the day you're booked and you cancel, your deposit is non-refundable. Otherwise, you can request in writing a refund of 50% of your deposit for your canceled date. Or you may reschedule your session once. If you cancel again after rescheduling, the deposit will be forfeited.

DO YOU CONDUCT TELEMEDICINE FOR IMMERSION THERAPY SESSIONS?
Immersion therapy sessions are provided only in person and telemedicine is not offered.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN AFTER MY IMMERSION THERAPY SESSION IS COMPLETED?
After completing the Immersion Session, it's normal for things to take a few days to settle in. You may feel tired and your sleep may be slightly impacted, but this should improve over the following week. Some people report experiencing a change in their perspectives and how they manage their emotional experiences. There's often a sense of renewed hope after the session. If you feel like another immersion session may be helpful, we can discuss it during your follow-up call.
