Enjoyed this episode? Send me a text with your biggest takeaway!Welcome back to the Future Template Podcast! After a week off due to a change in Admin, I am happy to announce that I am back and ready to get into it! If you are curious about EMDR Intensive Therapy and its impact on your practice, you are in the right place. In today's episode, I argue that a strong relational connection can be created in a shorter-term therapeutic relationship despite concerns that it's too short to establish safety. This week's episode also explores how a relational solid connection can be created in a shorter-term therapeutic relationship like intensive EMDR, despite concerns that an intensive format is too short to establish relational safety.Throughout the episode, I will cover ways to create a sense of safety and connection in intensive therapy sessions, emphasizing the importance of setting boundaries and respecting the client's time and financial commitment. As well as why you should prioritize creating a unique and personalized experience for each client, including offering personalized touches and closing rituals to make them feel valued and appreciated. You are surely going to learn and absorb so much information that you will be able to utilize in your practice! So, make sure to take advantage of this informative episode. Topics covered in this episode:EMDR Trauma therapy and attachment securityEMDR Therapy sessions and boundariesCarolyn challenges the idea that only single-incident trauma clients can benefit from intensive therapyCreating a safe and connected therapeutic space for clientsCarolyn highlights the potential for rupture and repair to occur in intensive sessions and how the model of the intensive creates a frame of safety for the client.The workbook & how it provides safety and trust by allowing clients to give a complete history of themselves at their own paceIntensive EMDR therapy sessions and burnout preventionThe value of intensives in addressing burnout and how charging what you need to set can help.Connect with Carolyn:Website: www.futuretemplateparent.com Instagram: @futuretemplateparentRelated episodes:Ep 18 Transforming EMDR Intensives With The Client WorkbookEp 15 Client Success Story: How EMDR Intensive Therapy Transformed Allie Kidd's PracticeEp 13 The Real Experience of Being an EMDR Therapist & a ParentQuote:“You're not someone's therapist for life nor should be expected you have to be nor should clients expect that we will be” -  Carolyn.
