What Is an Intensive?

An intensive is an immersive counseling experience that compresses the healing work of weeks or months into one to three focused days.
This format allows clients to address deeper issues, gain clarity, and experience breakthrough in a safe, supportive space—without the distractions of daily life.

Each intensive is custom-tailored to your goals and may include:

  • Extended therapy sessions (90 minutes to several hours per day)

  • Guided reflection and rest between sessions

  • Optional Equine-Assisted Therapy

  • Optional Christian faith integration for those who desire it

  • Resources and follow-up recommendations for continued growth
