Deep Healing from Trauma
When a traumatic even happens, it can leave lasting impacts on the mind and body. Traumatic experiences interrupt normal cognitive and emotional processes in the nervous system. Lacking proper processing of the trauma, the mind and body can experience continuously heightened levels of tension and/or numbness, re-activation of traumatic stress responses, and changes in personality, identity, or perspective. With effective treatment, trauma's impact gets cleared and re-processed by the nervous system, allowing for a shift into deep healing, a sense of peace and wellness, and post-traumatic growth.
Our Trauma Healing Intensive combines the physical, mental, emotional, and transformational elements of trauma therapy into 3 days of deep and relieving inner work, allowing our participants to find their healing quicker and with a lasting strength and impact.
Intensive Therapy for Rapid Relief of Trauma
The Trauma Healing Intensive at Alcove Mental Health is a small-group deep-work therapeutic experience designed to create a safe, supportive, structured experience of connection. From this point of connection, participants are able to resonate with each other's experiences, build a sense of safety, and find support for creating strong breakthroughs in healing traumatic experiences and PTSD. Our Trauma Healing Intensive will provide you with 9+ hours of deep therapeutic work within the span of a few days. Sessions are held online, from the comfort of your home.
Preparation:
Intake and Handbook for Trauma Healing
The work begins with an online intake session held one-on-one with your therapist the week before your intensive group experience takes place. In this intake session your therapist will assess your needs, develop your treatment plan, and prepare you for a personalized deep-work experience. You will receive our Handbook for Trauma Healing which will provide you with knowledge, skills, and exercises to get your mind and body equipped for healing ahead of the small-group work.
Then it's time for the deep work.
The following week, you will return for the Trauma Healing Intensive itself - virtual group sessions that last three hours, three days in a row. Our extended length sessions allow powerful work to continue uninterrupted, offering you more therapeutic benefit per hour. Your therapist will guide the group into discussions, experiences, exercises, and perspective shifts that restructure the mind and engage the body in resolving the impacts of trauma.
The following week, a online follow up session with your therapist one-on-one will walk through your personal breakthroughs and the resulting impacts and changes happening in your life as a result. Your therapist will also help you develop a powerful plan for achieving and maintaining that sense of freedom and relief long after the conclusion of your intensive experience.

What Makes Our Trauma Healing Intensives Special:
Accelerated Healing
Therapy intensives compress weeks of therapeutic work into a faster time-frame of relief. Without all the starts and stops of weekly 50-minute sessions, a stronger depth of work can be maintained for longer in a single day.
The Power of Connection
The experience of giving and receiving compassion is endlessly healing. Supportive work strengthens new perspectives and eases our sense of suffering and isolation. Supporting others moves us beyond recovery and into post-traumatic growth
Holistic and Integrated
Interventions incorporate many evidence-based approaches including cognitive processing therapy, somatic techniques, guided imagery, narrative therapy, mutual support, psychoeducation, parts work, and more to address mind, body, and identity.

These experiences are unique, life-changing, and incredibly personal. I've crafted these sessions with you in mind. The clients who book these sessions are people just like you who are tired of suffering from the weight of unbearable past traumas, exhausted from the work of trying to "get better", and desperate for a chance to finally feel right within themselves and within their world.
I am truly looking forward to working with you. My intention is to help as many people as possible and to create powerful healing experiences for every future participant in this group. I bring my full intention and presence into these intensive therapy experiences to create breakthrough changes in emotional distress, identity, and life narrative. I will help you discover your unshakeable value and worth, recover your sense of safety, belonging, and wellbeing, and reach into your inner experience to clear trauma and rewire your mind for wellness.
