Start your healing journey

EMDR intensives compress months of weekly therapy into a focused stretch of time — designed for people ready to move through something significant without waiting it out one hour at a time.

EMDR intensive therapy in Western Kentucky 

A few days can shift what years haven't.

start the healing process

You want a clinician who's fully prepared for what you're bringing in


Weekly therapy has felt too slow, too fragmented, or hasn't fit your life


You can give yourself the time and space to be fully present


You're emotionally ready to engage in sustained, focused work

You have a specific experience or pattern you want to work through

An intensive might be a good fit if. . .

Weekly therapy works for plenty of people, but it's not the only way. Maybe you've started EMDR and the once-a-week pace feels like you're losing ground between sessions.

Maybe you're carrying something specific and want to face it head-on rather than slowly. Maybe your life — work, travel, family — doesn't bend easily around a standing appointment.

An intensive is built for those moments: a focused stretch of time, a clinician fully prepared for what you're bringing, and space to actually move through it.

A note on how we operate: We are a private-pay practice, allowing for more personalized, in-depth care without the limitations of insurance. We’ll walk you through your options so you can choose what feels right for you.

When weekly isn't the rhythm you need.

2-day intensive

preparing for your intensive

From the moment you schedule to the moment you arrive, here's what to expect.

How it works

A consultation with Lisa or Christa to talk through the format, your goals, and whether an intensive is the right next step.

Reach out

 Paperwork must be completed at least two weeks before your intensive so your clinician has time to review.

Paperwork

A 50-minute session with your clinician to answer questions, walk through your schedule, and review what you've shared.

Pre-intensive appointment

For two- and three-day intensives, you only need to bring you. Sessions, breaks, and meals are built into the experience.

Arrive

A 50-minute follow-up after your intensive ends, designed to support integration and talk through what comes next.

Post-intensive interview

Mayfield is where this work happens. Our office there is set up to hold the intensive experience from start to finish — sessions, rest, optional housing — all in one place, so you're not shuttling between worlds while you're trying to do something hard.

A space built for this work.

All two- and three-day intensives are held at our Mayfield location. Clients only need to bring themselves — everything is coordinated for you. Six-hour intensives for existing clients can be arranged at either office.

Because the better picture your clinician has going in, the more focused and useful your time together can be. We'd rather front-load that work so the actual intensive is as productive as possible. Most clients break the paperwork into several sittings — give yourself the time.

At least two weeks before your intensive begins. This gives your clinician adequate time to review everything and prepare for your specific work.

A 50-minute conversation with your clinician — covered in the cost of your intensive — where we answer questions, review your paperwork together, and walk through the schedule so nothing about the experience feels unknown when you arrive.

Deposits are non-refundable. They secure your scheduling and reserve your clinician's time. If you need to reschedule, please reach out to us as early as possible.

Yes — CareCredit is accepted for all intensive formats.

Through this process, I’ve found clarity, healing, and peace. Most importantly, EMDR opened the door for me to truly understand and believe how deeply the Lord loves me—as His child, fully known and fully accepted.

"EMDR therapy has truly changed my life. It helped me break free from the lies my brain was feeding me for years."

After experiencing some difficult circumstances postpartum, EMDR has been helpful in my healing journey. Addison has been amazing at helping me understand this process and how it works and how our brains are created for renewing and healing through both a biblical and psychological/biological perspective.

"Finding a good match for a therapist is tough, and I gladly drive over an hour to my sessions because New Pathways continues to be so beneficial for me. "

You changed my life and impacted me in ways you will never know. Your support system combined with EMDR helped me learn that I am enough and that I do deserve a good life helped me through all the hard times. You were my best friend when no one else was and I will cherish you forever.

"I literally owe everything to you and you are the total reason of who I am today. I know God is the reason for my healing and the total 360 of my life but so are you. "

EMDR therapy has been extremely beneficial to empowering us to face the difficult situation we are in. These sessions are intense, but God is using New Pathways and EMDR to heal the brokenness and to ease the pain of the past. Thank you, New Pathways, and we know God will bless you for your service.
