Can a Therapy Intensive Complement Weekly Therapy?
You do not necessarily have to choose between your current therapist and a therapy intensive. When there is a specific memory, trigger, betrayal, loss, or unresolved experience that needs focused attention, adjunctive ART can complement the meaningful work you are already doing in weekly therapy.

Adjunctive trauma therapy allows the client to receive focused trauma processing without ending their existing therapeutic relationship.
