Therapy Intensive FAQs

  • A Therapy Intensive is a concentrated and focused therapeutic experience designed to address specific issues or challenges at an accelerated pace.

    Unlike traditional therapy, which might take place weekly over several months, a therapy intensive typically spans multiple hours in one day or over a few consecutive days. This format allows you to dive deep into your concerns, benefiting from sustained attention and momentum.

    For professional women juggling numerous responsibilities, a therapy intensive can provide a dedicated space to process feelings around challenging life circumstances & transitions without the prolonged wait of weekly sessions.

    Therapy Intensives provide a powerful way to offer you the space and time to experience deep, immersive healing at an accelerated pace.

    At Chicago Modern Therapy, our Intensives offer a personalized deep-dive into the heart of your concerns, providing a sacred space to explore, understand, and navigate the way through your unique circumstances.

    This isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach; it’s a bespoke experience, tailored to your specific needs & desires.

    It’s about delving into your individual story, unraveling the complexities, and laying a foundation for meaningful change in a way that works best for you.

    Once we’ve decided together that the Intensive process is a great fit for you and what you’d like to address, we’ll schedule the intensive sessions.

    Our Intensive Framework is actually a series of at least 3 separate sessions.

    1. Our Pre-Intensive Intake, 50-90 min
    2. The Intensive Session(s), typically 3-4 hr blocks
    3. The Post-Intensive Follow-Up, 50-90 min


    Currently, the Intensive takes place virtually, through a HIPAA compliant platform.

    Within this immersive experience, you’ll have access to tools & insights to reconnect with your authentic self & emerge with a renewed sense of balance & clarity.

  • Why Book A Therapy Intensive?

    Therapy Intensives offer a number of benefits:

    1. Rapid Progress: The condensed format of a therapy intensive can lead to breakthroughs and insights in a accelerated time frame.
    2. Dedicated Focus: It allows you to fully immerse yourself in the therapeutic process, reducing the distractions and interruptions that can come with weekly therapy.
    3. Flexibility: For busy professional women, committing to weekly sessions can be challenging. An intensive provides a way to prioritize mental health without the long-term time commitment.
    4. Tailored Approach: Intensives are often tailored to address specific issues, ensuring that the therapeutic interventions are relevant and effective for your unique situation.
    5. Boosted Momentum: The continuous engagement can create a momentum that might take weeks or months to achieve in traditional settings.
    6. Comprehensive Care: Intensives often incorporate various therapeutic modalities, offering a holistic approach to address your concerns.

    A therapy intensive is an investment in yourself, providing an opportunity to make meaningful changes in a condensed time-frame.

    Additional reasons to consider participating in a Therapy Intensive…

    You’ve recently experienced a life transition or are anticipating one (e.g. relationship, job, or relocation transitions). A therapy intensive allows you to explore your circumstances on a deeper level with the comfort of extended session time & a sanctioned “sacred space.” Processing the experience & clarifying next steps in an accelerated time frame can be a game changer for your mental health and your life circumstances.


    You’re feeling STUCK & you want clarity on next steps or you’re looking for a total re-set.


    You feel completely disconnected from yourself & your joy. In fact, you’re feeling exhausted, burned out or even bored. You want to reconnect with what actually matters to you & you feel a therapy intensive will allow you to create the sanctioned time & space to explore how to get there.


    You have a relationship challenge that requires you to dig deep with reflection, introspection & some solid strategizing. Your concern might be specifically tied to relationships at work, family dynamics, or setting boundaries. Perhaps your concern is about navigating the holidays, dealing with a recent (or not so recent) breakup, embracing singleness, learning the art of "letting go," or even diving back into the dating pool. Rest assured that the therapy intensive can offer you the benefit of deep reflection, introspection, and progress towards a strategy on navigating your concern moving forward.

    The options are literally endless and can be tailored to your specific concerns.


    When you want an immersive, “bespoke” therapy intensive, REACH OUT & begin this personalized journey back to self.

    We’d love to discuss how we can tailor this experience to you!

  • What can I expect from a therapy intensive?


    A therapy intensive is an immersive, focused approach to therapeutic work, typically condensed into a shorter time frame than traditional therapy sessions.

    Here's what you can expect logistically:

    Our Intensive Framework is actually a series of at least 3 separate sessions.

    1. Our Pre-Intensive Intake, 50-90 min

    2. The Intensive Session(s), typically 3-4 hr blocks

    3. The Post-Intensive Follow-Up, 50-90 min

    Currently, the Intensive takes place virtually, through a HIPAA compliant platform.

    Prior to the actual intensive session(s), we schedule an in-depth assessment to understand your history, needs, and goals, ensuring the intensive is tailored to YOU.

    Once we’re clear on what we’re going to address we meet for the intensive session(s). Given the extended period of time, we take short breaks each hour of the Intensive to ensure we attend to our comfort. The intensive, itself, may include verbal processing, along with other modalities that we’ve decided will be a good fit for you.

    After the Intensive, we’ll meet for a Follow-Up to ensure your sustained progress and to address any subsequent challenges.

    In terms of what you can expect, generally, with an intensive, you can expect:

    1. Depth: With extended session times, you'll dive deeper into issues, allowing for profound insights and breakthroughs.
    2. Efficiency: The condensed format can accelerate progress, often achieving in a few hours/days what might take months in traditional therapy.
    3. Personalized Attention: Intensives are tailored to your specific needs, ensuring that the therapy is highly relevant to your situation.
    4. Safe Environment: Given that the Intensive takes place virtually, you have control over your environment. You’d want to ensure that you have a setting that is designed to be a secure, confidential space where you can explore, reflect, and grow, uninterrupted.
    5. Expert Guidance: Intensives are facilitated by therapists with specialized training, providing you with expert support throughout.
    6. Holistic Approach: Intensives incorporate multiple therapeutic modalities, from talk therapy to experiential exercises, addressing both the mind and body.
    7. Actionable Strategies: If this is one of your specific goals, we’ll ensure that you’ll leave with several clear strategies and tools to continue the work and maintain progress post-intensive.
    8. Dedicated Time: Without the usual interruptions of daily life, you can fully immerse yourself in the therapeutic process.
    9. Follow-Up: As mentioned above, intensives include follow-up sessions or support to ensure sustained progress and to address any subsequent challenges.
