Recognizing that some families face urgent challenges or wish to see rapid progress, we’ve crafted a concentrated therapy offering that delivers substantial support over a short period. This innovative approach is offered by Brooke Garren, LCSW includes 15 hours of dedicated therapy, often completed in the clients home, is tailored to meet the unique needs of each family, especially those in crisis or seeking immediate improvement in their dynamics.

Why Choose Intensive Therapy Experiences?

Our Intensive Therapy Experiences are an ideal solution for families looking for an alternative to traditional therapy approaches.

For families facing acute challenges or distress, waiting is not an option. Our intensive format provides swift, targeted intervention to stabilize and support your family through crisis.

If you’re eager to see significant changes without the prolonged timeline of standard therapy sessions, our intensives offer a condensed schedule designed to achieve quicker results.

By conducting sessions in your home, our therapists can directly observe and address the specific environmental factors and routines contributing to dysregulation and distress, allowing for more tailored and effective interventions.

Starting with a thorough one-hour intake to understand your family’s needs, followed by 12 hours of in-depth, in-home therapy, and concluding with two one-hour follow-up sessions, our program ensures a comprehensive approach to fostering lasting change.

Our Program Structure

  1. Consultation (30 minutes): This in depth consultation will assess the families fit for this therapeutic approach.
  2. Initial Intake (1 hour): A deep dive into your family’s needs, challenges, and goals to tailor the intensive experience effectively.
  3. In-Home Therapy Sessions (12 hours): Spread over one week, these sessions allow our therapists to work within your family’s natural environment, identifying and addressing issues at their root. This immersive approach offers insights into daily interactions, communication patterns, and potential triggers that might not be as evident in an office setting.
  4. Follow-Up Sessions (2 hours): After the intensive in-home therapy, these sessions help consolidate gains, address any emerging issues, and ensure the sustainability of positive changes.

This means we recognize the unique ways in which neurodivergent individuals perceive, interact with, and contribute to the world. Our therapists are trained to understand the nuances of neurodiversity, ensuring that therapy is not about “fixing” you or your loved one but about supporting you in living your best life, honoring your neurodivergent identity.

What to Expect in Individual Therapy:

  • Session #1 – Initial Assessment: A comprehensive evaluation to understand your needs, strengths, and therapy goals. This is typically one 60 minute session but can be broken down into 2 or more sessions if we are unable to finish in just one session.
  • Sessions 2 – 6+ – Continued Assessment, Rapport Building & Collaborative Goal Setting: During these next few weeks you and your therapist will focus on building rapport and getting to know each other. Research suggests that rapport is the biggest determining factor in theraputic outcomes. We do not rush this phase! During this time you will also work together with your therapist, to define what success looks like for you.
  • Customized Strategies: Whether it’s coping mechanisms, communication skills, or self-advocacy, we’ll explore strategies that work for you.
  • Ongoing Support: Regular sessions to reflect on progress, adjust goals, and address new challenges.
