Your personal therapy intensive

Sharon Nicholson, online trauma therapist UK

Brainspotting - anxiety, trauma, narcissistic abuse

A focused, compassionate space to reconnect with yourself

Some people come to therapy because things are falling apart , others come because things look “fine” on the outside, but inside, something feels deeply unsettled.


You may have left a relationship, built a life that works, achieved, coped, kept going, and yet your body remains tense, your sense of self feels blurred, your inner world feels quieter than it once was.


Therapy intensives are for people who are ready to pause - not because they are broken, but because they no longer want to live from a place of survival alone.



What is an intensive?

A therapy intensive offers extended, dedicated time to work at depth, rather than spreading the process over months of weekly sessions.


Instead of shorter, weekly appointments, we meet online for three-hour sessions over two days.


This creates enough space for your nervous system to settle, for protective parts to soften, and for deeper processing to unfold naturally - without rushing or interruption.


Many people find that this format allows them to access layers of experience that are difficult to reach in shorter sessions, especially when the harm was relational, ongoing, or subtle.


An intensive is not about “doing more therapy faster”.


It’s about having enough time.



Why people choose an intensive

Most people who choose an intensive are not new to self-reflection or personal work. They often arrive here because:


  • They’ve tried weekly therapy and felt something remained unfinished


  • They understand what happened, but their body hasn’t caught up


  • They feel stuck in patterns of self-doubt, vigilance, or disconnection


  • They want focused, contained support rather than starting and stopping


  • They are ready to prioritise their healing with intention and care


For people impacted by coercive control, betrayal, narcissistic abuse, or developmental trauma, progress can stall when sessions end just as something meaningful begins. Intensives offer continuity, depth, and a sense of being fully held in the work.


How we work together

Your intensive is personalised and paced carefully, drawing on Brainspotting therapy and parts-informed work.


You don’t need to retell your story in detail or have the right language for what happened. We listen instead to what your nervous system is already holding - sensations, emotions, images, impulses, and the quiet signals of parts that learned how to protect you.


Brainspotting allows us to work directly with the body’s held responses, supporting processing without forcing insight or re-living. 


Parts-informed therapy helps us meet inner conflict, shame, and self-criticism with curiosity and compassion rather than judgement.


Everything happens in collaboration.

Nothing is pushed.

Your system sets the pace.


This intensive may be right for you if:

  • You have experienced betrayal, coercive control, or emotionally manipulative relationships


  • You feel disconnected from who you are or what you want now


  • You carry shame or guilt about how you survived or adapted


  • You notice your body remains tense, alert, or exhausted


  • You feel ready to work at depth, with focus and continuity


  • You can stay present with strong emotions without becoming overwhelmed


  • You have grounding resources and some support available after the intensive


  • Many people choose an intensive because they sense, quietly but clearly, that something deeper is ready to be met.


When an intensive may not be the right fit

Intensives are not suitable for everyone, and that matters. 


Weekly therapy may be a better option if you:


  • Feel easily overwhelmed or struggle to regulate emotions


  • Experience frequent dissociation without awareness or containment


  • Are currently in crisis or unsafe relational situations


  • Are early in trauma processing or new to therapy


  • Do not have support or stability following an intensive


There is no “better” or “worse” choice here. Slower, steadier work is often exactly what a nervous system needs.


How the intensive works

steps to your deeper healing

Sharon Nicholson Trauma Therapist UK

Relational Trauma, Narcissistic Abuse, Profound Loss

  • We begin with the 90-minute initial consultation, to explore what's happening for you, whether an intensive could be right for you, or if ongoing sessions may suit you better


  • If you're new to Brainspotting, or still unsure about an intensive, you are welcome to book a 90-minute therapy session in the first instance.


  • The intensive is personalised and delivered online via Zoom, over two days (3 hours each day), with a 90-minute follow-up session 1–2 weeks later to integrate what emerges


  • Bilateral music can be played through headphones to support your processing  - this is optional and always guided by your pace


  • This intensive format is not for everyone, it is best suited to clients who are ready to go deeper than weekly sessions, have some emotional resources in place, and want a structured, focused way to shift stuck patterns

By the end of the intensive, clients often notice:


  • Feeling lighter, freer, or more settled in their body


  • Greater clarity about old patterns and how to break them


  • Increased alignment with who they truly are and who they want to become


  • Tools to manage triggers, overwhelm, and relational challenges


  • A sense of confidence, of being more grounded, and possibility for the future
