In their words

Six more therapists, six practices

Coaching programs, a single strategy session, and clinical guidance for a first intensive. Different starting points, the same shift.

12-week coaching program

“Currently booked out with 3 day intensives through January.”

I completed Carolyn's 12 week coaching program to begin adding 3 day EMDR intensives into my practice last fall. A year later, I've completed one 3 day intensive each month (except for one) and am currently booked out with 3 day intensives through January (it's currently August).

Carolyn helped me build the confidence and skills necessary to restructure my therapy practice in a way that worked for me and my current life stage as a mom of 3 little ones. I also pursued becoming an EMDR consultant in training because of her, which I wouldn't have done otherwise, and I've been so fulfilled with this new way of challenging my brain. She has encouraged me to think even bigger and I'm now considering other ways to add additional income streams outside of 1:1 therapy. I would highly recommend Carolyn as a business coach and mentor!

Coaching and mentorship

“She challenges you to think bigger while still helping you turn that vision into something tangible.”

Working with Carolyn has been such a game changer for my practice. When I started, I felt unsure about how to integrate intensives and navigate the business side of things, but Carolyn provided the clarity, encouragement, and accountability I needed to move forward. She helped me create a vision for the practice I truly want and build a system that feels both sustainable and exciting.

One of the biggest shifts for me has been the confidence she's helped me build, not just in my business, but in the work I offer. She's encouraged me to network and connect with other professionals in a way that reminds me just how valuable this work is and the impact it can have for the people I serve.

I honestly don't think I would have taken many of these steps without her mentorship. She challenges you to think bigger while still helping you turn that vision into something tangible. I'm so grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend Carolyn to any therapist looking to grow their practice with more clarity, confidence, and intention.

Ongoing coaching

“Before working with Carolyn, I had tried other programs for setting up EMDR intensives but struggled to actually get them off the ground.”

I've worked with Carolyn for a couple of years on building my EMDR Intensive practice, and she is wonderful. In addition to providing practical clinical tools and guidance on setting up your intensive practice, she is incredibly supportive with the mindset work that is so important when making this kind of shift in your business.

Before working with Carolyn, I had tried other programs for setting up EMDR intensives but struggled to actually get them off the ground in my practice. Carolyn helped me get clear on how to structure my intensives, market them effectively, and work through the mindset shifts necessary to make the transition successful.

If you're considering an EMDR Intensive business coach or coaching program, I can't recommend Carolyn highly enough.

Coaching program

“What meant the most, though, was feeling personally seen.”

The coaching program Carolyn offers was really awesome. It helped me think out loud, re-prioritize, and reinforce and validate what I already knew. Carolyn is so good at validating us. She truly has the skills. What meant the most, though, was feeling personally seen, not just me, but the work I do and the clients I see. She held space for that and was a guide to me the whole way through.

90-minute strategy session

“I left the session with more clarity, confidence, and actual next steps.”

My 90-minute session with Carolyn was incredibly helpful in getting clear on the direction I wanted to take my practice. She helped me think through how to structure my services in a way that felt sustainable for me while also encouraging me to think bigger about what was possible. I left the session with more clarity, confidence, and actual next steps instead of just a million ideas floating around in my head. Carolyn is warm, knowledgeable, and really gets the realities of being a therapist and business owner.

Clinical guidance

“Carolyn provided clear clinical guidance and a framework I could actually put to work.”

When I moved into offering EMDR intensives for the first time, Carolyn provided clear clinical guidance and a framework I could actually put to work. She helped me think through structure, pacing, and how to hold the container for extended sessions. If you're an experienced EMDR clinician ready to take on intensive work, Carolyn can give you the framework to do it well.

From the group program

What the cohort says

Carolyn's calm presence and unique teaching style make understanding and absorbing information easy… I would highly recommend her.

Rhea, group member

From pricing my intensives in a way that felt right for me… to giving me a marketing plan to get off the ground, Carolyn covered all the bases… I [feel] comfortable explaining the model to referral sources and… confident in the price I set.

Allie, group member

The accountability has been everything. And the focus on networking. It's really changed how I've approached marketing my practice and I'm already seeing results from it.

Group member

I'm so glad I did this! I don't think I would have accomplished what I have or thought of all the things I didn't know, I didn't know.

Group member

I've really loved the community we've formed, as well as the accountability in reaching our goals.

Group member

2 of my current clients converted [to intensives]. So grateful things are moving. This group has been so helpful, thank you.
