EMDR Intensives in Private Practice Course
A practical, evidence-informed on-demand course that gives you everything you need to confidently and ethically implement EMDR Intensives in your own private practice.
Developed in Australia. Globally applicable.
EEMDR Intensives are becoming increasingly sought after by both clients and therapists. Yet many clinicians find themselves piecing together information from research studies, social media groups, overseas trainings and trial-and-error implementation.
This course was designed to bridge that gap.
Created by Dr Emily Incledon, Clinical Psychologist, EMDRAA Accredited EMDR Consultant and Founder of Lumify Health, it provides a structured, evidence-informed framework for implementing EMDR Intensives safely, ethically and effectively within private practice.
Built around the Lumify Health Intensive Model, the course emphasises comprehensive assessment, thoughtful formulation and practical implementation rather than rigid protocols or one-size-fits-all approaches.
Why Learn with Lumify Health?
-
Rather than presenting EMDR Intensives as a rigid protocol, this course emphasises comprehensive assessment, thoughtful case formulation and evidence-informed clinical decision-making. You'll learn how to determine when an Intensive is appropriate, recognise potential limitations, and tailor treatment planning to the individual client.
-
The Lumify Health Intensive Model was evaluated through a pilot study presented at the 2026 EMDRAA Conference, providing preliminary evidence of its feasibility and effectiveness within an Australian private practice setting. Throughout the course, current research is integrated with practical clinical application to support safe and ethical implementation.
-
Many EMDR Intensive training programs are based on research conducted in specialist outpatient settings or healthcare systems, which may not reflect the realities of private practice.
The Lumify Health Intensive Model was developed, implemented and evaluated within a busy private practice, providing practical guidance on the clinical, operational and business considerations involved in offering EMDR Intensives.
The course was developed in Australia but can be applied to private practices globally.
-
This is more than a course about EMDR Intensives—it's a course about implementing them. Alongside the clinical framework, you'll learn the practical systems, documentation, workflows and service design considerations needed to confidently integrate EMDR Intensives into your own practice.

All our Resources are Designed to Translate Into Practice
Unlike many professional development courses, this training is designed to translate directly into clinical practice. You'll leave with a framework for designing and delivering EMDR Intensives, with higher tiers adding practical resources and support to help you implement your service.
EMDR Intensives can offer benefits for both clients and clinicians, providing an alternative to traditional weekly trauma-focused treatment.
-
EMDR Intensives provide dedicated time for focused therapeutic work, with less interruption between periods of trauma processing than is possible within a standard therapy hour.
For some clients, a concentrated treatment format may also be more practical or appealing than attending frequent appointments over an extended period. Intensives provide another treatment option that can be considered according to the client's presentation, preferences and circumstances.
-
Intensives can become the focus of a practice or sit alongside traditional weekly therapy, giving clinicians greater flexibility in how they structure their schedule.
Longer treatment blocks can create dedicated space for focused clinical work, provide greater variety within the working week, and offer an alternative to maintaining a large caseload of recurring weekly appointments.
-
The training is designed with the realities of private practice in mind, so what you learn can be applied directly to developing your own Intensive service.
For example, at a fee of $300 per hour, a 9.5-hour Intensive pathway would generate $2,850 in gross professional fees.
Fees, costs, demand and service models will vary between practices, but this illustrates the potential for the cost of the training to be recovered relatively quickly once Intensives become part of your service offering.
