So you’ve made the decision to start offering your EMDR intensives. Great! Now, how do you price them? I touched upon pricing in previous episodes that intensives are higher priced than regular therapy sessions, and how that can make some therapists uncomfortable. If you're feeling uneasy about charging more than $250 per session, you are not alone. As therapists, we are socialized into the belief that we do what we do because we are good people, and good people "should" help others with very little compensation, right? No!

With EMDR intensives, your clients get much more value for their money than they would with regular therapy sessions. Plus, there are many other factors that you need to consider. Join me in today's podcast episode as I talk about how to price your EMDR intensives, how to deal with your money stories, what to take into consideration when pricing your intensives, and more.
