A therapy intensive is a focused 3-hour telehealth session designed to help you experience faster progress than traditional weekly therapy. Instead of spreading sessions across weeks or months, you receive deep, uninterrupted support, individualized interventions, and practical tools you can use immediately. Therapy intensives are especially effective for anxiety, panic, relationship issues, and couples seeking efficient, results-driven support in NY, NJ, and MA.

Therapy intensives are ideal for people who want rapid progress, feel stuck in weekly therapy, or need structured, solution-focused support. They are especially helpful for clients experiencing anxiety or panic attacks, overwhelm, chronic stress, or relationship conflict. Couples intensives are also excellent for partners who want faster results, need communication tools, or are separating and want to create agreements without legal escalation.

Your intensive includes a brief assessment, targeted skill-building, and personalized techniques based on your goals. This may include anxiety and panic tools, communication strategies, emotional regulation skills, grounding exercises, and a customized plan. You’ll leave with clear next steps and tools tailored to your needs.

Yes. Each intensive is fully customized based on your symptoms, goals, and history. Before your session, Jasmine gathers detailed information to tailor the intensive for anxiety, panic, emotional overwhelm, couples communication, conflict resolution, or separation support. This ensures your session is efficient, targeted, and highly effective.

No. Therapy intensives are self-pay services and are not covered by insurance companies. Extended 3-hour sessions are not reimbursable through commercial plans such as Aetna, UHC/Optum, MVP, Empire, Oscar, or BCBS plans in NY, NJ, or MA. However, intensives often end up being more cost-effective than long-term weekly therapy.

Yes — a simple two-payment plan is available to make the investment more flexible.
• 50% is due at booking
• 50% is due 7 days before the session

*For most separation intensives, couples chose to split the cost*

The full balance must be completed before your intensive. This structure makes therapy intensives more accessible while still securing your appointment time.

Because Jasmine reserves a large block of time exclusively for your intensive — and because significant preparation happens before the session — all payments for intensives are non-refundable. This includes pre-intensive screening, customized planning, and resource creation. Rescheduling may be possible with advance notice, depending on availability.

Yes. For couples choosing to separate, therapy intensives can help you communicate effectively, reduce conflict, and create child-focused, respectful agreements. For an additional fee, Jasmine can prepare typed agreements such as custody outlines, parenting schedules, communication guidelines, and co-parenting expectations, which you may sign and submit to your attorney. This is a supportive alternative to court-based conflict. These are not legal documents, they are summaries to turn into your lawyer

Before your session, you’ll receive a pre-screening questionnaire and instructions for setting up a private, comfortable space. Many clients choose to bring water, tissues, a blanket, or a notebook. Preparing emotionally and physically allows you to get the most out of your anxiety, panic, or couples therapy intensive.

Yes. Many clients choose a therapy intensive as their first step into mental health support. Intensives are effective whether you are brand new to therapy or simply want faster results than weekly appointments. They are especially helpful for people seeking immediate relief from anxiety, panic symptoms, or relationship distress.

Jasmine uses a trauma-informed, nervous-system-aware approach to ensure the intensive feels safe and manageable. You can pause at any time, and take a break whenever needed. You remain in control of the pace at all times.
