The Flagship Offer · Application-Only · Washington State
Two Days.
From Crisis
Into Clarity.
The Betrayal Trauma Stabilization Intensive is concentrated, specialized work — designed to move you further in two days than months of once-a-week therapy.
This is not a crisis line. It is not general therapy. It is two full days of specialized betrayal trauma treatment — EMDR-informed, attachment-focused, and built around the neuroscience of what actually happened to your nervous system the moment everything changed.
This Is Not Traditional Therapy.
This Is Concentrated Healing.
A betrayal trauma intensive therapy program exists because weekly therapy has its place — but for women in the acute phase of betrayal — the sleepless nights, the obsessive checking, the inability to think straight, the body that won’t settle — waiting a week between sessions can feel like trying to bail out a flooding boat with a teaspoon.
The Intensive is different. Two full days of uninterrupted, specialized work — enough time to actually stabilize your nervous system, understand what happened in your body, and leave with a clear, personalized plan for what comes next.
You will not leave the same way you arrived.
That is the point.
What Happens
Across Two Days
The Intensive is structured around the first two stages of the Woodland Pathways Model — Stabilize and Clarify — with the work moving at your pace, not a clock’s.
Nervous System Assessment
We begin with your body, not your story. A full nervous system assessment reveals where you are and what your system needs most right now.
Stabilization Work
EMDR-informed stabilization — including Peaceful Place and other Attachment-Focused EMDR resourcing — to bring your nervous system out of survival mode.
Understanding What Happened
A clinical map of betrayal trauma: what it is, why your responses are normal, and what your body has been trying to do on your behalf.
Clarifying Reality
Sorting what is true from what confusion, gaslighting, and your own fear have tangled together. Restoring your access to your own perceptions.
Restoring Self-Trust
Beginning the process of reconnecting with your own knowing — the internal authority that betrayal and gaslighting have worked to erode.
Your Personalized Plan
You leave with a written stabilization plan — grounded in your nervous system, your life, and your specific next steps forward.
The Intensive does not require you to make any decisions about your relationship. Your healing and your relationship decisions run as two separate tracks — and we never conflate them. You are the primary client. Your nervous system is the primary treatment site.
You Might Be Ready
for the Intensive If —
- → You discovered infidelity or sexual betrayal — recently, or months ago — and you are still not sleeping, still checking, still spinning.
- → You have tried weekly therapy and it hasn’t touched the depth of what you’re carrying. You need something more concentrated.
- → You have seen a couples therapist and left feeling worse, not better — like your wound was managed rather than treated.
- → You are feeling pressure — from yourself, your partner, your family — to make decisions before your nervous system is ready to make them clearly.
- → You want to work with a specialist — not a generalist — who has spent 25 years working exclusively with women navigating exactly what you are navigating.
- → You are a woman in Washington State — or you are willing to travel to Leavenworth, WA for in-person intensive work.
The Details
The Intensive is delivered across two days — two concentrated half-day sessions that give your nervous system enough time to actually shift, not just touch the surface and reset.
Sessions are available via secure telehealth for Washington State residents, or in person near Leavenworth, Washington for women traveling from outside the state.
Full Investment · Two-Day Intensive
Telehealth — Washington State
Delivered via secure video across two days. Available to women who are residents of Washington State. Each session is a concentrated half-day of specialized betrayal trauma treatment.
In Person — Leavenworth, WA
Women traveling from outside Washington State are welcome to come to the Leavenworth area — a Bavarian-themed village nestled in the Cascade Mountains — and work with Teresa in person. Many women find that pairing the Intensive with a few days in this setting deepens the work in ways that are hard to replicate at home.

Guided by the
Woodland Pathways Model
The Intensive is the entry point into the Woodland Pathways Model — a structured five-stage framework developed over 25 years of working exclusively with women in betrayal trauma recovery. The two days focus on Stabilize and Clarify, and establish the foundation for everything that follows.
Stabilize
Calm the nervous system. Restore basic function.
Clarify
Sort truth from confusion. Understand what happened.
Reclaim
Rebuild self-trust. Reconnect with identity.
Integrate
Process what happened. Rewrite the story.
Live Well
Step into a life that is deliberately your own.
The Intensive covers Stabilize and Clarify. Individual therapy continues the journey through Reclaim, Integrate, and Live Well.
