Intensive therapy
Ingeborg Bosch only has a few possiblities for Intensive therapy every year. These are taking place in the south of France.
The Intensive involves a series of 5 individual therapy sessions of 1,5 hours each which take place within one week. Intensives contain the following aspects:
- Exploring and making sure you understand fully whatever the unmet needs in your childhood were, many of which you will have suppressed.
- Explaining the PRI-concepts in relation to your specific needs
- Identifying your symbols and defences that you use to stop you from feeling your old pain.
- Outlining a plan to turn around the defence that you use to avoid the painful old reality so that you gain access to your old pain and can start to de-identify yourself from your symbols and defences.
- Giving practice homework when applicable.
- Enabling childhood feelings to emerge through your repression and denial when possible.
- Sending you back with a plan for continued self-work
The unconscious survival mechanisms make it difficult to apply these seven steps on your own and, unless you diligently apply your “plan for self-work” that will have been put together during the Intensive, these defence mechanisms will also try to undermine your progress. It is possible that you will need some follow-up therapy sessions on an incidental basis or a more structured approach of PRI therapy sessions over a longer period of time.
It would be best not to have any commitments at all on the days on which the therapy sessions take place. This is not because it would not be possible to have any obligations, it is rather that the effect of the Intensive will be affected when the feelings that are surfacing to enable you to deal with them need to be put under again because other commitments prevail on that moment.
After the Intensive has ended it is possible to have follow-up sessions with a PRI therapist. If it becomes clear during the Intensive that therapy on the basis of weekly or two-weekly sessions will be necessary then a referral will take place within the possibilities of that time.
