Here is the interview synopsis:
What if the thing that actually prevented burnout wasn’t seeing fewer clients, but completely reimagining how you work? In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I sit down with Charity O’Reilly to talk about how she built her practice around intensive therapy retreats and why that model changed everything for her.
Charity shares how she went from running a high-stress nonprofit department to hosting five-day trauma intensives in a beautiful cottage in Pennsylvania, where clients fly in from all over the world. We talk about what intensive therapy retreats really look like, how she structures them every other week to protect her energy, how this model supports deep trauma work, and how it’s given her the freedom to take an extended sabbatical. If you’ve ever felt like the traditional weekly model isn’t sustainable, this conversation will stretch your thinking in the best way.
In This Episode, We Explore…
- How Charity built her model after 17 years in nonprofit work.
- What her five-day IFS-informed EMDR trauma intensives actually look like.
- Why she shifted from weekly intensives to every other week.
- How intensive work allows her to take an extended sabbatical.
- What therapists need to understand about licensure when clients travel to you.
