lōmii 5: EMDR intensives in fort lauderdale
a 5 day trauma therapy retreat
Lōmii 5 is a 5-day individual trauma therapy retreat combining EMDR reprocessing, occupational therapy and somatic practices, parts work, and optional ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. The work takes place 1:1 in a private clinical setting in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and is led by EMDRIA-certified clinicians with advanced training in complex trauma, attachment, and dissociation.
The intensive is not a substitute for inpatient care, residential treatment, or psychiatric hospitalization. It is a bounded clinical container for adults who are clinically stable and ready for focused work on specific trauma targets.
maybe you can relateYou've been carrying this long enough.
You may have built a career, a family, relationships that look, by most measures, successful. Inside, something persists. Attachment wounds that surface in intimacy. Complex post-traumatic stress that weekly therapy hasn't resolved. Betrayal trauma whose impact refuses to fade with time. Childhood and developmental trauma whose effects you can name clearly but cannot shift. Chronic dysregulation or dissociative experiences that remain despite years of insight-oriented work.
Many of our clients have done significant prior therapy. They have read widely, tried modalities, gained insight. What remains is the specific work that weekly therapy is structurally not designed to do: sustained, contained, deep reprocessing with a skilled clinical team.
“Jess has been instrumental in my healing.”
“Through one of the most difficult times and transitions in my life, she has been there in the most supportive, nonjudgmental way. She has helped me with insight into past traumas, and how they affect my present life, relationships, decisions and actions. Jess is an expert who truly cares about her patients and is 1000% invested in our wellbeing. I always look forward to our sessions. From the first time I spoke with her, I felt truly supported and understood… she’s got you.”
Who our intensives are for
Our intensives are designed for high-achieving adults: executives, entrepreneurs, athletes, physicians, and creatives who appear outwardly composed and successful while carrying significant internal pressure, attachment wounds, or unresolved trauma. Most have done substantial therapy already and have awareness and insight into what is holding them back. What brings them to us is the specific work weekly therapy is structurally not designed to do.

Previous client
“I have the confidence now to continue this journey forward and the tools to ensure these changes are long term.”
“After struggling for years trying to understand why I was just not feeling right, battling with alcohol and even going through long periods of sobriety trying to fix myself, I was recommended EMDR. I was attracted to the intensive option Jessica offers given my schedule and desire to see results as quickly as possible. I had no idea whether this would work or what it was, but I put 100% into the process and Jessica was incredible. I would highly recommend Jessica and the intensive program to anyone looking for change through EMDR.”

“I felt no judgement or shame in sharing my experiences and trauma with her.“
“I felt like I was talking with one of my closest friends who just happened to know how to help me process my trauma. I love how safe I immediately felt with Jessica. She physically and emotionally has created a welcoming, warm, calm environment centered on healing.”

Previous client
“I walked away feeling lighter.”
“The rocks on my back are few and far between now. I have clarity. I am at peace. I have found my voice and know how to use it against those who have caused my trauma without it effecting my nerves. I speak my peace and get irritated if warranted but, I’m not holding it in my body with tension or hurt or anger. I can feel emotions and let them go because now I am not afraid to speak up. I’m honest with myself and with others. I have also been able to bring the meditation and breathing practice into my daily life.”

“The best thing I have ever done for myself!”
“Even if you are considering it, you need it! Can’t afford it? Cut corners and start a separate savings account. You cannot afford to not get this treatment and take care of your mind, body and soul. I wish I was ready to do this decades ago!!”
The formats
Our intensive formats:
No. 01
Lōmii 5
Five-day multimodal intensiveLōmii 5 is a five-day individual trauma intensive combining EMDR reprocessing, occupational therapy, and somatic practices, designed for adults who have already engaged in prior therapy yet continue to feel stuck in long-standing patterns, emotional responses, or embodied stress.
This format allows for sustained attention, relational continuity, and careful pacing, creating the conditions for deeper processing than weekly therapy can typically support. The work is trauma-centered, collaborative, and tailored to your unique history, capacity, and goals.
Throughout the intensive, somatic and body-based support is provided by Emmy Slaibe, OTR/L, a licensed occupational therapist with advanced training in functional and sensory assessment. Her work also incorporates somatic breathwork, restorative yoga, sound-based regulation, and reiki. Emmy's role supports nervous system regulation, embodied awareness, and the transitions between deeper processing sessions.
FORMAT
Lōmii 5 is typically offered as a five-day therapeutic process. In select cases, the structure may be adjusted, shortened or extended, based on clinical need, readiness, and capacity.
What the Lōmii 5 Intensive Can Support
Experiences of sexual harm, boundary violations, or coercion, including those that occurred in childhood or over time
Childhood and developmental trauma, including emotional neglect and attachment-related wounds that can be subtle but deeply impactful
Unprocessed trauma, grief, or the aftermath of crisis that continues to surface emotionally or physiologically
Chronic stress, burnout, or persistent dysregulation that has not shifted with insight alone
Emotional disconnection, numbness, or the sense of moving through life on autopilot
Relational patterns and attachment wounds affecting intimacy, trust, or emotional safety
Compulsive or self-protective behaviors—such as overworking, avoidance, or substance use—that no longer feel sustainable
Shame, self-criticism, or a disconnect between how you are perceived and how you actually feel

Lōmii Assisted Intensive

This offering is designed for individuals who feel emotionally stuck, disconnected, or limited by conventional therapeutic pacing, and who are open to working with non-ordinary states as part of a carefully supported healing process.
Somatic and body-based integration is provided throughout the intensive by Emmy, whose work supports regulation, grounding, and post-session integration—particularly important in medicine-assisted contexts.
The focus remains on integration, not experience alone. Medicine-assisted sessions are woven thoughtfully with preparation, therapeutic processing, and embodied integration.

One or more Lōmii Intensives within a defined timeframe
Ongoing integration support between intensive phases
Integrated somatic work with Emmy during intensive periods
Coordinated collaboration with outside providers or key supports, when appropriate

About Somatic & Integrative Work at Lōmii
Somatic and body-based work at Lōmii is not prescriptive.
Some clients prefer simple, gentle stretching, breathwork, and grounding practices. Others choose to integrate additional modalities such as sound baths or Reiki as part of their process.
All integrative work is offered collaboratively, with respect for pacing, readiness, and personal preference.
What to expect from the process
Initial consultationWe begin with an introductory call to discuss your goals, assess fit, and answer any questions you have about the intensive format. This conversation helps us both determine if an intensive is the right path for you.
Preparation phaseBefore your intensive, we'll meet for a dedicated preparation session where we review what to expect, establish grounding practices, and ensure you feel ready. You'll also receive guidance on how to care for your body and mind during the process.
The intensive experienceOver the course of a few days, we spend several focused hours together. Sessions integrate EMDR, attachment-focused therapy, somatic and neuro-affective practices, parts work, and optional ketamine-assisted therapy—all paced thoughtfully around what your system needs.
Integration and follow-upAfter your intensive, you'll receive integration guidance to support the shifts you've made. We can schedule follow-up sessions as needed to help you anchor the work and continue moving forward with clarity and stability.
