Why Choose EMDr Therapy for Anxiety and Trauma?

Are trauma, anxiety, or painful memories keeping you from living the life you want? You don’t have to face it alone.
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy is a proven, evidence-based approach that helps your brain heal from trauma and stress so that painful experiences lose their emotional power.

Find Relief and Reclaim Calm

If you’ve tried traditional talk therapy but still feel stuck, EMDR may offer the breakthrough you’ve been waiting for. Many clients experience meaningful improvement in fewer sessions than standard therapy.

Through a structured, supportive process, together we’ll help you:

  • Reduce the intensity of distressing memories

  • Calm anxiety and panic

  • Improve sleep and focus

  • Reconnect with yourself and others

About Eric

What to Expect

During EMDR sessions, we use gentle bilateral stimulation — such as eye movements, sounds, or taps — while recalling distressing experiences. This helps your brain reprocess stuck memories, allowing emotional healing to occur naturally.

You’ll remain in control and aware throughout the process. Together, we’ll create a plan that focuses on your comfort and emotional safety.

WhAt others are Saying

“Words can’t fully capture the impact Eric has had on my life over the past year. When I first started therapy, I wasn’t sure where to begin or what I even hoped to accomplish. I knew I wanted to better understand my emotions and develop real tools to navigate them, but I wasn’t sure what that would look like in practice. After trying therapy with others in the past and not feeling a real connection, I was starting to wonder if it just wasn’t for me. But working with Eric changed that. He is thoughtful, intuitive, and incredibly easy to talk to. He creates a space that feels safe for exploration and growth, without pressure or pretense. He has a way of helping me understand myself in ways I never could before, and because of that, I’ve made real, meaningful changes in my life. I feel more capable, more self-assured, and more at peace navigating the world, and I have Eric to thank for that. I couldn’t recommend him more highly.”—Client Testimonial
