  • “I had basically shut down, stopped interacting with friends pushed them away along with my hobbies. I couldn’t shake all the bad things that had happened to me in my life. After EMDR Therapy … I’m better than new! Friends have said to me, “Welcome back”, I told them, I’m not back because I’m in a peaceful place that I’ve never been to in my life.”

  • When I'm with Sommer I feel she really gets me. She is so accepting and makes me feel so good about myself.

    — TEENAGER, CONNECTICUT

  • Austin's compassionate attitude helps me to open up and really work on my problems that I've been carrying around for years! I feel so hopeful now.
