Your problem isn't the problem. Your reaction is the problem.

More About Therapy

What is CBT?

CBT is based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and can trap you in a vicious cycle.

CBT aims to help you deal with overwhelming problems in a more positive way by breaking them down into smaller parts in order to improve your mood and the way you feel. 

What is EMDR?

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences. By unblocking your emotions, you can (in a sense) reprogram your brain. Then, you can begin to heal from the fear and pain associated with the trauma and emotional distress you have experienced.
