EMDR is a type of therapy that addresses symptoms and emotions that are the result of distressing life experiences. After the presenting issues and target memories are identified, Dr. Piazza guides the client through eye movements while the client attends to various aspects of the memories. Through this process, the client’s memories and thoughts become more adaptive, distress is resolved, and healing occurs. For more information on EMDR, please visit the EMDR Institute, Inc.’s website here.

VRET is a highly effective, cutting-edge treatment that uses immersive technology to decrease anxiety associated with phobias (i.e., social anxiety, fear of flying, fear of heights, fear of driving). VRET helps clients confront their fears in a safe, controlled, and confidential environment to help them regain control of their life.
