Great to meet you!

My name is Erick Pena. I struggled with depression and anxiety for about 20 years, and it wasn't until I read a book called "Getting Past Your Past" by Francine Shapiro that everything started to make sense. As a therapist, I offer traditional talk therapy, but I am incredibly passionate about EMDR therapy. I believe that in the same way talk and EMDR therapy have helped me deal with the negative symptoms that plagued my life for so long, they can also help you.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Join you in your journey by listening and providing the necessary support to help you live your best life.

What you can expect from our first session

I specialize in helping people manage negative mental health symptoms that are caused by negative experiences by using talk and EMDR therapy.
