Stories of Healing and Hope

(Used with client permission)​

“I was struggling with depression, anxiety, and negative thought patterns. EMDR and
practical tools helped me reframe my negative thinking. I’m a firm believer in EMDR and believe it helped me make progress at a faster pace, building resilience and confidence that improved all aspects of my life. Sessions always end with me feeling understood and hopeful. Although prayer is optional, I always welcome it.”
– Daniel McGrath, Army Veteran & Merchant Marine

​

“I felt incredible compassion and validation in the work, which created an exceptional,
open space for me to explore and identify my hurt and trauma. In that space, I was able to work through and begin overcoming those hardships. Over the past year, I’ve covered a lot of ground, and my life has bloomed in ways I didn’t think possible. I tell people that EMDR has changed my life in the best ways possible.”
– Annie, Age 30

“Counseling with Dr. Holli did tremendous things to help me identify and prioritize my
goals, identify strategies and actions that aligned with those goals, and reach peace within myself. I experience so much less anxiety now and have specific tools in place to use whenever I feel anxious.”
– Sarah M.

“I want to express my gratitude for being selected for a Veterans Scholarship this past
summer. My husband and I faced significant challenges transitioning from military career to civilian life, and I knew childhood trauma was also affecting our marriage and our six children. I wanted more than anything to go through personal counseling, but due to a large family and single income, that was impossible. Because of the Veterans Scholarship, Dr. Holli, using EMDR, helped me work through painful memories and trauma that had affected me all my life, and brought greater clarity to who I am today. The value of learning boundaries has not only affected my personal well-being, but has benefited my marriage and my children, and inspired me to move forward to receive training through the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation to help other women as well.”

“The counseling has been great. It’s allowed me to open up and share how I felt about Dad and other things. It’s taken a big burden off me and helped me deal with things in the future. Thank you.”
