Sometimes people seek treatment knowing what is causing them distress, for example, anxiety and depression, work stress or relationship difficulty including parenting stress. Other times people have been in traditional talk therapy and have made improvement in their lives but still feel stuck in one area or another. For chronic issues and addictive behaviors, clients benefit most from trauma based treatments, like EMDR. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the distress and symptoms associated with troubling life experiences.

Many individuals who may benefit from therapy are feeling emotionally distressed. This could be the result of problems within their relationships, job, academic setting, or due to general life stressors. Yet, many of these individuals are also reluctant to seek treatment due to the various misconceptions about therapy. This is of particular importance to my treatment approach, as I strive to meet each client's distinct needs with the understanding that this endeavor may not have been an easy one.

Your prayer has been answered! Hi, I am Eric Joseph, welcome to Total Therapy Today LLC. I have 21 years of pastoral and 12 years of clinical experience working with many individuals struggling with various life issues. The work of ministry for pastors and lay leaders can add more stress. The truth is that being a born again Christian do not make us immune to those struggles which are usually manifested as anxiety, depression and other mental and emotional difficulties. This makes professional Christian counseling not just a therapeutic process but a ministry to the body of Christ—so we will begin and end every session with prayer.

I specialize in helping adults heal from complex trauma and improve their quality of life. I enjoy working with the college aged population up to those in their 50's where we often explore the impact of childhood experiences on present day functioning, how to promote supportive relationships through communication skills and boundary implementation, and work on strengthening your sense of self to feel confident and empowered. Navigating life transitions, promoting sexual well-being, exploring spirituality or adversity to it, and engaging in premarital work with couples are also topics that I enjoy assisting with.

You won't find any Freudian psycho-babble here. My ideal clients want to move beyond theory and discuss real-world, lasting changes. Sure, we have to glance in the rear-view mirror every once in a while, but it is the road ahead that matters. My clients who have shown the most progress are always the ones with the most drive to make changes in their life to benefit themselves and those around them. We can analyze your thoughts all day and there's a time and a place for that, but we need to analyze the decisions you make and the direction you are taking in life.
