Erica Viggiano LCSW, CACIII, RYT, RD
Modern life holds many challenges that can take us out of balance with ourselves and those that we care about. Sometimes life’s challenges and transitions create personal challenges that can be difficult to overcome on our own. Clients come to counseling and therapy for many reasons ranging from a desire for self-improvement and growth, to wanting to feel better and heal from emotional difficulties. Erica is skilled in helping adults and adolescents with a variety of challenges including mood and anxiety disorders, aggression, trauma related issues, eating and body image issues, relationship issues, and addiction problems. Many of these common problems have a distinct physical component. Erica’s approach is centered in cognitive behavioral therapy (working with thoughts to impact our feelings) integrated with mindfulness-based approaches. These approaches help us access and develop the healing potential of the body and the mind. Erica has also been practicing EMDR since 1999. In many situations EMDR can help individuals move through traumatic and distressing experiences more rapidly than through talk therapy alone. EMDR can also be effective in managing other anxiety related problems as well as difficulties related to addiction. The process of EMDR allows clients to discover, practice and develop more confidence in their own skills and healing resources. In this way Erica also uses EMDR to reinforce healthy coping skills.
