Original methodology

Creator of EMDArise

Developed by Dr. John Bowen

EMDArise is a next-generation, EMDR-based healing technique created by Dr. Bowen. It combines bilateral stimulation with a forward-focused, solution-oriented approach so clients can release the emotional charge of the past and build momentum toward the future.

What this means for you

Instead of reliving pain for months, EMDArise is designed to help you feel lighter and clearer, often faster than you expect.

My Philosophy on Trauma Healing

Most people believe healing has to be painful, slow, or involve retelling every difficult memory. Dr. Bowen disagrees. His work as a trauma specialist in New York is built on three core beliefs:

  • You do not need to retell your trauma to heal it
  • Healing can be fast, gentle, and empowering
  • It is time to release what no longer serves you
  • EMDArise, the next generation of EMDR

EMDArise was built on these principles. It works with your mind, not against it, so healing happens at the root level without retraumatization.

A Personal Note From Dr. Bowen

Healing does not have to be hard. In fact, the journey toward freedom from trauma can be enjoyable and even feel like a relief. My goal is not to put you through more pain in the name of healing. My goal is to help you feel lighter, clearer, and more like yourself again, often faster than you ever thought possible.
