“My EMDR sessions with Bianca were successful at calming my anxiety around certain childhood trauma that would bring on tremendous negative feelings. Bianca made me feel comfortable and I was able to easily share my trauma with her. She brings such peace to the sessions. She’s very patient and compassionate. I recommend doing sessions with Bianca for self- healing and inner peace.”
