EMDR Therapy in Mankato, Minnesota

Thrive In A New Approach (TIANA), LLC

Individual Therapy for adults struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues or past trauma who want to experience forward movement, resolution and peace.

Do any of these sound familiar?

  • From the outside, it may look like you’re holding things together. On the inside, you might feel exhausted, disconnected, or emotionally flat. Joy feels muted. Life feels like survival instead of something you’re actually present for.

  • You may notice yourself:

    • Avoiding certain situations or relationships

    • Freezing or shutting down when stressed

    • Overthinking everything and trusting yourself very little

    • Repeating relationship patterns you swore you wouldn’t repeat

    Even when you want to respond differently, your system takes over.

  • You may have spent years in therapy, gained insight, and understand why you feel the way you do—yet the emotional charge hasn’t gone away. The memories still feel close. The reactions still show up. You’re tired of talking in circles and want something to actually shift.

  • You might experience anxiety, panic, or low mood that seems to come out of nowhere. Little things feel big. Your reactions surprise you. You may wonder why you can’t “just get over it,” especially when others think you’re doing fine.

  • You might find yourself feeling constantly on edge, tense, or overwhelmed—even when nothing is obviously wrong. Your mind may understand that the past is over, but your body still reacts as if it’s happening again. Relaxing feels hard, and peace feels unfamiliar.

  • You might carry a deep sense of shame or self-blame, even if you can’t trace it back to one specific event. There may be an inner voice that says you’re not enough, too much, or fundamentally flawed—no matter how hard you try or how successful you are.

  • You may want to heal from past experiences without retelling every detail or being overwhelmed by them again. You’re not looking to erase your past—you just want it to stop controlling how you feel, react, and live today.

I’m Tiana. I use EMDR Therapy to help adults who…

  • Are tired of feeling ‘stuck’ - in negative thoughts, emotions, past experiences, or bothersome patterns that just keep lingering - with no clear connection to the root or how to get out.

  • Are lacking clarity or direction - in resolving current problems or struggles, knowing where to start or how to move forward - despite your best efforts to “fix things on your own”.

  • Who are eager, open-minded, and motivated to gain new perspective and work for change in a time efficient manner - as opposed to simply just venting about your problems or experiences endlessly, talking in circles session after session (for months, or even years) on end.

  • Pinpoint the true underlying roots of your current problems - revealing to you the “why” behind your patterns, reactions, emotions or thoughts - uncovering what is not already known to you. It helps guide you to effectively develop new awareness that empowers you to take back control of your thoughts and feelings to start creating the life you want to live.

  • ‘Re-wire’ the brain naturally (without medication!) - EMDR is neuroscience based therapy modality that builds and integrates new neuropathways in the brain - so your emotional triggers no longer ‘take over control’. You start perceiving situations (past and present) in a new way, so you can manage your thoughts, feelings, reactions and relationships more effectively, in real time.

  • Experience true resolution and release - from emotional triggers and past experiences, while gaining a renewed sense of awareness, empowerment, control, or feelings of contentment or peace.
