The Resilience Therapy Collective is a network of therapists in California’s Central Valley committed to serving our communities by providing excellence in trauma treatment. We come from a variety of backgrounds with specialties in different areas, but what unifies us in our commitment to utilizing EMDR as our primary modality for treating trauma.

 

What sets us apart is our commitment to maintaining the highest standards in our discipline in all areas of practice. From the first contact with clients to the day they complete therapy, we are committed to providing the best treatment available. All members of the collective must be EMDRIA Certified Therapists or must be actively pursuing certification. What this means for clients is that these therapists have gone above and beyond a basic EMDR training as certification requires ongoing continuing education in EMDR as well as other commitments to excellence. This collective of therapists was launched in 2025 by the original Resilience Counseling Group out of a growing desire to share their share their passion for EMDR with other local therapists. 

​

Resilience Counseling Group was founded in 2014 by Sherri Eason, LMFT and Gina Ornelas, LMFT. After months of trying to find the right name for their group, on a flight to an EMDRIA conference, Sherri told the man in the seat next to her (Dave) a bit about what we do. By the time they landed he said, "I think you ladies create resilience. That's your name!" Thanks Dave wherever you are! You saw our mission!

 

Susan Gravette, LMFT joined in 2016 and Natalie Garvey, LMFT in 2017. Others have come and gone over the years but the one thing that has remained is our commitment to excellent trauma therapy and our encouragement of each other.
