Professional Passions

Dr. Vince has personally benefited from EMDR. Not only is he a treatment provider… Dr. Vince is also a “survivor”!! Experiencing PTSD symptoms while in his first year in college and undergoing EMDR successfully, Dr. Vince quickly changed his major from Business to Psychology. He told himself, “I’m going to learn this technique and use it to help other people.” He has been doing it passionately and driving home after work with a big smile and a warm heart. Dr. Vince knows how EMDR works from both sides.

Understanding what motivates people from different cultures to maintain their emotional well-being is another passion of Dr. Vince. He has traveled to different rural provinces in Asia to meet with people to study this and shares his findings in supervision groups that he leads.

Dr. Vince practices mindfulness by journaling, exercising, scuba diving, and keeping his work-family-self life nurtured and balanced.
