CalmER: Evaluating the Effects of Emotional Resolution Therapy on Anxiety in Healthcare Workers CalmER: Evaluating Emotional Resolution® for Anxiety in Healthcare Workers A Clinical Research by UCLA Supporting healthcare workers with an accessible, remote intervention designed to reduce anxiety and improve emotional well-being. This study explores the effects of Emotional Resolution Therapy, or EmRes, compared with an active control intervention called Mindfulness-Based Gratitude, or MBG, among healthcare workers experiencing elevated anxiety. View Study Findings Download Full Study Why This Study Matters Healthcare workers often experience high levels of anxiety, stress, depression, and burnout due to intense work demands. These concerns became even more prominent following the COVID-19 pandemic. Many healthcare workers also face barriers to traditional therapy, including limited time, scheduling issues, cost, and stigma. This study investigated whether a remote, scalable intervention could offer a more accessible form of support. See How the Study Was What Is Emotional Resolution Therapy? Emotional Resolution Therapy, or EmRes, is a body-focused intervention designed to help individuals process and resolve the physical sensations associated with emotions. Rather than focusing only on thoughts or discussion-based therapy, EmRes works by helping participants become aware of the body’s response to emotional distress and allowing those sensations to resolve naturally. Key Points Remote, one-on-one sessions Body-focused emotional processing Designed to reduce distress linked to anxiety Delivered over a structured 9-week periods Explore the Study Method What Was Mindfulness-Based Gratitude? The active control group participated in Mindfulness-Based Gratitude , or MBG . This intervention focused on appreciation, mindfulness, and resilience through practices such as guided meditations, gratitude journaling, and reflective mindfulness exercises. This allowed the study to compare EmRes with another supportive intervention, rather than comparing it to no treatment. How the Study Was Conducted This randomized controlled trial compared EmRes with Mindfulness-Based Gratitude in healthcare workers with elevated anxiety symptoms. Study Details Participants: 124 healthcare workers with follow-up data on the primary outcome Groups: EmRes group: 60 participants MBG group: 64 participants Age Range: 18 to 61 years old Setting: All procedures were completed remotely Timeline: Approximately 19 weeks total Study Phases Baseline Period Week 1 Intervention Period 9 weeks Follow-Up 1 Week 10 Follow-Up 2 Week 19 Review the Outcome Measures Study Measures The study measured anxiety as the primary outcome, with stress and depression as secondary outcomes. Primary Outcome Anxiety Measured using the PROMIS Anxiety Short Form ‎ ‎ Secondary Outcomes Stress Measured using the Perceived Stress Scale Depression Measured using the Beck Depression Inventory Additional Measures Participants also provided physiological data and dried blood spot samples to explore possible biological changes related to the interventions. What the Study Found Both groups showed improvements in anxiety over time. However, participants in the EmRes group reported significantly greater reductions in anxiety compared with those in the MBG group. Key Finding EmRes participants had lower anxiety scores at Follow-Up 1 compared with participants in the Mindfulness-Based Gratitude group. Additional Mental Health Outcomes Stress and depression followed a similar pattern to anxiety, but the effects were not statistically significant in this trial. This suggests that while EmRes showed stronger results for anxiety, additional research may be needed to understand its impact on broader mental health outcomes such as stress and depression. What These Findings Suggest The findings suggest that EmRes may be an effective, scalable, and accessible remote intervention for healthcare workers experiencing anxiety. Both interventions were associated with improvements over time, but EmRes showed a greater reduction in anxiety by the first follow-up point. This is especially relevant for healthcare settings where workers may need flexible, low-barrier mental health support. Ongoing Analysis Additional analyses will examine whether the effects of EmRes are sustained over time. The next stage of the study will review: Follow-Up 2 data Sleep, activity, and stress data Inflammatory cytokines from dried blood spot samples Changes from baseline to Follow-Up 1 Why This Matters for Healthcare Systems Remote mental health interventions like EmRes may provide a valuable support option for healthcare workers who face occupational stress and limited access to traditional care. For organizations, scalable interventions may help create more accessible pathways for emotional support, especially in high-pressure clinical environments.

She helps people with emotional challenges because she knows it will help them as it helped her. Everyone deserves emotional freedom and the joy and contentment that it brings. When you’re stressed out about something, there are uncomfortable feelings in the body, while the head is racing away with a response? The body sensations are due to unprocessed emotions that remain in the body. That’s all it is—no judgment, just unprocessed stuff from the past. The mental activity is a secondary reaction to the body’s signals. What would happen if the body sensations were not there? Emotional Resolution or EmRes resolves emotions that our body didn’t process. When the past emotional body memories are released, we are not triggered emotionally. We can be present and respond to the now instead of reacting to the past. It is life-changing to get rid of the emotional triggering that keeps us upset and on edge. “I am continually delighted and amazed at how Emotional Resolution can relax our human experience. As we uninstall the buttons that trigger over-the-top emotional expression in specific situations, our world becomes a much more comfortable place to be; we move through our lives with greater ease and joy. It’s wonderful!” – Sue Siebens Sue has a Bachelor of Science in Zoology from Iowa State University. She had a successful 28-year career in Information Technology (IT) before turning her focus to the world of natural healing. Sue is certified in Advanced Emotional Resolution (EmRes), bodywork (Bowen Myofascial Therapy) and advanced energy techniques (Reiki, Quantum Touch, Crystal healing, Shamanic practices) to accelerate and enhance transformation healing, and manifestation. Sue works online (Zoom) and in her clinic in Dallas, Tx. All appointments book through https://www.naturalemotionalwellness.com/appointments/

Meet the Practitioners < Previous Return to Directory Next > Lynh Nguyen Send an Email https://www.lynhnguyen.com 415-489-0896 Oakland CA, United States Languages: English Certifications: Certified EmRes Practitioner Resolution of Physical Symptoms and Addictive Behaviors Specialist EmRes Practice Group Moderator About Lynh: Lynh began her career as a Physical Therapist, but soon after developed an interest in the interconnectedness of mind, body, and emotions. Frustrated with today's healthcare system and the inadequate care for emotional health, she decided to change paths and find a healing system that combines all aspects of a person's well being. For Lynh, the most effective, direct, and uncomplicated method is Emotional Resolution taught by the Emotional Health Institute. With Emotional Resolution, Lynh helps people deepen their connection to their body through the physiological sensations felt during an emotion. The body holds our spirit and inner wisdom. Our sensations provide a pathway for the body to release old traumas and negative behaviors so that our own wisdom can speak clearly through us. As much as she loves to bring people back into their bodies, she also loves learning from and listening to the wisdom of her clients communicated through words, beautiful images and visions during a session. In addition to helping clients, Lynh also truly enjoys taking part in the training of current and future EmRes Practitioners to develop a deeper understanding of the beauty of this work. Lynh assists in the teachings of Modules 1-3 as well as serves as Moderator for EmRes Practice Groups for all practitioners to develop their craft as well as perform their own self care. Whether a client or a fellow Practitioner, Lynh looks forward to working together with you to live your life freely and wholeheartedly. "I am not here to fix you, you are not broken.. I am here to free you, you have always been beautiful and whole." -Lynh N.

Meet the Practitioners < Previous Return to Directory Next > Fabrice Galli Send an Email Australia Languages: English, French Certifications: Certified EmRes Practitioner Resolution of Physical Symptoms & Unwanted Behaviors “Knowing oneself comes from attending with compassionate curiosity to what is happening within” - Dr. Gabor Maté. About Fabrice: As someone who understands the power of compassion and presence, Fabrice utilises these principles to guide the EmRes sessions he leads. Fabrice has a lifelong interest in personal growth, self-optimisation and spiritual studies. As a result, he has many years of experience leading men’s groups and meditation sessions and is currently moving deeper into this practice whilst studying Counselling at Deakin University in Australia. Fabrice speaks English and French and is based on the beautiful shores of Victoria, Australia. He is currently taking on new clients and is available to work with you online from anywhere in the world. "I had no experience with EMRES prior to my interaction with Fabrice, but his ability to explain the process and guide me through what to expect was amazing. Fabrice has a very calm way of guiding you through and there were times when I was talking to him and I was thinking that not much was going to come up and then I’d find myself deep in a place that I didn’t expect to be, but was extremely grateful for. I have no hesitation in recommending Fabrice as a practitioner through this beautiful process”- Shannon, NSW, Australia "Fabrice has facilitated over a dozen EmRes sessions for me. I have been amazed at his ability to firstly zero in on the core emotion that I have been experiencing amongst the jungle of confusion. This is followed by his intuitive guidance in unlocking the physical sensations that are associated with that emotion, enabling me to move through the looping pain of the emotion. I always find Fabrice steady and comforting. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.” Andrew, NSW, Australia

Meet the Practitioners < Previous Return to Directory Next > Vicky Swahn Send an Email Languages: Swedish, English Certifications: Certified EmRes Practitioner Resolution of Physical Symptoms and Unwanted Behaviors My name is Vicky and I live in Stockholm, Sweden although I consider myself a World citizen. I began learning EmRes in 2020 and decided to go on with certification in 2021 because I had found a lifechanging tool to live a freer life. This humble yet sharp method enables me to get unstuck when old, habituated patterns of emotion and behaviour try to kidnap me😉. During this process of learning the EmRes method, my childhood dream of in some way being helpful to other people awoke and has now become true. It is such a grateful joy to walk the path of emotional release with a client! Also, in my work as a teacher in an elementary school I can now be of more help on deeper levels with EmRes. Especially with kids that already have a set negative way of dealing with conflicts and relationships that is of no gain neither for themselves nor for others. To see them interact with classmates now in an engaging, present way is wonderful. My other interests are my family, spending time in nature, Ju Shin Jutsu (I'm Renshi 3 dan) and drawing.
