Emotional Recognition Baseline Therapy

California Clinical Pilot Program
Now Accepting Waitlist | February 2026

Navigate Your Emotions.
Process What You're Feeling.

If you've ever felt like you have too many emotions at once, like you're on an emotional roller coaster, or emotions come out of nowhere—this program can help.

ERBT teaches you to recognize what you're feeling, calm your nervous system, and move through emotions instead of getting stuck in them.

The Problem

You're exhausted. Your emotions feel too big to manage. You've tried meditation, therapy, apps, books—but nothing sticks.You're not broken. You just haven't learned how to process emotions, only how to survive them.

The Solution

Emotional Recognition Baseline Therapy is a neuroscience-informed framework that helps you navigate and process emotions in real time.It's not about eliminating difficult emotions. It's about building the capacity to feel them, understand them, and move through them without being consumed.

How ERBT Works

Safety, Presence, Joy

ERBT is grounded in the Integrated Valence Theory of Safety, Presence, and Joy. Rather than labeling emotions as "good" or "bad," we treat them as information.

Safety: Am I protected enough to be authentic?

Presence: How much usable attention do I have right now?

Joy: Do I feel connected to what matters to me?

When you can answer these questions, you know what you need in the moment.

Chair of JOY® – Your 60-Second Reset

A simple, four-step practice you can use anytime emotions feel overwhelming:

Sit. Pause and ground yourself.
Breathe. Calm your nervous system.
Think. Engage your awareness.
Feel. Allow emotion without judgment.

Real People. Real Emotions. Real Shifts.

These are real people. Real situations. Real moments when the JQ system made all the difference.

Devin, 52, Marketing Executive

A major client contract was on the line and Devin knew his job was at risk. He felt frustration toward his team, pressure to perform, and fear of losing the deal. Instead of rushing in reactive, he used the JQ tools to name his emotions and mentally prepare. That shift gave him a new perspective. He walked into the meeting clear and confident. The client stayed.

Breanna, 38, Federal Employee

Breanna was deep in grief after losing her brother. She kept showing up to work but felt numb, defeated, and disconnected. She began using the JQ system and, little by little, started processing her emotions instead of avoiding them. She began to feel again, both the sadness and the joy of remembering him. It didn't fix the pain, but it gave her space to carry it with strength.

Noah and Eli, 24 and 28, Surgical Technicians

Heading into a procedure with a demanding surgeon, Noah and Eli were dreading the tension and pressure ahead. They used their JQ tools before scrubbing in to sort through emotions like anxiety, resentment, and fear. By the time they entered the OR, their energy had shifted. They approached the surgeon with calm focus, and the entire room responded. The operation ran smoother than expected.

Morgan, 35, Working Mom of Three

Most mornings felt impossible. Morgan found herself overwhelmed, pleading with her kids to cooperate, then grabbing fast food and feeling shame before even getting to work. With the JQ tools, she began checking in with herself before the day began. She showed up more grounded and began helping her children do the same. Their mornings are still busy, but now they're full of connection, healthy breakfasts, and less chaos.

Walter, 90, Vietnam Veteran

Walter held his memories close for decades, stories of pain, sacrifice, and the loss of his platoon. He rarely spoke about the war, and the emotions had built up over a lifetime. After using the JQ system in a quiet, supportive setting, he shared a story no one had ever heard. That moment opened a door. Over time, he chose to stop numbing and began honoring his own healing.

Client Reflections

"Now I can name exactly what I'm feeling and do something about it."
"This is the easiest way I've ever understood emotions."
"I can finally breathe when I'm overwhelmed."
"I stopped numbing and started feeling."
"My relationships are better because I'm actually present."
"I have a tool I can use anywhere, anytime."
"I finally understand what my body is trying to tell me."
"This gave me permission to feel without judgment."
"We're all fighting invisible battles. I finally stopped hiding mine."
