About me
I am a mental health counselor licensed in Florida with over 7 years of experience. I have worked with a diverse population including children, adults, geriatrics, foster care, low socioeconomic levels, LGBTQ community, and supporting others with varying disabilities. My counseling style is rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered, and goal oriented therapy however I believe in utilizing a variety of treatment modalities to best meet the client's need.
Reaching out for assistance can be a difficult step to take to initiate a positive change in your life. I am glad you have decided to do so. As a therapist, I would like to assist you in drawing on your personal strengths to help yourself achieve your goals. I would also like for you to express your thoughts and feelings knowing that you will be treated with dignity, respect and without judgment.

Erik is very patient, respectful, professional, understanding and supportive. I felt a good connection with him as my therapist. I recommend him to anyone who's looking for a good therapist.

Helping me through some strange times. I've learned some valuable things about myself. I'm finding paths to inner motivation.

Patient, respectful, and understanding. Erik is always there when I need to talk and I need an objective point of view.
