About me

Everyone needs assistance and guidance from time to time. I have spent the majority of my career in mental health working with the homeless population, youth and individuals with severe mental health concerns. I have helped individuals to navigate a variety of issues. I am comfortable working with individuals who are on the Autism Spectrum, and the LGBTQIA+ population. I believe people should be allowed to grow and progress from whatever type of issues they are struggling with while being treating with compassion, respect and care. Each client should leave a session with tools they can implement in their own lives, even if that is just the release of being able to talk about their troubles or concerns. I approach therapy with a variety of modalities including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Sometimes our emotions just become too much for us to deal with on our own. I believe my sessions are compassionate, yet challenging enough to help you grow. My experience is not only academic but personal as well. I hope that you will benefit from speaking with me, and I can help you enrich your life, work toward your goals, and reach your full potential.

She is very intune with not only my feelings but with her advice and how it makes me feel. I never feel threatened but I feel a caring side from her advice.

Erika is a fantastic therapist. She has been attentive, supportive, helpful, understanding, and compassionate in a way that directly relates with my feelings, trauma, and experience. She takes the time to get through the extra curricular portion of our sessions and for that, I am so grateful. She is relatable, kind, intelligent, and genuine. I appreciate her attention, support, and knowledge in helping me navigate a very challenging and difficult time in my life. She has given me the tools and assignments I need to process my unique experience. I feel fully seen, heard, and supported by her. My last therapist did not engage with me to the degree that I get with Erika and the results on my psyche and state of mind are substantial. I have nothing but positive things to say about her and would recommend her for anyone going through a rough place in their life. Thank you.
