About Me
My name is Seth Erickson and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have extensive education and training to go along with 7 years of experience helping individuals overcome depression, anxiety and traumatic experiences. I am experienced in using multiple treatment approaches including CBT, person-centered therapy, and crisis intervention. I believe that all people have a great capacity for change and given the right opportunity, can heal and grow. My sessions allow for you to be present in the moment and not feel rushed as you work on the goals that you have set for yourself. I understand that counseling is not an exact science and will not promise that if you do “x” then “y” will happen. However, I do believe that healing and recovery can come through the counseling process. It is often hard and not always a pleasant experience. Yet, I want to be here to help you find the direction you seek and support your healing journey.

He’s great! Amazing . I like Seth
Great listener who provides good insight! He has helped me tremendously navigating my job search.
Seth is an outstanding CBT practitioner. I sought his help in getting on track with a career search that was floundering and have really found the path toward getting the job that's right for me. Highly recommend.
I’ve already begun to see positive changes in my life since starting therapy. I feel noticeably better mentally, emotionally and physically.
Seth’s ability to listen with understanding and give helpful insights has been valuable in helping me manage anxiety and depression as I navigate through a difficult life event. He is easy to talk to allowing me to feel safe discussing potentially uncomfortable subjects.
10/10 recommend
Seth says right words at right time to ease me out of my stress and help me think clearly for myself.
Very easy to talk to. Great listener. Takes time to make sure he understands the issue or my concern.
Seth is incredibly patient, caring, and kind while listening to your concerns and genuinely wants what is best for you. This was my first time seeing a therapist and I couldn't be more grateful that I was paired with Seth.
Seth has been great to work with. I've appreciated his ability to be a good listener, he provides meaningful responses and direction so I always feel like I am working towards my goals.
Seth has been great. We have spent four difficult weeks together working on past trauma, but it is worth it. I’m seeing improvement in several aspects of my life.
Seth is very approachable, a great listener, and offers great and calming insight
Seth does not just tell me what I want to hear. He has a great way of positively providing me with ideas, tools, and information that I can use to better control my emotions and understand myself. I am looking forward to many more sessions with Seth.
Seth is simply amazing. He takes the time to really listen, he isn't pushy, and he makes sure to clarify that he understands what your saying so he did not misinterpret the meaning in your statements!! 100% would recommend him!
I’ve had a few chat sessions and meetings with Seth. He is a great listener and helpful!
