A note from Erika
I am a licensed therapist with 15 years of experience working with youth & adults from diverse populations. I take pride in assisting clients with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, anger management, life transitions, and coping with grief and loss. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.
