With over 40 years of experience as a clinical social worker, I hold a deep respect for the uniqueness of each person's story. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic theory, which means I work with you to explore how past experiences may be shaping your current thoughts, emotions, and relationships.

I offer a safe supportive virtual space for older teens and adults who are ready to reflect, grow, and move toward lasting change. Whether you're navigation anxiety, trauma, life transitions, or high-conflict relationship dynamics, I bring warmth, insight, and seasoned clinical skill to help you better understand yourself and create a more fulfilling life.

My name is Janet VanScoyk, I studied at the University of Wyoming where I graduated with my master's in social work. Soon after I graduated, we moved to Arizona, and I have been practicing in the Gila Valley for the past 10 years.

If anxiety, depression, or the weight of past trauma has started to feel like it's steering your life instead of you, that's exactly where I do my best work. I'm Erica, a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor, and I think of myself as your therapeutic GPS — you set the destination, and I help you find the route. I work with children, teens, adults, and couples, and I bring genuine respect, real-world knowledge, and yes, some humor to every session, because feeling comfortable with your therapist actually matters for getting better.

My clients are the “overthinkers” in the world...with big feelings that are hard to explain. They feel misunderstood, lonely and isolated while striving to please others at the expense of themselves. They’re exhausted, overworked, and over-stressed, feeling like they’re never enough. They have a vision for life, but aren’t sure how to bring it together, especially after a life-changing event. They're also eager for change.

Does this sound like you? If so, I warmly welcome you to my practice.

Many adults come to therapy wondering, "What's wrong with me?" I believe a more helpful question is, "What has shaped my experience, and what makes sense about the way I think, feel, and respond?" Lasting change begins with understanding yourself—not fixing yourself.

I have a special passion for working with neurodivergent adults, including those with ADHD, autism, and AuDHD, as well as adults navigating anxiety, trauma, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm. Whether you've spent years masking, feeling misunderstood, or believing you simply needed to "try harder," therapy can be a place to better understand yourself with curiosity and compassion instead of self-criticism.

I earned my Master of Science in Professional Counseling from Grand Canyon University and bring over 10 years of clinical experience supporting adults with a wide range of mental health challenges, including serious mental illness (SMI), trauma, anxiety, and depression. These experiences have strengthened my belief that healing happens in relationships where people feel genuinely seen, respected, and accepted without judgment.

My goal is to help you understand how your mind, emotions, nervous system, and experiences shape the way you move through the world so we can build practical strategies that fit your life—not someone else's expectations. I believe therapy isn't about becoming a different person; it's about understanding yourself more deeply so you can live more authentically, navigate life's challenges with greater confidence, and create meaningful, lasting change.

I help adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and sleep issues feel more stable, focused, and in control of their lives.

I understand that reaching out for help can feel overwhelming. My goal is to create a safe, respectful, and nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported.

I believe that it is important for everyone to know that they matter! While the content is serious in nature, I imbue a bit of levity and hope as appropriate.

I am motivated to help motivate and assist others to take the steps necessary in combating challenges and improving their quality of life.

I have worked with all ages, with professional experience spanning mental health, behavioral care, education, business, writing and more. I enjoy time with family & friends, fishing, crabbing, sports, writing, cooking, music, the great outdoors and more.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 15 years of clinical experience specializing in addiction, gambling disorder, trauma, mood disorders, and co-occurring disorders. I am passionate about helping individuals and families break free from cycles of addiction and emotional pain so they can reclaim their lives with purpose, connection, and hope.

I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health and have worked in behavioral health since 2016, with experience in both community mental health and crisis settings. I work with individuals and couples navigating trauma, relationship challenges, emotional regulation, life transitions, and complex personal experiences.

My approach is collaborative, direct, and compassionate. I draw from Narrative Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Gottman Method couples counseling, along with trauma-informed practices supported by training through the Arizona Trauma Institute and the Southern Arizona Center Against Sexual Assault.

I strive to create a space where clients feel genuinely heard without judgment. I understand that life can include painful, complicated, and deeply personal experiences, and I believe therapy should be a place where those parts of your story can be explored safely and openly.
