You might be struggling with conditions like anxiety, depression, grief or addictions. I get it; many of us face unprecedented pressures and stressors today. I know how important it is for you to have open, genuine conversations where you feel truly heard and understood. After completing my MSW degree at the University of Kansas, I began practicing and have been licensed for 23 years. I have advanced training in Mindful Self Compassion therapy.

I understand grief, addiction and general overload from personal experience. Having navigated many difficult issues, it is my pleasure to help others navigate their own struggles. I offer online appointments throughout the week and in person appointments in Beaverton on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. I look forward to working with you for solutions.

I’m a licensed therapist with over 30 years of experience in addiction and mental health, including clinical and leadership roles in treatment settings. Today, I work with adults navigating addiction and recovery, anxiety, depression, stress, career challenges, and major life transitions.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, emotional overwhelm, or a significant life transition? Perhaps you’re noticing recurring patterns in your relationships, struggling with self-criticism, or feeling disconnected from yourself despite your efforts to move forward. Genuine connection, recognition, and attunement are central to my approach to therapy. I believe meaningful change develops through a collaborative relationship in which you feel genuinely heard, understood, and respected.

I’m Erica, a California Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), bringing over 20 years of experience in mental health treatment and wellness, including extensive clinical work in inpatient psychiatric care, intensive outpatient treatment, and psychotherapy. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, relationship difficulties, grief, ADHD, self-esteem concerns, and life transitions. As a former athlete, I also work with athletes facing performance anxiety, perfectionism, and identity concerns. I welcome individuals seeking practical strategies for managing symptoms, as well as those interested in developing a deeper understanding of their emotional experiences, relationships, and sense of self. I provide online psychotherapy throughout California, including Los Angeles, the San Francisco Bay Area, Orange County, and San Diego. My work integrates evidence-based treatment, relational attunement, and a whole-person perspective, with care tailored to your individual needs, circumstances, and goals.
