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.
Do you struggle with anxiety, depression, poor self-esteem, negative thoughts, unhealthy relationships or the inability to say NO! Are you tired of feeling like nothing will change or your stuck in life because you don't know what to do to make it better? I focus on adults using CBT, REBT, Person Centered and Motivational interviewing to assist clients in learning more about themselves and their perspective on life. I have experience working with many different mental health disorders including depression, anxiety, stress, marital/relationship issues and career struggles to name a few.
Something brought you here — and that matters. Reaching out for support takes self-awareness and courage, and it's often the first real step toward change.
I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Certified Employee Assistance Professional with more than 20 years of experience helping children, teens, and adults move through some of life's most challenging moments. Over two decades, I've learned one consistent truth: when people learn to recognize their own strengths, they're far better equipped to overcome what's holding them back.
My approach is direct but warm — I meet you where you are, not where I think you should be.
Reaching out can be hard and I am here to help begin the process of healing and being there to help us become a better you. My goal and desire is to help teach you and provide you the essentials to overcome your obstacles. When life gets overwhelming at times, we forget to take care of ourselves. Depression and anxiety does not have to be a part of your everyday life.
Welcome to the first step of the rest of your life. Deciding to begin your therapeutic journey can feel overwhelming and sometimes impossible. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I’m passionate about helping people feel heard, understood, and empowered. I strive to create a supportive environment where clients can explore their experiences and build the tools they need to move forward. My approach is collaborative and grounded in respect for each person’s unique story and strengths.
You’ve been carrying a lot on your own for a long time. On the outside you seem like you’re holding it together, but inside you might feel anxious, low, overwhelmed, or weighed down by past experiences and current stress. I’m Amanda, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and EMDR-trained therapist, and I work with adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, major life transitions, and relationship challenges. You don’t need the “right” words or a polished story here—my goal is to offer a warm, grounded space where you feel safe, respected, and truly heard so we can make sense of what’s happening and help you feel more steady and hopeful.
I believe everyone deserves a safe, supportive place to talk through life’s challenges. For the past 19 years, I have worked with individuals and families navigating difficult moments, helping them find clarity, healing, and renewed strength. I work with clients of all ages and backgrounds, and I have a special passion for supporting people through grief and major life transitions.
Life can bring unexpected changes such as the loss of a loved one, relationship shifts, career changes, or other transitions that leave you feeling overwhelmed or unsure of the next step. My goal is to provide a compassionate space where you can process your experiences, feel truly heard, and begin to move forward at your own pace.
Throughout my career, I have supported clients facing grief, anxiety, stress, and life adjustments. I strive to create a warm, non-judgmental environment where you can be yourself and feel supported as we work together toward healing and growth.
