Dr. Trine Erichsen

Therapist

Virtual • Massachusetts


I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Massachusetts with over 30 years of clinical experience across some of the most demanding settings in the field, including inpatient and crisis care, women's addiction treatment, school counseling, and long-term individual therapy. I am also a certified Christian counselor, which means I welcome clients who want faith to be part of their healing without it feeling forced or out of place. My work has taken me from evaluating and triaging crisis intervention, individual and group long term therapy, directing a residential substance use program and supporting students with learning, developmental and adjustment challenges. Through it all, one thing has stayed the same: I genuinely care about the people sitting across from me. I bring a genuine, compassionate, and patient presence to every session. I am passionate about my helping others and I am not the kind of therapist who watches the clock.
