I believe we all need to be heard and valued, and this plays an important role in how I approach therapy. By creating a safe space to allow clients to open up, we can together unpack the presenting issues to allow for growth and healing. I use a combination of therapeutic approaches, as I don’t believe there is a one size fits all solution. I believe we all have the potential to live satisfying, enriching lives, and my goal is to help clients work through challenges to allow them to thrive.

Loss can be a shattering experience.

You're not even sure how to pick up the pieces, let alone how to rebuild your life. Yet, much like kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery with gold, therapy can offer you a place to rebuild your shattered spirit in a transformational way. Working together, I aim to empower you to rebuild your life in line with what matters most to you using your own unique strengths, talents, and life experiences.

I appreciate your willingness to take the time to put yourself first and look for a new therapist.

I want to provide you with a safe, secure environment to explore hard topics while incorporating different skills and tools that you can utilize regularly. The space and time is yours!

I understand that individuals need a safe space to share and discuss the issues that they face, whether it be life stressors or relationship problems. As a therapist, I encourage authenticity, so that we can work together to explore and create the best solutions.

I offer an empathic environment so that one feels seen, heard, and supported throughout the counseling journey .

Hi – I’m Vicki – thank you for taking the time to look at my bio. No matter what you’re going through right now, please know that there is more right with you than there is wrong.

At some point in our lives we all experience the full force of life’s challenges. Sometimes the distress, pain, alienation or isolation is too intense for us to traverse life’s path alone. Yet, for many of us, asking for help or inviting others into our private world is equally difficult. I hope to convince you that therapy can help us understand conflicts underlying these challenges. Through insight, self-empowerment and enhanced emotional regulation, we can become more adaptive and begin to heal and grow in the face of challenges or transitions. Therapy can also help to cultivate a greater sense of meaning and purpose in our live.

Welcome, my name is Erika! My work focuses on providing culturally responsive, anti-oppressive, and affirming therapeutic services to BIPOC and LGBTQ+ folks experiencing anxiety, depression, generational trauma, immigrant struggles, and race/ethnic identity exploration. I work from a trauma-informed lens that explores childhood experiences, relational attachments, cultural environments, and how the brain/body is developmentally affected through traumatic experiences. I integrate somatic approaches such as EMDR, parts work, DBT, the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics (NMT) and mindfulness to address and process trauma.

I strive to bring warmth, intelligence and even humor to my work. While therapy is not about telling people what to do, I am always actively engaged in trying to help my clients gain insight into themselves. My goal is to help clients remove the obstacles in their way and achieve greater happiness in themselves, their relationships, their careers, and their lives as a whole. I consider it a privilege to work with my clients in the gratifying and life changing art and science of psychotherapy.

I work best with clients who are experiencing depression, anxiety, trauma or life stress. I prefer to work with clients who are interested in exploring together the root of the problem that impacts your life. We will explore together the goals you hope to achieve in therapy. I am here to partner with you to work through the issues that are causing you disruption in your life, and to help you meet your goals. This may include worksheets (outside of session), exploring cognitive stuck points (errors) that keep someone stuck in unhealthy patterns, and other interventions that can be useful in daily life.

My primary focus is adults presenting with histories of early and/or chronic trauma (Complex or Developmental Trauma).
