Hello! My name is Erika White and I am a licensed psychologist. I specialize in working with adults who have experienced trauma and are having difficulty recovering, are depressed, and/or are having difficulties sleeping. You may also notice that you are feeling less social, more irritable, struggling with day-to-day tasks, and finding it difficult to connect with others as you would like.
I can help by better understanding your current concerns and goals for therapy. With that, we can work on your concerns through exploring the ways you think, how that makes you feel, and how that impacts how you act. In our first few sessions, you can expect us to get to know each other better and make a plan to assist you in reaching your goals.
My practice is unique in that I have a passion for this work and have a deep gratitude for the privilege to be able to work with other humans in this way. Additionally, I understand that choosing the right therapist for you is truly valuable. If you choose to work with me or another provider, I wish you the best. Congratulations on taking this step!

It is a passion of mine to help people recover from events that have altered their lives. During treatment, we will explore how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors may not be serving you at this time. In session, I will discuss various strategies for you to use in your daily life. In between sessions, I will encourage activities to help bring about the changes that you seek.
