Are you ready to become the happiest, healthiest, most self-aware and authentic version of yourself? If so, reach out and join me as we embark on a powerful healing journey together. Healing can be isolating and fear provoking, but know that you are not alone. I am here to help guide you and let your soul shine. My purpose in life is to guide others in therapy so that they can feel full of light and joy, despite the heartaches of this human condition. My mission is to help you heal yourself. Everything is already within you. Sometimes we just need an external spark to light our flame.

One of my philosophies of life is that although we cannot always control our experiences and circumstances, we can choose our responses to them and dive into how they affect and influence us as humans. We can then learn to understand how life mirrors to us the way we relate to ourselves. I believe life is change; growth optional. We ultimately have the capacity to grow if we allow ourselves to, as acknowledging change is allowing it to happen while it unfolds.

Reaching out can be insanely difficult and vulnerable at times, I get it. Come in, have some tea, see if the connection feels right for you. I'm here to offer my heart, love, guidance, resources and a safe cozy space for sharing and moving through what may be stuck or needing extra attention. I am here to wade through the gunk with you and also to help you see through and beyond it. At times that means I might direct and re-direct you away from the story, away from the chatter and the thoughts and into your body, connecting with your nervous system, with your sensations, with your authentic self.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and received a Master's degree in Somatic Psychology, (Body Psychotherapy) from Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. I have significant experience working with families, adolescents, children, and adults all over the world. Among other extensive work with children from 2 to 18 years, I have worked with orphans in Mexico that were survivors of significant trauma and abuse and in Colombia with a group of displaced women, survivors of war. My therapeutic focus centers on the integration of the body and the mind in order to help my clients flourish.

Only the strongest and most courageous know when it is time to get help. Together we can work through nearly any difficulty. I personalize my counseling and coaching practices based on your or your family's needs, using effective, yet gentle and powerful, proven methods. With 25+ years in practice working with people who have depression, anxiety, OCD, childhood/teen behavioral concerns, ADHD, trauma, autism spectrum disorders, and adjustments to significant life changes, I have the experience to meet your needs . Not sure if counseling or coaching is right for you? Please call me for a free consultation. Warmest regards, Erin

I specialize in working with individuals who have suffered traumatic childhoods (sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, neglect, domestic violence) or traumatic experiences in adulthood and are in need of trauma-informed therapy. Symptoms include difficulty trusting others, feeling terminally alone, experiencing overwhelming emotions, a fear of abandonment or engulfment, experiencing flashbacks, feeling worried and anxious about bad things happening, struggling with body dysmorphia or disordered eating, engaging in self-harm, substance abuse issues, feelings of persistent hopelessness, suicidality, or feelings of unworthiness.

I want to live in a world where all girls and women feel connected to themselves and trust the magnitude and depth of their own brilliance. I have found my unique way of contributing to this vision as a psychotherapist and coach. My personal mission is to serve as a powerful conduit of love and compassion in the world. I am here to guide you along your healing journey. Each one of us is on a unique path, we have specific challenges to face and as your witness, confidant and guide, together we will respectfully catalyze your growth.

New Year, New Time to refresh yourself and your goals. I can support you or your older adolescent to live a happier, healthier life. Some of the many issues I've helped my clients with include: trouble focusing, feeling anxious, depressed, lethargic, overwhelmed, indecisive, chronic procrastination, issues with relationships, insomnia, ruminating/overthinking. Do you want to quit smoking or drinking? Exercise more? Would you like to fulfill more of your goals and dreams? Live a more creative and/or adventurous way? I can help you identify where you want to go.

We all contain the inner wisdom to heal ourselves and move towards being an authentic, positive and loving person. The courage to be vulnerable -by moving toward our pain and confusion as well as our joy- utterly transforms and frees us. I am honored to enter into the sacred space of therapy together with my clients. I use an integrative, trauma informed, and strength based approach combining empathy, mindfulness, and radical acceptance as well as a plethora of therapeutic tools (ie--imagery, parts work, role play, body/somatic awareness). I have a passionate social justice orientation and am experienced in a wide breadth of issues.

As a parent do you feel overwhelmed? Do you feel as if you have tried everything but nothing works? I can help you and your child persevere through life’s challenges to overcome anxiety, anger, trauma, loss, perfectionism, and adjustment issues. With compassion, perceptiveness, and humor I provide in person play therapy for children ages 4 to 13. In a safe place your child can express his or her feelings, resolve problems, and learn essential life skills.

If you are smart and successful and maybe even feel like you should know how to stop feeling anxious on your own, but it just isn't working, then Im your person. It is hard to keep going, hoping it will just get better. Trying everything you think should help and it doesn't is exhausting and a waste of time. There is no substitute for talking with a well informed therapist that you really connect with. I've decades of experience helping people master their anxiety and feeling more comfortable in their lives. I'm easy to talk to and I can help you feel free of the weight of anxiety.

I am dedicated to working with people who want to get at the roots of their emotional pain and distress. My fundamental approach to treatment is relational. Therapy is a process where we will develop an alliance in which your emotional and developmental needs are made a priority. Over time, an internalized healing space forms where you can recover access to parts of your true self. Speaking freely without unnecessary self-censorship may be simple, but it is not easy. I encourage you to try it.
