Everyone needs a safe space to talk about life's difficult moments. Creating that safe/non-judgemental space is my primary goal in every session. Using a supportive and collaborative approach, I aim to help you develop insight and awareness into your struggles in order to foster healing and growth. I believe in meeting you where you are and walking beside you throughout your journey of enlightenment.

Do others look at you and think you “have it all together”? You appear successful on the outside (and you have so much to be proud of), but inside you feel anxious, critical of yourself, & overwhelmed. You’re constantly questioning yourself: Am I good enough? Did I do it right? Did I say that wrong? You may look back on your life and notice experiences from your past that have made it difficult to feel confident in everything you have to offer. It feels like you live in worst-case-scenario mode at all times, and while you want so badly to feel less stressed & more secure in yourself, you haven’t been able to change this on your own.

I am a clinical psychologist and success coach with over 30 years experience in helping people to solve problems, grow, and transform their lives. As a psychotherapist, I work via telephone, video conferencing, and office visits with clients residing in Texas and North Carolina. I use a variety of approaches and techniques to help you resolve your problems and to reach you full potential. I provide guidance & knowledgeable feedback to support you to reach your goals and discover your answers to life's often perplexing questions. I work as your ally in making important life decisions and changes.

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

Therapy is a partnership that grows in an atmosphere of safety and acceptance. It allows one to rediscover the parts of selves which may have been disowned; to learn new skills to handle grief and distress; to build healthier, more nurturing relationships; and to gain access to one's own direct experience of the world. I nurture this collaboration with clients and recognize that within each of us there exists a deeper wisdom that, given adequate support, naturally moves toward healing and integration.

Maybe you're newly single, or new to town, and you despair because you're lonely, you feel lost, and you wonder if things will ever get better. Perhaps you have a history of complicated relationships, and you've noticed you repeat the same cycle but can't stop. Or could it be you say yes... to everything and everyone, and now you're burned out and resentful. Getting up in the morning is a struggle. You're on the verge of crying. You're lashing out. Whatever is going on, your situation is leaving you anxious, discouraged, and even hopeless at times. Sometimes life circumstances feel overwhelming, confusing, or just plain hard.

As your therapist, I'm here to provide a warm and supportive space where you can talk freely without being judged. I won't just sit quietly – instead, I'll ask questions, offer suggestions, and reflect on what you share. Together, we'll work on dealing with the things that might be bothering you in your everyday life, whether that be challenges with relationships, work, or family. Our goal is to help you feel better, be true to who you are, and improve your relationships. And along the way, you'll get valuable skills to reduce stress and move your life forward.

Currently Accepting new clients. I believe the mind, body, and spirit are all involved in being in a healthy place mentally. I strive for my therapy sessions with you to be a safe place where you can talk freely and feel comfortable. I focus on cognitive behavioral therapy but also draw from mindfulness, meditation, strengths perspective, DBT, and more. Our goal is to figure out any trauma (when you are ready), discover coping skills that work for you, and change your whole perspective on yourself and life - in a good way. I accept insurance from major insurance companies, and also private pay.

Do you often feel weighed down by life's pressures or feelings of anxiety?” or, “If you find it difficult to make friends and experience loneliness regularly as a result, come talk to me. Together, we will work on strategies that allow you to address the root causes of your difficulties and build meaningful connections.”

Specialized in Couples, Young Adults, Adults, and Trauma. You'd never imagine that life could be this difficult. You are either "adulting" or in a relationship. Stressors are accumulating and you are not doing so well. Maybe it's anxiety or you're feeling down. Perhaps you or your partner are not happy with each other or with the relationship. Either way, it is time to get help from the best therapist you can find. Singles and couples that come to Tampa Therapy & Wellness leave with a lot of tools that make their lives better, reduce stress, and form better relationships. It's your time now. Call us.

I believe that therapy offers a beneficial way to find a different perspective on difficult situations and that people who make the decision to see a therapist are looking for a way to improve those situations. We can always learn new ways to make our lives and relationships better. With empathy and compassion, I help clients find resolution to a wide range of personal concerns and psychological issues. I have worked at psychiatric hospitals, addiction residential facilities as well as outpatient settings and have over 25 years’ experience working with clients from a family systems approach.

So what IS therapy? Does it mean that I am crazy? Is something wrong with me? Will I be judged? No, no, and no. Despite what our peers may tell us or what we our culture has told us, therapy provides an opportunity to process your thoughts, feelings, and emotions in a safe place. It can be very instrumental in helping individuals work on resolving problems/issues, craft achievable goals, learn new patterns of thinking, and develop healthy strategies to cope with certain life challenges and difficulties in an effort to enhance overall mental health and well-being. There are just so many benefits to choosing therapy!
