Hi there, I'm Erick!

I became a therapist because people are often stronger and more resilient than they realize. My goal is to create a safe, collaborative space where you feel heard and walk away with practical tools, not just insight. Together we'll figure out what's blocking you and work on skills you can use day-to-day, so progress feels real.

My focus

Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, or just trying to make sense of life’s challenges, I understand that change can feel daunting—and that’s where I come in. Together, we’ll use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to reframe those thoughts and build healthier mental habits. I’m here to support you every step of the way.

My approach

My approach to therapy is eclectic, collaborative, and tailored to your needs. I draw from evidence-based approaches including CBT and positive psychology to help you better understand yourself and create meaningful, lasting change. Together we'll identify patterns that may be keeping you stuck, develop practical coping strategies and build skills.
