I'm a military veteran who served in the 82nd Airborne and spouse of a veteran turned first responder. I bring a multilayered, experienced approach to understanding what you're going through. My family is blended, and we've navigated that dynamic for over a decade.

“She truly listens, stays accountable to both me and herself, is up front, honest, and isn't afraid to meet me exactly where I am and go where I need to go. I particularly appreciate her personal touches that make me feel more connected and understood during our sessions. I'm pretty sure she could treat someone with any level of experience in therapy. I, personally, have been at this over 20 years with lots of experience, many modalities, and lots of study. It is difficult for me to find a therapist that can keep up AND wrangle me when necessary, and Ericka is simply a real person that is very good at what she does. So glad I finally found her! I also know that no matter what happens in our professional relationship, perceived positive or negative, we WILL talk through it and she makes it a SAFE place to explore and better understand whatever I'm experiencing. Simply, I feel safe, heard, and appreciated as a person for my struggles and my striving, as a client of Ericka Paez.”
