Hi all - My name is Erica and I've been a practicing clinical social worker since 2013. My approach to therapy is flexible because your needs every session may not look or sound the same every time. I'm ready to meet you where you are at. From students away from home for the first time, to adult-learners, Veterans, to musicians or doctoral-candidates, those of you looking for short-term solutions or long-term collaboration...however you identify I am committed to help. I want you to feel safe, empowered, and connected throughout your entire therapy experience. While life transitions, depression, anxiety, and interpersonal issues are my specialties, let's discuss what your needs are and how I can help. Outside of the therapy world, I enjoy reading, playing Fortnite, golfing, and spending time with my husband, our toddler, and our family and friends.

Reaching out for support can be hard, but you are not alone. Everyone has experienced their own life journey which can involve grief/loss, relational ruptures, parenting struggles or trauma. Sometimes this journey can leave adults in a place where it is hard to find the motivation to complete everyday tasks, manage life stress or have patience with our loved ones. This can be true for children too, which may cause them to struggle in school, have emotional outbursts or display signs of anxiety. No matter what is bringing you, your child, or family to this moment in time, I am honored to be a part of your journey. With 7+ years of experience working with adults, teens, children and infants I am well versed in several different therapeutic techniques that can be adapted to fit each person’s needs. In addition to being a clinical social worker, I am also a Registered Play Therapist and have extensive training in providing Infant/Child-Parent Psychotheray. It is crucial to healing to find a therapist that is the right fit. I believe that meaningful change comes from having a safe space where you can bring your true and authentic self without judgement; this is true for both adults and children. My goal is not to have the answers but to partner with you through the journey of healing and discovering yourself.

Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner
West Seneca, NY
Accepting new clients

I work best with college students and young adults who may be feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, distracted, emotionally exhausted, or unsure of how to manage school alongside other life demands. Many of my clients are navigating ADHD symptoms, sleep difficulties, relationship concerns, identity exploration, family expectations, trauma, or major life transitions. My approach is supportive, collaborative, and judgment-free. I take time to understand the whole person—not only their symptoms—including sleep, nutrition, stress, daily routines, physical health, culture, and personal goals. Together, we develop a realistic treatment plan that may include medication, healthy lifestyle changes, and coordination with a therapist or other healthcare providers. I especially welcome students from BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ communities who are looking for care that respects their identity and lived experiences.
