Waitlist for new clients
I want you to feel seen and heard. Through compassion and empathic presence, I offer a safe space for you to heal, grow and come to more self-understanding, self- awareness and most importantly, self-acceptance. Do you ever feel stuck in the same cycles of life? Do you ever feel like you know what you "should" do but somehow you continue to end up in the same patterns? We all have to navigate the complexities of our lives and sometimes it makes all the difference to have a professional therapist to help navigate it with you.

I enjoy working with clients of all ages. My specialty is children, adolescents and young adults. I am relationship based, meaning it is important for my clients to feel comfortable with me. . I incorporate educational information and skill development into sessions and role model and practice new skills. Cognitive behavior therapy is the foundation for much of the work we do. Children often express their feelings best in play. I often utilize games, art , stories and imaginative play to help children communicate their feelings. Parents of children are integral to the success of therapy and become partners in the treatment of their son or daughter.

Through play and music therapy, we can devise plans, which help one find their calm, and recognize worn patterns, allowing one to initiate positive change. Play and music therapy works whether you are young, transitional age, or a mature adult finding your way through changes in life. Music therapy has positive impacts reconnecting our mind, and emotions to our body through the discovery of underlying patterns and deeper psychology. These patterns sometimes cause negativity or depressive behaviors. Individuals who become aware of these patterns are better able to free their self from well-worn paths no longer serving positive ways.

How will you know when you don't need to come here anymore? We explore together where the client is at in their journey and what is working and not working for them. I then help the Client to identify what they want to have different in their life and collaborate with them to develop the plan of how to achieve it. My focus is on balance and moderation in all areas of life. I work with clients via telemedicine sessions for both talk therapy & EMDR. Please email or call to explore if we would be a good working team.

Dr. Erin Haven believes that relationships are central to the human experience. Our early interactions "“ combined with our biology and learning experiences "“ set the foundation for how we view ourselves and the world. And while those early relationships and experiences shape us, they do not have to define us. She finds it rewarding to support youth and young adults (ages 6-24) as they develop their identity and foster independence.
