I provide individual therapy to adults and adolescents, and focus on women's issues.
Counseling is an opportunity to work on the things in life that are causing you problems or keeping you from achieving your goals. This may be due to current life stressors, grief and loss, relationship issues, recent changes, or may be issues related to anxiety, depression or trauma. My goal is to help you remove the obstacles that prevent you from being the best version of yourself. I would be honored to work together to help you to heal from and overcome the experiences in your life that are affecting you most.

Hi there, I am Erisa. Have you ever felt stuck, alone, or overwhelmed by challenges that life throws at you? Are you looking for a safe space where you can be your true self and process through unresolved painful events? I truly believe that you are capable of overcoming hardships on your own, however that sometimes it can get really intense and difficult to cope alone. I support teens and young adults sailing through life transitions (career changes, schools, relationships, moves, decision making/problem solving, and countless life stressors).

I work with adults experiencing anxiety and depression and am also trained in EMDR therapy to address past trauma.
Do you feel that life is more difficult than it should be? Are you feeling overburdened by worry or pulled down by hopelessness? These feelings are common and symptoms of anxiety and depression do a good job of making us feel pessimistic about getting past such struggles.If you're willing to be honest and have an idea of how you'd like your life to be different, therapy can help you overcome many personal challenges.

Using strengths-focused testing, evaluation and counseling approaches, I work with children, teens and young adults (18-25) to foster talents, identify needs, and enhance skills.
Are you struggling and uncertain how to overcome the barriers you feel ahead of you? Is your child overwhelmed and seemingly unable to achieve up to potential, worried about things in life, or having trouble focusing and getting things done? Talented people can lose sight of their many strengths, and need support in figuring out what is keeping them from functioning at their best.

For many people it is hard to ask for help when it comes to sorting out the challenges of life. Making the decision to seek assistance from a therapist is courageous and can be rewarded with a safe, warm and supportive therapy environment.
