Hello! My name is Erika and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have been in behavioral heath since 2009 and have been a therapist for eight years. I typically work with adolescents and adults in the areas of neurodivergence (including ADHD), depression, anxiety, trauma, and other challenges that may affect your life. My goal is to help you achieve your goals. I take a person-centered approach and am genuinely invested in helping you to live your best life

I typically use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, EMDR, and Cognitive Processing Therapy. You can expect a non judgmental and safe therapeutic environment.

Taking this first step to explore therapy is your key to empowerment and healing. I encourage you to schedule an appointment to get started right away. I hope to talk to you soon.

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) currently accepting new clients in person at the Phoenix Thriveworks location, as well as virtually throughout Arizona, Ohio, and Minnesota. I hold a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grand Canyon University. I work with individuals and couples and some of my specialties are anxiety, depression, affair recovery, chronic illness, and women's issues.

I work with both individuals and couples, providing a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental space for growth and healing. My therapeutic approach integrates a range of evidence-based modalities, including Person-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).

With warmth and compassion, I tailor my work to meet each client’s unique needs and goals. Whether helping individuals navigate personal challenges exposed from trauma history, or supporting couples in deepening their connection, I focus on addressing root causes, fostering empowerment, and guiding clients toward lasting emotional wellbeing

As a licensed professional counselor, I have educational backgrounds in Sport & Exercise Psychology and Counseling Psychology from working with youth through professional athletes. I am a Certified Personality Disorder Treatment provider and am currently pursuing my Mental Performance Consulting certification. I have worked in private practice and community mental health with children, teens, and adults, addressing depression, anxiety, trauma, substance use, and relationship conflicts. Currently, I work with individuals motivated to improve their mental performance, career development, financial psychology, identity, and wellness.

I enjoy helping clients identify their strengths, build confidence through thought-provoking questions and exercises, develop coping skills, and accept uncontrollable outcomes. I use mental performance strategies and positive psychology to build resilience and self-esteem so clients can craft new narratives and grow through difficult circumstances.

My goal is to provide a safe, judgment-free space where you can talk freely about your concerns and work through them to increase your well-being. You are showing positive steps by reaching out. I look forward to helping you find creative solutions, empowering your self-esteem, building new pathways of success, and sustaining meaningful purpose in your life.

I am a licensed associate counselor (LAC) dedicated to providing a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel seen, heard, and understood. I have experience working with individuals across the lifespan and from diverse backgrounds, supporting them through a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, trauma, stress, life transitions, and women's issues. I also have a strong passion for working with neurodiverse individuals. I help individuals understand their emotions, build confidence and skills to navigate the world around them better. 

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and tailored to each client's unique needs. I draw from evidence-based modalities such as CBT, DBT, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Person-Centered Therapy to help clients understand the root of their challenges, develop coping strategies, improve emotional regulation, and create meaningful goals for change. 

I strive to create a space where clients feel safe to explore. Many come in feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves. Together, we work on building self-awareness, strengthening self-esteem, and fostering resilience—finding their voice, setting healthy boundaries, and moving toward a balanced and fulfilling life. I'd love to work with you!

Hi, I'm Kiersten, a licensed clinical social worker dedicated to helping individuals navigate life's challenges. I work with individuals throughout the lifespan struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and self-esteem. My approach is shaped by professional training and lived experiences, grounded in the belief that healing happens when people feel truly seen and accepted. Many of my clients feel overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, or stuck. They come to therapy wanting to understand themselves, develop coping skills, heal from the past, and strengthen relationships.

My approach is collaborative, compassionate, and individualized. I integrate evidence-based approaches including EMDR, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and Sandtray Therapy to meet your unique needs. Our work is guided by your goals and what feels most supportive.

Reaching out for support takes courage, and you don't have to navigate this alone. I'll meet you with compassion and authenticity, genuinely committed to helping you feel seen and supported. I hope to provide a space where you feel accepted and encouraged moving forward. If you feel we may be a good fit, I invite you to schedule an appointment.
