About Me

I’m Erika and I’ve been providing therapy and coaching services for over 13 years. I love what I do and I cannot wait to work with you on your healing journey!

At this time, my therapy focus is on healing attachment wounds, using EFT (emotionally focused therapy) with couples and EMDR + parts work with individuals.

I graduated with a Bachelors in Psychology from MWSU in 2004, and graduated with my Masters in Counseling from UMKC in 2010. I also completed 2 years of post-graduate studies from MNU in play therapy, making me a certified play therapist. I have trained and practiced extensively using EMDR, DBT, CPT, and EFT.

I approach therapy as a partnership, and use playfulness, inner child work, body awareness, mindfulness, and parts work to help you find healing.

I love helping my clients with:

  • Attachment

  • Depression

  • Trauma/PTSD

  • Loneliness/feeling stuck

  • Religious traumas

  • Couples issues (lack of closeness, infidelity, mismatched longings)

  • Dating/relationship coaching

    This is a sacred space for you, and everyone is welcome here. I support LGBTQ+ individuals & couples, and have strong ties in the LGBTQ+ community. I’m sex positive, kink friendly, ENM knowledgable. Contact me and let’s get started on your journey to healing!

We were built for connection, calm nervous systems, and closeness. Take the first step to feeling better.
