Hi there — I’m Erika, a clinical social worker who’s passionate about helping kids, teens, and young adults feel understood, supported, and empowered. Therapy doesn’t have to feel scary or boring — my goal is to make it a safe space where you can be yourself, ask questions, and explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment.

I bring a wide cultural perspective to my work. I’m an immigrant who spent most of my life abroad, and I come from a Hispanic and Italian family. This background helps me understand and appreciate different cultures, traditions, and ways of seeing the world — something I love sharing with the people I work with.

Outside of therapy, I’m all about connection, curiosity, and creativity. I’m passionate about my pets (who sometimes sneak into my video calls!), love traveling to new places, and get excited about exploring new foods and culinary experiences. These interests aren’t just hobbies — they reflect my belief that life is richer when we’re open to new ideas, experiences, and flavors.

Whether you’re struggling with stress, anxiety, friendships, school, identity, or just figuring out “life stuff,” I’m here to help you build skills, find your voice, and feel more confident.
