Erica Smith, Licensed Mental Health Counselor
Hello! I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a neurodiversity-affirming therapist who personally understands the challenges anxiety can create. I’m here to help you find calm, deepen self-understanding, and move toward meaningful healing.
“The Good life is a process, not a state of being...it is a direction, not a destination...”
Specialty Areas
Imposter syndrome, people pleasing or just plain old anxiety, I understand. I can help with a variety of anxiety concerns including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic, phobias. You will learn ways to ease anxiety symptoms so you can live the life you want.
I know what it’s like to lose a loved one and can help you pick up the pieces. You will begin your healing journey while honoring your loved one.
As someone who understands what it’s like to feel out of step with how the world expects you to think and function, I bring that perspective to neurodiversity-affirming therapy. I help people meet themselves with more acceptance than the world has often offered them.
