Great to meet you!

My name is Erika Tovar I pride myself in being an understanding and caring provider who strives to help others who are going through difficult times. I work with adults who are in all phases of life struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and self-esteem issues. One of my specialties includes working with women issues, moms who often experience distress while managing all that comes with raising children, pregnancy/prenatal and postpartum depression.

My approach to therapy

My main priority is to create a safe, non-judgmental space to help explore, process, discover underlying needs and emotions that contribute to feeling stuck and overwhelmed. Ultimately, our work together in therapy will be to create an individual plan with goals to help you in managing these emotions and regaining control of your life.

What you can expect from me

My approach is to work with you collaboratively to achieve the goals you desire and also work on recognizing underlying needs and patterns in behaviors that leave you feeling stuck. Please reach out to me with any questions you may have. I look forward to being the copilot on your healing journey.
