Great to meet you!

My name is Leah Erickson. I am a mother of 3 amazing children who keep me very busy. As a former high school counselor I have honed my skills at working with adolescents and truly enjoy watching them grow into their own. I further enjoy working with adults as they experience the challenges that life brings daily. My belief is that every person has the skills to tackle those challenges and achieve their goals. Through a positive unbiased partnership, we can bring those skills to light and learn to use them to reach the desired outcome.

My approach to therapy

I am solution focused, but enjoy working from a holistic view point to help each client meet their counseling goals. I believe counseling is a partnership and requires work from both the client and the counselor.

What you can expect from me

Incorporating weekly or biweekly goals are part of my normal practice, those goals will be designed to help you achieve your counseling goals. I enjoy a conversational style environment that enables the client to feel both confident and comfortable in sharing the whats and whys behind seeking to make personal changes.
