Hi! I have been in the therapy field for over 18 years, working with individuals and families in both outpatient, group, and residential settings. After a few unsatisfying careers and emotional stagnation in relationships, I recognized I needed to do some significant work on myself. I pursued therapy for myself which led me to appreciate the capacity and curiosity to want to help others.

Kyle Galer

Kyle Galer

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker dedicated to helping clients navigate life’s challenges to reach their goals. I view the therapeutic process as a unique journey we take together - exploring your strengths, addressing obstacles, and uncovering new possibilities.

No two paths are the same, and I am committed to walking alongside you to chart a course that supports your personal growth.

I believe that therapy is a collaborative journey, not a one-size-fits-all process. Each person’s story is unique, and I work with clients to chart a path that fits their needs, values, and dreams.

Whether helping young clients build coping skills or working with families to strengthen support systems, my focus is on creating a safe, collaborative environment where growth can happen.

Therapist

Virtual • Pennsylvania


Hello my name is Tam and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a passion for helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and move toward healing, stability, and personal growth. I believe that everyone deserves to be heard, understood, and supported without judgment.

My clinical approach is client-centered, trauma-informed, and grounded in evidence-based practices. I work collaboratively with clients to identify their strengths, explore patterns that may be holding them back, and develop practical tools for coping and change. I strive to create a safe, respectful space where clients feel comfortable being open and authentic.

I have experience working with individuals facing anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, and complex social stressors. My background in social work allows me to view each person holistically, considering emotional, psychological, social, and environmental factors that impact well-being.

Above all, I believe in meeting clients where they are and walking alongside them at their own pace. My goal is to empower clients to build insight, resilience, and confidence as they work toward a healthier and more fulfilling life.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Erie

Finding the right therapist in Erie, PA starts with getting clear on the type of support you need. Whether you're looking for help with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship concerns, or something else, choosing a licensed provider who specializes in your area of concern can make a meaningful difference. Erie County has providers trained in a range of approaches — from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and EMDR to couples counseling and family therapy — so consider what matters most to you, whether that's a specific specialty, virtual or in-person sessions, or a provider located near your neighborhood in Millcreek, Harborcreek, or downtown Erie.

Therapy in Erie can be expensive without coverage, but affordable options are available when you use your in-network insurance benefits. On Headway, you can enter your insurance details to see estimated session costs before you book, and many patients pay as low as $0 per visit. Nationally, Headway partners with over 100 insurance plans, making it easier to find a therapist who fits both your clinical needs and your budget.

Once you've identified a few providers, reading their bios can help you understand their style and approach before committing. Many therapists on Headway also offer a free phone consultation, so you can see if the fit feels right — with no charge unless you decide to continue care.

1 Cost may vary based on your location, age, and insurance coverage.
