Erika La Frano
Hello, I'm Erika. If you find yourself experiencing burn out, relational stress, or difficulty coping with change, you are not alone. I have over a decade of experience supporting and empowering individuals to gain insight into life challenges and to move towards desired change. I utilize a trauma-informed and evidence-based approach to care. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, grief, PTSD, or difficulty adjusting to life transitions, we will work together to address the person as a whole.
I am trained in a variety of modalities including Problem Solving Treatment (PST), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), CBT, and Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT) among others.
I integrate mindfulness, visualization, movement, and various forms of creative expression to promote healing and well-being. Seeking therapy and finding the right fit can feel like a daunting task. However, together we will find a way forward to support you and address your needs.
First session
The first session will help me to get to know you better as well as to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges that you are facing. This first encounter is important for both of us to get a sense of whether we are a good fit since feeling comfortable with your provider is one of the most important components for a successful treatment outcome.
Strengths
I strive to foster growth and healing through a deeper understanding of your history, relationships, thoughts, feelings, and actions. I believe in human’s innate ability to heal from difficult experiences. My approach to psychotherapy is culturally responsive, collaborative, and evidence based.
Ideal clients
I work with adults who experience and/or have experienced a variety of challenges, ranging from life transitions to traumatic events and losses. My goal is to identify strengths and resources to find a way forward and make the desired changes to improve the quality of life.
