That relationship is key in helping grow, trust and meet any goals that you might have going into the therapeutic process. Let me give you a glimpse of who I am!

I started my career in the community health sector which I learned so much and worked with diverse groups of people with an array of various needs. I have worked in school settings as well as in homes. I have been deep within the community in many of my roles along the way. I have developed many techniques along the way as not one intervention will work for everyone. Some of the modalities I use are EMDR, CBT, Motivational interviewing, solution-focused techniques as well as a combination of these. I meet people where they are, maybe having to learn how they are even feeling let alone how to cope with that feeling. Maybe we have a tool, but if no one ever took the time to teach us, then what good is that tool?

From there, I earned a Master’s Degree in Social Work, building a strong foundation to guide, support, and empower those I work with. My practice is grounded in a client-centered, collaborative, and trauma-informed philosophy. I view therapy as a partnership, with your voice and perspective at the center.

Hi, I'm so glad you're here! I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a Master of Social Work degree from Valdosta State University. I was born and raised in Nebraska but have made Georgia my home, and I truly love it here. I became a therapist because I genuinely care about people and believe that everyone deserves access to compassionate, meaningful support. I know that reaching out for help is not always easy, and I want you to know that taking that step says a lot about your strength and your commitment to yourself. My goal is to make sure that from the moment you connect with me, you feel welcome, heard, and comfortable. I am an animal lover through and through, and that love has found a natural home in my clinical practice. I incorporate pet therapy into my work with clients, and I have seen firsthand the incredible impact that a furry friend can have on even the most difficult days. Whether it helps break the ice, ease anxiety, or simply bring a moment of joy into a hard season, it is one of my favorite tools to offer. Outside of my passion for animals, I am deeply committed to doing work that matters. I show up for my clients with honesty, warmth, and a whole lot of heart. I believe in meeting people where they are, walking alongside them through the hard stuff, and celebrating the wins along the way — big and small. If you are looking for a therapist who will be real with you, root for you, and work hard alongside you, I would love to connect. I can't wait to meet you.

Hi, I’m Erika Gardner, a Licensed Professional Counselor with 14 years of experience helping adults reconnect with themselves and find steadiness during difficult seasons of life. If you’ve been navigating anxiety, stress, low mood, or the sense that life has simply become too heavy to manage alone, you’re in the right place. I support women and adults who are working through overwhelming emotions, healing from past experiences, or trying to regain their footing after major life changes. My therapeutic style is warm, collaborative, and paced according to your comfort. I blend supportive talk therapy with practical coping tools and goal-focused strategies so sessions feel both grounding and genuinely useful. My hope is that you leave each session feeling clearer, steadier, and equipped with something meaningful you can apply in daily life. I believe healing is not one size fits all. Your story, your pace, and your needs guide our work together. My role is to honor what you’ve been carrying while helping you build skills that support confidence, resilience, and ease moving forward. Outside of my clinical work, I enjoy spending time with my family and reading across diverse genres. I would be honored to support you—reach out whenever you’re ready to take that first step.
