Meet Erik

My experiences and interests give me a unique understanding of…

  • Relationship dynamics, especially how patterns like attachment, communication habits, and past experiences shape dating and long-term relationships.

  • The struggle many people face with loneliness, self-confidence, modern dating, and building meaningful connections.

  • Sexual concerns, including performance anxiety, desire differences, and the emotional impact of sexual dysfunction.

  • Exploring questions around religion, spirituality, and personal beliefs—especially when someone is rethinking what they were taught or searching for their own sense of truth.

  • Working through the effects of trauma, including how it shows up in relationships, self-worth, and day-to-day life.

  • The deeper search for meaning and purpose, particularly for people who feel stuck, disconnected, or unsure about the direction of their life.

My clients describe me using words like…

  • Easy to talk to and down-to-earth.

  • Non-judgmental and open-minded.

  • Calm, steady, and supportive.

  • Insightful and good at helping things “click”.

  • Practical and focused on real-life solutions.

  • Compassionate

  • Funny

Booking FAQ

Does Erik offer direct billing with my insurance? Or how does payment work?

First Session charges each session directly to your credit card. Once each session occurs and your card is charged, you’ll receive a PDF receipt by email with all the details you need to get reimbursed (therapist name, designation, license number, address, etc.). You can then submit the receipt to your insurance company for reimbursement if you have coverage. We always recommend checking your coverage with your provider before booking.

How do I know if Erik is a good fit?

You are the expert when it comes to knowing who’s the right fit. Watch the therapist’s video at the top of their profile and see whether the message and energy resonate. If you feel drawn to speak with them, listen to your gut — booking a free consultation is a great first step to assess fit.

What if I see no available times to book a session?

If the therapist is listed as accepting clients and you see no available times, it’s likely they haven’t updated their availability (sorry about that!). In this case, you can to see what times they have available.
