Hi, I’m Erika! I know what it’s like to feel like you need to be perfect.

For years, I navigated the entertainment industry both on and off camera, constantly feeling the pressure to look a certain way, achieve more, and prove my worth. I understand the world of rejection, comparison, and self-doubt. And when past trauma is added to the mix—whether from sexual assault, toxic relationships, or childhood wounds—it can feel overwhelming.

 

But things began to shift when I started prioritizing my mental health. Therapy wasn’t just about talking; it was about understanding and rewiring the patterns that kept me stuck. Through evidence-based approaches like EMDR, CBT, and DBT, I learned how to heal from trauma, move past the cycle of perfectionism, and reconnect with my authentic self.

 

This personal transformation led me to pursue a career where I could support others on their own healing journey. I earned my Bachelor’s degree from California State University, Northridge, and my Master’s in Clinical Psychology with a focus on Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University. Throughout my training, I was drawn to trauma-focused work because I saw firsthand how unprocessed pain can shape every aspect of our lives—our relationships, our careers, our sense of self. But I also saw how powerful healing can be with the right support.

 

Now, I specialize in working with creative women professionals in entertainment who are ready to break free from anxiety, disordered eating, self-doubt, and the weight of past trauma. I offer a safe space to explore, heal, and grow—without judgment, without a one-size-fits-all approach. Together, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan that ACTUALLY works for YOU.

 

I’m truly honored to support women in letting go of the patterns that no longer serve them, helping them embrace their authentic selves and cultivate lasting confidence and emotional well-being. 
 

If this resonates with you,  I’d love to connect and explore how I can best support you.

 

I'm currently a member of (CAMFT & CALPCC).
