General 4 — Erica Christensen Psychotherapy

Hi, I’m Erica! As a therapist, I embrace a holistic, relational, and collaborative approach that invites you to explore the depths of your mind, body, and spirit in the moment, while maintaining a trauma-informed, compassionate, and healing-centered perspective.

Drawing inspiration from mindfulness, I foster collaboration with my clients to untangle negative thought patterns, shift codependent behaviors, and nurture resilience and self-esteem throughout their personal journey. My therapeutic focus centers on trauma-based issues, empowering clients to communicate effectively, manage their emotions, build stress tolerance, and feel better prepared to engage with both the challenging and joyful facets of life.

Some of the reasons that clients have come to see me:

```
anxiety
