My mission is to help people transform their personal and relationship challenges into life-enhancing opportunities for growth. I provide a safe and understanding space for healing and resolving problems so my clients can obtain tranquility and positive, lasting changes in their inner lives and relationships.
My Counseling Style
As a counselor dedicated to creating an environment focused on the client, Erika Young offers an empathetic approach that empowers and motivates the client to tell his or her story.
As a client, you are encouraged to help develop solutions to your problems, and Erika will offer you direction, compassion and accountability.
Erika utilizes traditional therapy approaches (CBT, Solution Focused, etc) and connects the use of esoteric practices to promote total body healing. Esoteric practices include discussions surrounding numerology, past life, astrology, chakra alignment. Healing is promoted through the completion of shadow work that involves deep dives into dissecting inner childhood wounds. The goal is to empower the client to evolve into their best self and elevate to new levels in their lives.
Additionally, Erika offers focused, comprehensive work in the following areas:
- Spiritual Awakening

Testimonials
At first I was hesitant about therapy. The unknown of what it would be like or personally just telling and trusting a stranger with my deepest thoughts and feelings was scary. Since taking the big leap I have never been more comfortable in the skin I am in. Erika has been patient with me and allowed me to peel back one layer at a time. I enjoy the self pace sessions that she facilitates which allows me to ramble if I need to or simple just spend time going deep into my past. I ALWAYS learn something from our sessions that I can take with me and for me that’s a win win! I highly recommend!

When I first came to Erika, I felt as if I was spiraling out of control. No balance between work and personal life, controlling in parenting with my husband, etc. Throughout my continued time with Erika, not only have I been able to work through the aforementioned struggles, but I have also worked through the loss of my mom and miscarriage. I have recommended Erika to family and friends. She is amazing at what she does and is heaven sent!”
