Dr. Erica Aten, PsyD

Dr. Erica Aten, PsyD

Psychologist
OR
As a queer psychologist, I specialize in providing affirming, collaborative therapy for LGBTQIA+ individuals navigating anxiety, OCD, trauma, and identity exploration. If you feel stuck in cycles of intrusive thoughts, compulsions, emotional distress, or the lingering weight of past experiences, I’m here to support you in breaking unhelpful patterns and creating space for healing, self-trust, and a life aligned with your values. I believe therapy should be a partnership—one where you feel truly seen, supported, and understood. My approach is active and engaged, helping you build deeper insight into your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors while developing practical strategies for lasting change. I integrate evidence-based interventions with a deep commitment to cultural humility, ensuring that our work together honors your unique identities and lived experiences. Suffering is part of being human—but you don’t have to navigate it alone. Whether you’re exploring your identity, challenging anxious patterns, or seeking relief from past trauma, my goal is to help you feel empowered, connected, and in control of your own story.
