Getting to know Erica Besen

In a world of noise, you may feel as though you've lost your way—or perhaps, you don’t truly feel at home. You long for quiet space, deep rest, and authentic connection and belonging. My work is a gentle invitation to the weary soul. I offer a space for you to come home to yourself, guided by my own deep-seated belief in the power of peace. Outside of my practice, I find my own peace in the quiet moments of my day—baking a loaf of bread, walking on the beach, or simply listening to the gentle sound of the ocean. This journey of therapy is a collaboration, a deep listening to the needs of your soul. By gently guiding you toward your own inner stillness, we create a powerful ripple effect, a peace that extends from you out into your life and the world. Together, we can conspire to cultivate a peaceful planet, one breath and one session at a time. Here is one of my favorite poems: Wild Geese by Mary Oliver You do not have to be good. You do not have to walk on your knees for a hundred miles through the desert repenting. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves. Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine. Meanwhile the world goes on. Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain are moving across the landscapes, over the prairies and the deep trees, the mountains and the rivers. Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air, are heading home again. Whoever you are, no matter how lonely, the world offers itself to your imagination, calls to you like the wild geese, harsh and exciting— over and over announcing your place in the family of things.
