Getting to know Erica Carrington

Hello and Welcome! My name is Erica Carrington. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Pepperdine University and a Bachelor’s degree from Fairmont State University. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, self-confidence, trauma, stress management, grief/loss, self-acceptance, and transitions (college, changing jobs, new parents, etc.). My approach My philosophy of psychotherapy is, “Tomorrow Will Be Better.” I believe you are the expert on you, and I am here to help you navigate getting back to the best version of yourself. We work collaboratively to achieve your goals. I meet you where you are and work at the pace that’s best for you. I utilize a range of contemporary psychological theories such as psychodynamic, solution-focused, cognitive behavioral therapy, and narrative. My focus I enjoy working with adolescents, young adults, adults, the LGBTQ community, and older adults. I primarily work with clients virtually or on the phone. My areas of focus include anxiety, depression, self-confidence, trauma, stress management, relationship issues, women’s concerns, and transitions (college, changing jobs, new parents, etc.). My communication style I strive to create a warm, accepting, safe, and nonjudgmental space. I meet you where you are while gathering information about what brings you to therapy. I am present and attentive. When applicable, I give homework and utilize humor. My journey to mental healthcare I have always enjoyed meeting people and helping them get to the next place in their lives. My family used to say I had the “gift of talking to anyone and getting them to open up.” It warms my heart when a person reaches their goal and says: “Thank you for seeing me,” “I feel so much better about myself,” “I feel better about advocating for myself,” “Yes, you get me/it,” or “My/our relationship has gotten better.
