Getting to know Erik Skow

My name is Erik Skow, and I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 6 years of clinical experience. I hold a Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Florida. I am passionate about helping clients find peace in their lives by working through symptoms related to anxiety, depression, traumatic experiences, impulsivity, life changes, and interpersonal conflicts. My approach My approach to therapy varies based on each individual’s needs. I typically use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness, and Interpersonal Psychotherapy. These modalities help clients work through past trauma, anxiety, depressive symptoms, cognitive barriers, and challenges to change maladaptive behaviors or habits. My focus My clinical experience includes working with children of all ages to navigate life transitions, trauma, and social pressures. I also work with adults who have a history of substance use concerns, anxiety, depression, and difficulties developing and maintaining relationships. I help my clients process their emotions, life triggers, and relationships to foster greater self-esteem and confidence. My communication style I take a person-centered approach to communication. I want my clients to feel safe and comfortable talking with me about anything without feeling judged. My journey to therapy After leaving the military, I took an aptitude test with Veterans Affairs that revealed my passion for helping others. This led me to become a teacher and pursue a degree in mental health counseling. As both a teacher and therapist, I have always been motivated to help others find peace and confidence in their lives. My goals for you I use a person-centered and motivational interviewing approach to understand what brings you to therapy. Together, we will establish attainable goals that have a meaningful impact on your life.
