Getting to know Erika Silva
Got Grief? Are you feeling stuck with anxious feelings and thoughts?
Life can be challenging to endure, and you're doing your best to manage it all! Thank you for taking this step, especially when it feels like you can barely muster any strength to do so. I'm here to support you.
Welcome to Purposeful Growth! I'm Erika Silva, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from the University of Phoenix. I work virtually with adolescents and young adults experiencing grief, anxiety, or a bit of both! I am committed to fostering an empathetic and non-judgmental environment to guide you toward growth and healing.
In my work, I strive for self-reflection and encourage the exploration of difficult, often avoided emotions. My purpose is to help you examine those emotions and thoughts blocking your recovery. We will work together on how to utilize your strengths, modify distorted thinking, and develop a healthier inner voice. We will also collaborate to improve your self-care and develop a plan for symptom management.
Seeking therapy can be empowering, and you deserve to reach your full potential. I look forward to our meeting and journey together-thank you.
What should a new client know about working with you?
The intake session is a time to get to know you and understand the reason you are seeking therapy. My style is collaborative and authentic. I'm interested in what your expectations and needs are that make your ideal provider. A discussion on your hopes and goals is an important aspect to explore as they will be our guide to your success! With my guidance, some takeaways to expect include identifying and leaning on your strengths, working to identify and realign to your core values, reflecting on past pain with the purpose of growth, and lastly strategies for challenging the inner critic.
More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
