Getting to know Erika Trowell

As a first-generation citizen, Erika understands the cultural barriers her community faces when dealing with mental health. Her passion for helping people led her on the journey to becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor. It is important to Erika to help break down these barriers by supporting people facing life's challenges. Working toward wellness can be tough, especially when there is a stigma that only some people need therapy. Erika wants to combat this myth. Anyone struggling should feel they deserve the help they need. With a bachelor's degree in psychology and a Master of Education in Counseling from Virginia State University, Erika has the right education. She has experience working with adolescents, adults, and families on a range of issues, including family conflict, depression, self-harm, and anxiety. Erika uses various techniques, including dialectical behavior therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, and exposure therapy. She understands that no single technique suits everyone's recovery. With a background using exposure therapy when working with adolescents, she has helped them manage school avoidance and anxiety. Erika believes we are not meant to do this thing called life alone. She provides her clients with a safe, nurturing, nonjudgmental, and supportive therapeutic space to help them navigate life's ups and downs. Erika is empathetic, genuine, compassionate, and builds authentic relationships with those who choose her as their therapist. With a passion for wellness and helping others, Erika also loves being a wife and mother. Erika believes that anyone who seeks therapy has the power to embrace the difficult process of wellness and create a better life. She says, ?Thank you for being willing to take this step toward wellness. As you move forward in your process of selecting your new therapist, I hope you begin to feel even more empowered about your journey ahead. Know that you can become well.?
