Ericka Echavarria, JD, LMSW, LSW, CSW

My approach as a therapist focuses on providing a space that centers your dignity and care. As a professor and administrator in a university, I recognize and understand the competing needs and interests of students. Sometimes managing studies, and other responsibilities, including work, family, relationships, can be overwhelming, and it can be difficult to prioritize what is important. This might manifest as burnout, lack of focus, feelings of anxiety or sadness, as well as chronic or recurring illness, fatigue, impulsive behavior, or isolation. Often it is helpful to have a safe space to unload and release what is on our minds, and share what we are holding. I understand starting this therapeutic process requires courage and vulnerability, and I am dedicated to building a collaborative partnership that honors your experiences and needs, offers a space where you are seen and heard, and feels empowering. My therapeutic approach is care centered, and incorporates a social justice and trauma informed lens, to meet your unique needs and identities. When helpful, I also used mindfulness and somatic approaches to support reflection, regulation, and resilience.
