Sand Dollar Counseling
My name is Erin Peterson and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker in Massachusetts and owner of Sand Dollar Counseling. I specialize in:
-Providing evidence-based, effective, and compassionate therapy to individuals navigating depression, anxiety, trauma, gender identity, stress and life transitions.
-Supporting people in managing emotions more effectively or in understanding themselves and their identity more fully.
-Helping people make changes in thought patterns and behaviors.
-Offering a supportive environment for individuals to discover their identity.
-Focusing on work with adolescents and young adults in their 20’s and 30’s.
-Perinatal Mental Health
I believe that in order for therapy to be effective, there has to be a match between therapist and client, plus a readiness to change on the client’s part. I work to develop a warm and supportive environment for all individuals meeting with me. I work from a gender affirming space. I know the decision to start therapy can be a big step. I look forward to meeting with you soon.
