About Me

Hello! I’m so glad you made it to my website. I’m Erica, and I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the states of California and Massachusetts. I have been practicing psychotherapy for over 10 years, and I’m also an AASECT certified sex therapist. I got my BA in Psychology and Sociology at the University of Pittsburgh and then my MSW at Boston College.

I came to social work fascinated by the deeper levels of human psychology. Doing talk therapy is how I feel the most invested and excited in my work. Over the years I’ve been profoundly impacted by the vulnerability of my clients, who have also given me the courage to live my life more authentically.

I started out working as a therapist seeing clients with diverse mental concerns at a primary care clinic in Boston, Massachusetts. There I discovered the need for mental health and medical professionals to learn more about sexual health and its importance in human wellness. I was inspired to get my AASECT sex therapy certification from South Shore Sexual Health, where I honed my therapy approach and learned how to treat individuals and couples with sexual concerns. At the same time I started my private practice and began to see clients on my own.

In my time outside of work I volunteer for a political advocacy organization called Tight Lipped that works to improve health care for people with pelvic pain. I’m particularly passionate about educating other providers about the importance of sexual wellness.

In 2020, I met my now husband who with his handsome face and loving nature eventually enticed me to move to Los Angeles, California to get his PhD.

I like to have fun by spending time in the California sunshine with my husband camping, hiking, kayaking and disc-golfing. I relax by eating at LA’s many delicious restaurants, watching TV and petting our sweet cat Howie.
