Client
“I have been seeing Erica as my therapist since 2021. I was suffering from anxiety, depression, and feelings of negativity. This was not me, so I knew I needed help.
Client
“Erica has made me feel seen, heard, and understood. She accepts me wherever I am in our therapy sessions and never makes me feel like my feelings, moods, or experiences are invalid. My anxiety, panic attacks, and depression are well under control now, thanks to the work that I’ve been able to do with Erica. She has changed my life!“
Client
“Erica is a very genuine therapist to work with. Nothing she says feels performative or like she’s lying in any way to make me feel better. It feels like my problems are really being heard instead of getting cookie-cutter responses that every patient gets. I can trust Erica as a therapist and as a person, which I value when working with someone.”
Client
“I heartily encourage individuals and other professionals to avail yourself of this amazing therapist.
I am an old public defender currently serving clients in a therapeutic courts in Washington state. My career had included working with many amazing therapists and clinicians and I was privileged to work with Erica Nicolaus more than 2 decades ago, as she was just beginning her career.
I have followed her practice and continuing education and accomplishments with admiration and deep appreciation for her skills and commitment.
It makes me sad, for me and my community, that her practice does currently encompass Washington state.
I endorse Erica and her practice, unequivocally and without reservation.”
