Erin Powers
Counselor/Therapist, APCC 9590
I believe that we all have the capacity to heal. I take a trauma-informed, body-based, and spiritually grounded approach to working with clients. I have experience working with clients (primarily women) from a variety of backgrounds, including those experiencing anxiety and co-occurring health issues impacting mental health. I enjoy incorporating mindfulness, expressive arts, and other holistic modalities into my sessions and will provide you with resources to utilize in your everyday life. As Carl Jung states, "I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become".

My background across clinical, behavioral, and experiential settings has shaped a flexible, intuitive approach that honors your unique story and pace. If you’re looking for a therapist who will walk alongside you with warmth, honesty, and intention, I’d be honored to support you in taking that next step.
