I have worked with a diverse population of youth and families locally in a therapeutic setting for over a decade (including unhoused, LGBTQ+, Tribal, incarcerated and neurodiverse populations). My training is systems-based and I am certified in Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. I also have special interest in somatic techniques, mindfulness, and shame focused treatment methods. I appreciate the opportunity to be present with any individual on their journey of healing and resilience.

Erika Demers (she/her/hers), LMFT

Staff Psychotherapist & Postgraduate Resident Coordinator

Areas of Interest

I specialize in working with those with depression, anxiety, trauma, transitions, relationship problems and those who need some kind of change in their lives. I am humanistic and person-centered in approach with a touch of existential/transpersonal awareness. My extensive training in expressive arts therapy in my graduate program and working with clients creatively ever since, is something I love to incorporate when I can. Also, I have many tools founded in mindfulness, somatic therapy, and cognitive behavioral work. I am certified in Brainspotting, a trauma informed technique, and am commited to racial justice while I continue to do my own anti-racist work. I also have interest in healing through grief, chronic pain, and non-ordinary states of consciousness. I have a growing interest in ecopsychology and many other interests in the field as well as in neuropsychology and systems work.
