About

My name is Erich Priest (he/him). I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in North Carolina with over 6 years of professional work experience in assessing, diagnosing, and treating mental health disorders. I have experience in helping clients with issues of stress and anxiety, LGBTQ+ issues, trauma and abuse, & depression. I believe that people wake up trying to do their best, and should be treated with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I have high hopes and expectations for my clients, and work diligently to help them get to where they want to go - even if that takes some time to figure out. I will tailor our dialog and treatment to meet your unique and specific needs, so that you can make progress towards your goals.

Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process with impactful 45-min video sessions. I look forward to working with you!

My general schedule is Tuesdays-Saturdays from 11am-3pm, with some exceptions (Saturday slots are by request only). I will do my best to message you back as soon as possible during those business hours. If I receive your message outside of my general business hours I will contact you the following business day. (If you contract or message me after 3pm on Friday it may be late Tuesday morning before I am able to respond). Thank you!
