About

Getting help is no small ordeal and Erik is here to assist you along your path to healing.

Erik obtained his Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy through Capella University and his Bachelor of Science in Marriage and Family Studies from Brigham Young University – Idaho. He is a firm believer that family intergenerational patterns and experiences from childhood are what mold us into who we are today. In a world of conflict and confusion, solutions are all around us. Finding a healthy source and structure to life can bring well-needed healing. Erik approaches counseling using interventions from models of therapy like Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Structural Family Therapy (SFT), Bowen Family Systems (BFS), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Written Exposure Therapy (WET), Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and so forth. He works with individuals, teens, young adults, couples, and families struggling with anxiety, depression, adjustment, intrusive thoughts, compulsivity, marital conflict, infidelity, trauma, life skills, launching into the world, and grief and loss. Erik also works with blended and multicultural families.

Erik was born and raised in Northern San Diego County, California. He and his family have been in Cedar City since 2021. His hobbies consist of learning languages, shooting at the county range, going outdoors, PC gaming, and more. Just like you, he understands the challenges life can bring and the difficulties working through them. Erik can work with you to find empowerment, peace, and hope, to overcome whatever has been burdening you and/or your family for so long.
