Erica has truly been a godsend to me! I have struggled with and managed anxiety throughout my life. When anxiety started to creep back into my life recently, I was so overwhelmed and discouraged! Erica could not have been a better match for me. She’s extremely knowledgeable and professional, but also so fun and real! This helped me to open up to her, but also helped me to laugh at myself...which I needed more than I even knew! Erica helped me remember the tools I learned in previous years of therapy, and also taught me new tools and strategies. Erica Innocent is changing the world...she certainly changed mine!!
