Balanced Mental Wellness.

Erica offers combined medication management and evidence-based treatments for anxiety and depression.

NYC Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner for Depression Care
  • Life isn't meant to be spent struggling to get out of bed, feeling overwhelmed by everyday tasks, or weighed down by anxiety and depression.

    Medication can be helpful, particularly when clients have not found relief from their symptoms through therapy or lifestyle changes. If you’re unsure if medication is right for you, Erica will empower you with the knowledge you need to make an informed decision and support you along the way.

    Erica helps clients find the right medication, manage their dose, and track their progress.

  • Pharmacogenetic testing is a type of genetic testing that analyzes how a person’s genes affect their response to medications. Gene testing can be helpful in selecting the most effective medication and optimal dosages with fewer side effects. It's especially useful in managing conditions like anxiety, depression, and ADHD, where medication responses can vary widely among individuals taking anti-depressants/SSRIs, stimulants, sleep medications, etc.

  • Erica’s approach to therapy is humanistic in nature and highly individualized, focusing on each client’s unique needs. She often includes elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and motivational interviewing to help create healthier habits, reduce stress, and break unhelpful patterns, such as rumination, negative self-talk, and compulsive worry.

  • Erica will support you in making positive lifestyle changes that will enhance your wellbeing, such as:

    • Incorporating mindfulness

    • Practicing relaxation techniques

    • Improving sleep

    • Supporting healthy eating and exercise patterns

For those feeling apprehensive about medication, Erica offers a no-pressure environment. You can schedule a consultation or psychiatric evaluation to discuss any concerns, including a lack of progress in therapy. This conversation helps explore whether medication might be a helpful option for you, while leaving the door open to all possibilities. Erica’s approach is always about understanding your unique needs and meeting you where you are, so you can feel confident in your treatment choices.
