“I take a very active approach to therapy.
Some therapists sit quietly and serve as more of a sounding board for their clients, but I am a very active listener, constantly asking clarifying questions, pointing out themes and patterns, and pushing my clients to see and be the very best versions of themselves.”

Erica Friedman
