Erica Ahlstrom is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), practicing in Pennsylvania. She received her Master’s Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Indiana University of Pennsylvania. She has experience in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution Focused Therapy, Eco-Systemic Structural Family Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Trauma-Informed Care, and Narrative Therapy. She believes that the most important part of therapy is creating a safe and open space for her clients to feel seen and heard. Therapy should be a space where someone can explore the patterns that have kept them from achieving their potential. They can then create new patterns to live more fully and presently in life. She is a strong advocate for equal access to quality care for anyone who is in need of mental health services. When she is not in sessions, Erica spends her time with her dog Leroy, reading a new book, crocheting, or looking for her car keys.
