Hi, I’m Eris, a clinical social worker in the Richmond, VA metro area. It sounds like ‘heiress’, but, alas, I am not one. I provide therapy as a way to extend the favor of healing. I received the gift of therapy in college, and decided I would love to study how it all works. I chose social work because of the focus on the whole person, and their strengths rather than deficits. I work from a perspective of solution focused, short term work that help people face their immediate challenges. Working with a new therapist can be anxiety provoking, and I appreciate that, but I thank you for considering working together.
My speciality is working with people motivated to make changes in their lives. I also work within a cognitive-behavioral framework so that I can assist you and stopping negative thought patterns and embracing a new outlook.
Making a change, little or small, takes work but also support. I look forward to being that support for you.
