I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 12 years of experience supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, trauma, anger, life transitions, substance use concerns, neurodivergence, and LGBTQ+ issues. I work with adults from diverse backgrounds and bring a creative, inclusive lens to therapy that honors each client’s unique experiences and strengths.

I earned my master’s degree in social work from New Mexico State University. My approach is person-centered, solution-focused, strength-based, and trauma-informed.

My goal is to create a space where you feel heard, affirmed, and safe as you move through growth and healing. Together, we will build on your strengths, develop practical tools, and identify meaningful steps forward. I invite you to take the next step and schedule an appointment so we can begin this work together.

I earned my master's degree in counseling from Nova Southeastern University, where I gained a strong foundation in evidence-based practices.

Together, we will build a plan that supports your growth, confidence, and emotional well-being. You deserve support that honors your story, and I look forward to helping you take the next step toward healing.

Erin Schovanec is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), dance/movement therapist, and certified Yoga Therapist who has 16 years of experience as an expressive and creative mental health professional. Erin’s clinical experience has ranged in various treatment settings including outpatient therapy, Treatment Foster Care, and residential treatment. She has served children, adolescents, and adults experiencing symptoms related to attachment, anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance abuse. 

Erin completed her Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Dance Education magna cum laude at the University of Central Oklahoma and her Master of Arts (MA) in Dance/Movement Therapy and Counseling Psychology at Antioch New England Graduate School. Erin’s personal hobbies include dancing, teaching group exercise, and running.

Erin's clinical approach is solution-focused, person-centered, with the utilization of positive psychology and cognitive behavioral techniques. In addition, as a movement therapist, Erin’s therapeutic approach stems from a mind-body perspective, in that there is an inner relationship between the physical body and our thoughts and emotions. In order to heal, one has to “move through” challenging barriers with open awareness and self-compassion to develop a deeper understanding of one’s self. This healing process contributes to more meaningful relationships and greater connection to self and others.
