About Erica Wang

Looking for therapy that feels safe, genuine, and accessible? I am a relational, integrative therapist who brings warmth, authenticity, creativity, and whole-person care to every session. The terrain of a fulfilling life asks you to stay open and curious — through heartbreak, burnout, inner conflict, loss and grief, anxiety, depression, illness & disability, and/or the weight of inherited stories (intergenerational trauma). I will walk alongside you as a fellow traveler and creative collaborator, someone who knows firsthand that the richest paths are often the ones least mapped. Healing does not always arrive through words. Alongside traditional talk therapy, we may weave in experiential therapy such as expressive arts, somatics, and/or the natural environment — creating space for your whole self, mind, body, and imagination, to be part of the journey. Together we will find new languages for exploring and understanding yourself. I am passionate about helping you navigate life's unpredictable, uncharted terrain — the challenges, the crossroads, the unexpected turns — unearth deeper layers of your identity, values, and what makes your life feel truly fulfilling. Together, we will explore your life as the living canvas it is — rich with color, texture, and meaning.

As an experiential therapist, I draw from traditional talk therapy, expressive arts, ecotherapy, and somatic practice, bringing curiosity and creativity into our work together. I believe that self-expression, continuous learning, and a willingness to feel your way forward are not just tools for healing, but part of being fully alive. No single modality fits every person, and our work together will be collaborative, relational, and integrative. I work relationally but also integrate concepts of systems and attachment along with ACT, DBT, and parts work. I have diverse professional, educational, and lived experience; and, my clinical education began in art therapy before transitioning to clinical psychology. Aligned with whole person health, I am sensitive to the sociocultural contexts that contribute to biophysiological "medical model" of health. I believe in continuous education and in Liberation Psychologies that remind us of the interconnectedness of capitalism and the Western, medical models as well as acknowledge that many of the contemporary psychotherapy themes and approaches have roots in Asian, Indigenous, and Black cultures.
