Hi there! Welcome to Empirical Embrace Counseling! My name is Erica and I am founder and lead therapist!

I am also licensed to practice in New Jersey and Delaware! ​ Outside of being a therapist, I enjoy spending time with my friends, family (particularly my niece), and my french bulldog, Beau! I also love to read, travel, binge watch TV shows, and listen to music (shoutout to my fellow Swifties!). I am also an adjunct professor at Immaculata University (in the same program I graduated from) teaching special topic courses like Eating Disorders and OCD. ​ I became a therapist because I understand what it feels like to be in the throes of mental illness while also navigating the ups and downs of life - and how isolating that can be. I want all of my clients to feel safe when they are in the therapy room with me. I want them to know that they have me in their corner to support, guide, and advocate for them.
