Meet Erica Zisman

LCSW & Virtual Therapist

Hi, I’m Erica. I am a licensed clinical social worker from New York, and my passion for therapy stems from a deep-seated belief in the transformative power of support along life's intricate path.

For me, therapy is not just a profession, it's a profound commitment to empower individuals every step of the way as they navigate life's twists and turns. I place immense value on the bonds of connection, recognizing that genuine understanding and empathy form the cornerstone of healing.

Whether I'm working with a child, a teenager, or a young adult, my approach is rooted in attentive care and skillful adaptation to meet each client's unique needs. I firmly believe that things like change, perfectionism, and anxiety are best faced with support. 

My therapeutic style is eclectic and adaptive, allowing me to craft sessions that seamlessly align with the individuality of my clients' journeys. My ultimate goal is to create a space where you, your child, and your family feel not just heard, but truly seen and understood.

Drawing from my background in clinical social work, I've had the privilege of serving as a dedicated children's therapist in clinical settings and as a compassionate school social worker. Additionally, I've had the honor of leading workshops and seminars focused on navigating the realms of anxiety and young adulthood.

In our time together, I aim to foster an environment where you feel not just comfortable, but validated—where your experiences are honored, your challenges are met with empathy, and your journey is supported with the space to go at your own pace.
