About Erica Griffin

M.A Clinical Psychology, PhD Social Psychology

I'm a registered psychologist with over a decade of clinical experience, working with adults navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, and the particular complexities of life as a neurodivergent person.

My clinical training is grounded in evidence-based approaches including EMDR, CPT, and ACT. Alongside my clinical psychology training, I hold a doctorate in social psychology — which means I bring to each session not only an understanding of individual experience, but of the broader social and relational contexts that shape it. How we were treated, what we were told about ourselves, and the environments we've moved through are never separate from who we are now.

I work collaboratively and at your pace. I take referrals seriously, I explain my clinical reasoning, and I don't believe in leaving people with an explanation and no map for what to do with it. Whatever brings you through the door — trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, or simply the feeling that something isn't quite right — my goal is to help you understand yourself more clearly and build a life that works with you rather than against you. My approach is neurodiversity-affirming: not trying to help you become more neurotypical, but to help you make sense of how you're wired — and move through the world with greater confidence, self-knowledge, and trust in yourself.

Seeking support takes courage. I don't take that lightly.

Outside the office, I'm an adventure-seeking parent, a devoted tea drinker, and an incurable book dragon. I also write a weekly essay publication exploring the psychology of everyday life — if you're curious, you can find it at A Matter of Perspective on Substack.
