Message to clients

One of my favorite parts about doing therapy is helping people find their own strengths so that you can better understand what you need in order to thrive. I compassionately support you to approach yourself with more self-compassion. The relationship between you and your therapist is very important. A good relationship allows you to feel comfortable, safe and understood. This makes it much easier to express your thoughts and feelings. As a therapist, Dr. Steinwand's role is to listen, support, and guide you with encouragement so that you may heal with the inner strength and compassion that is within.

I cannot recommend Erika Steinwand highly enough. She is an exceptional psychologist who truly embodies client-centered and compassionate care. Her deep knowledge and expertise in her field are evident in every session, and she has a remarkable ability to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for her clients. Her compassionate approach, combined with her insightful guidance, makes a meaningful and lasting impact on the lives of those who seek her support. She is a true asset to the community, and her dedication to mental health and healing is truly inspiring.

Byron Rivera, PsyD

I have known Dr. Steinwand for the past 13 years and she is one of the most caring, dedicated, and driven mental health providers I know. She strives for excellence in all areas of patient care. As a fellow mental health provider, I do not say this lightly—I would trust her with my family's mental health."
