About Us

Your Mental Health Team

Loving Our Community (L.O.C.) Counseling Services was founded by Erica Anderson, LCSW, with a mission to educate and empower our community on the importance of mental health. Through dedicated community initiatives, L.O.C. Counseling Services strives to foster a gradual and positive impact on the mental well-being of adolescents and young adults.

Our Story

We have built—and will continue to grow—a highly skilled and experienced team of clinicians and support staff dedicated to providing the highest quality mental health services. At L.O.C. Counseling Services, we believe that by strengthening the mental well-being of our youth and young adults, we can create a healthier, more resilient community.

For far too long, mental health struggles have been overshadowed by unnecessary stigma, preventing individuals from seeking the help they deserve. Our mission is to break these barriers and foster a culture where mental health is openly discussed, understood, and supported.

Our counseling services address a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, anger management, life transitions, substance use, bullying, the negative effects of social media, and challenges in school. By utilizing various evidence-based treatment modalities, we provide personalized therapy tailored to each client’s unique needs.

Beyond traditional counseling, we are committed to community engagement. Throughout the year, we host free events and educational opportunities to promote mental health awareness and equip individuals with the tools to navigate life’s challenges. At L.O.C. Counseling Services, we take pride in preparing the next generation for a brighter, healthier future.

Our Team.

Our therapists bring compassion, professionalism, and a genuine dedication to helping individuals and families navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, relationship challenges, and other concerns. We understand that seeking support can feel difficult, so we meet each client with empathy and without judgment.

We believe meaningful change begins with a trusting therapeutic relationship. Together, we help our clients develop practical tools, recognize their strengths, and move toward healthier, more fulfilling lives.
