I’m Erica Haines, a licensed clinical psychologist. I offer individual and group therapy in Santa Barbara, CA and on telehealth. I’ve been providing therapy for over 12 years to a variety of clients - from children struggling with school, to college students struggling with finding themselves, to prison inmates struggling with meaning, to middle-aged individuals feeling stuck and overwhelmed, and lots more in between. https://www.drericahaines.com/about-erica daily 0.75 2026-02-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/793f1300-4290-4c59-b6a7-c1ec3357f152/IMG_4729.jpg About Erica - Hi there! Thank you for your interest in pursuing therapy with me. Choosing a therapist can be a daunting task. I hope that by learning a little about me you can make an informed decision about my fit as your therapist. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/1756936912072-MK8TV5444SSZ3CFR5PJU/unsplash-image-EwKXn5CapA4.jpg About Erica - You deserve to feel heard and understood. My method is to develop a genuine connection with my patients so they feel validated and appreciated for who they are. That connection is powerful enough to provide a feeling of safety. When someone feels safe and cared for, they are able to explore themselves and their lives in a deep and meaningful way. Our therapeutic relationship builds the foundation for us to pursue your goals, promote healing, and effect worthwhile change. As a therapist, I see myself as a guide, a support, a helper. I trust that you are in fact the expert on you, and sometimes we need another’s safe and caring presence to really explore deeper levels of ourselves. I can offer a different perspective so that we can uncover what needs to be seen, discover untapped potential, or strengthen what has been there all along. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/1588371848228-OSGUH414KT6OJYVB980C/image-asset.jpeg About Erica - The ocean is a beautiful metaphor for human experience. Viewing the ocean from above it can appear calm, tranquil, controlled. Underneath is a vast expanse of different entities and processes, sometimes working in harmony and sometimes in conflict. The ocean can do amazingly inspiring things. It can also do harm. The ocean can be greatly affected by outside forces and internal vulnerabilities. Ultimately, the ocean does its best to take care of itself, and sometimes it can use the help of another to thrive. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/1593444998921-5NTHHUTQ9T1MJ0T1QDQW/image-asset.jpeg About Erica https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/1593444712714-9AG0CX8G4Z0ZC2NDTNSH/image-asset.jpeg About Erica https://www.drericahaines.com/services daily 0.75 2026-01-20 https://www.drericahaines.com/contact daily 0.75 2026-02-11 https://www.drericahaines.com/other-contact daily 0.75 2024-07-26 https://www.drericahaines.com/group-therapy-current daily 0.75 2026-01-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/1686601222197-PH6Y5EH8UE642QK00TEQ/image-asset.jpeg https://www.drericahaines.com/about-bella daily 0.75 2026-01-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/6cbe5d54-5117-4bcf-80d9-e2fa19fc63ca/headshot.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/b7c20e8d-3825-4958-97b3-747bcda511aa/IMG_0628+2.jpg https://www.drericahaines.com/group-interest daily 0.75 2025-05-24 https://www.drericahaines.com/about-brad daily 0.75 2026-01-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5e568a08e7d85e7c4f88ebf6/ce7a17ef-425d-4626-baa0-d908cf8fd62a/4022C36F-E314-46A1-984C-2FED3EF0A587.png
