Meet the Owner!
Hi! I’m Erica Glidden, owner and founder of North Star Psychological Services. I am glad you’re here. I always had a vision of creating a business one day that would help people navigate the challenges in their lives. North Star was born out of the days of COVID-19- when so many people were turning to therapy to help get through those dark, challenging, and unpredictable years. I was working as a contractural therapist at another group practice, and I felt it was time to take the leap into my own practice. North Star opened its doors in 2020 as a solo practice and, as we continued to grow, we transformed into a group practice with several different clinicians. Our growth persists, and I couldn’t be more proud of our team.
I find therapy to be such a powerful tool to help people rediscover their strengths and foster growth and change. My approach is very strength-based and solution focused, helping clients to find solutions to here-and-now challenges while cultivating lasting changes and habits. I also believe that getting back to basics is a fundamental part of therapy- helping people to cultivate movement, eat well, nurture relationships, and check the boxes for the basic human needs before moving on with deeper goals.
When I’m not seeing clients, you can find me traveling, taking long walks, singing, checking out the newest local restaurants, and spending time with my family.
Until we meet again….
Cheers!
Erica
