About

With a deep belief in the healing and transformative promises of Christ, Erik Mildes has dedicated his career to helping individuals discover growth and healing through Christian counseling. As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Clinical Supervisor, Erik specializes in providing personalized, one-on-one attention to improve mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

Erik's approach is rooted in creating a safe, therapeutic environment where clients can work through difficult issues with support and empathy. He helps individuals understand what it means to be created in God's image and how this affects their thoughts, feelings, and interactions with others. His unique perspective focuses on assisting clients in recognizing their impact on others and how others have impacted them, with the goal of fostering more fulfilling ways of being and relationships that are a blessing to others.

Erik's journey as a Christian counselor began with a profound love for working with people and a natural intuition for relational dynamics. He received his formal training at Mars Hill Graduate School (now The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology), a Christian seminary graduate school specializing in Christian counseling and pastoral studies. This educational background, combined with his faith and clinical training, allows Erik to offer a holistic approach that integrates spiritual growth with psychological understanding.

In his practice, Erik works primarily with individuals and couples seeking Christian counseling or Christian marriage counseling. He has extensive experience helping people recover from issues such as abuse, depression, anxiety, broken relationships, and spiritual concerns. Erik's colleagues note his genuine love and appreciation for others, as well as his energy and accurate insight into his clients' lives.

Erik believes strongly in the power of personal choice and that it's never too late to make changes for a more fulfilling life. He emphasizes the importance of consistency in his own life, striving to "walk the talk" both in and out of the office. This commitment to authenticity is crucial to his effectiveness as a counselor, husband, father, and follower of Christ. When not in the office, Erik enjoys spending time with his family and friends, engaging in both leisure activities and grand adventures. He also finds fulfillment in prayer, good conversation, mountain biking, snowboarding, and reading.
