Erik Kohl

Erik Kohl Counselor, MA, LMHC is located at our Grinnell office.

I am currently taking new clients in Grinnell office located on the college campus. Next day appointments are often available and I can accommodate evening and Saturday appointments. I utilize a client-centered approach to therapy and prefer to focus on strengths and solutions rather than dwelling on problems. I focus on the therapeutic relationship as the means of implementing change. As a clinician I take environmental, relational, and emotional factors in to account during treatment. My goal is to help you move forward with your life and equip you to manage your mental health on your own.
I work with children, adolescents and adults. I operate from a Trauma informed care model with experience treating PTSD, depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectic Behavioral, EMDR, and solution based therapy interventions to empower you to maintain your mental health.

I believe in the importance of holistic health care so I am willing to collaborate with professionals from other fields. I have experience working with school counselors, primary care providers, and professionals from other mental health organizations to help provide resources you may need during treatment.
