  • “Dr. Erika helped me through a very difficult period of time with my daughter. She sat with me, listened to me, and gave me the best advice. She helped me understand what was happening in a way I had never been able to before and gave me strategies to help us both. Dr. Erika changed the way I thought about my daughter's behavior and our relationship. Now, a few months later, my relationship with my daughter is the best it has ever been! I cannot thank Dr. Erika enough for what she has done for me and my family. She is the best!”

    OLIVIA, MOM OF 2

  • “As a pediatric clinical psychologist and founder of a child and family therapy practice, I wholly endorse the family-centered supportive and educational services offered by Dr. Erika Bocknek and her associates at Convo. Dr. Bocknek is a leader across the fields of family therapy, child socioemotional development, parenting, and family wellbeing.”

    DR. PATRICIA RICHARDSON

  • “Dr. Bocknek has reframed situations with my middle schooler numerous times. Sometimes, that alternative perspective can make all the difference in how, we as parents, approach an issue.”

    SHERRI, MOM

  • “My family and I have worked with Dr. Erika for 17 years ranging from pre-marital counseling to raising neurodiverse children to coping with a major medical crisis to facing childhood trauma and more. Conversations with Dr. Erika (whether they be about her sharing expertise, asking us hard questions, playing with blue sand or making us laugh) leave each of us in our family feeling more human, more informed, and more at peace.”

    CATHERINE, MOM

  • Convo is a modern approach to mental health support, intervention, and treatment. We have been studying, teaching about, and providing psychotherapy for years, and we know that people need more flexibility and greater accessibility from their healthcare providers. Sometimes you need ongoing, weekly therapy. Many times, you need targeted advice or help formulating a plan. We offer telehealth as well in-person sessions, and you choose your schedule.

  • We have made a decision to stop taking insurance and only accept direct payment by clients. This was not an easy decision, and we are aware this may create a burden on many of our clients. The clearest and most succinct explanation we can offer for this decision is that we strongly believe this is the best way for us to provide the highest quality services to the most people. We would like to share this piece written by another therapist (*we are not affiliated with her or her practice) that delineates the issues we face in having to make this decision. We provide you all the documentation you need to submit for reimbursement to your own insurance company.

  • We have after-school and evening appointments available. However, the child-focused ConvoTx Clinics may only be scheduled in the morning or early afternoon. Simply: your child is not able to engage as is needed for short-term, intensive clinics after a long day at school. We have carefully designed these clinics to make the most of their time when they are there and to limit the overall space that therapy takes up in their schedules. We are happy to provide letters as needed to help schools accommodate these absences.

  • We strongly discourage this. We find that folx often underestimate themselves and assume they are struggling simply because there is a clear and straightforward answer that everyone else knows but they do not. The truth? Real change requires so much more than quick information. Also, we are rarely able to give you our best thinking without a lot of detail. Please book a session. We will make sure your time and money are used wisely.
