Chris Erickson

Chris was a wonderful person, counselor and professor. She was always very easy to talk to and will be missed significantly by students and colleagues. My thoughts and prayers for her friends and family.

Dr. Erickson contributed so much to the counseling field, and brought joy to those around her. She will always be remembered and greatly missed.

Colleague and friend; advocate and compassionate helper. I remember Chris for her humor, her commitment to helping people with mental illness, and her passion for changing the system that delivers services to those who need help. I am proud to have worked with her and to know that she touched so many lives. I remember with joy the time when her GW family and her Alaska family met one June in the beautiful countryside she called home. I hope her spirit wanders her beloved mountains in peace.

Chris was my colleague at GW in the counseling department. She was always upbeat and optimistic. I will miss her very much.

Dr. Erickson was my advisor and professor during my Master's program at the George Washington University. She was one of my favorite professors and helped me in countless ways throughout my academic career at GWU. She provided guidance, support and inspiration to so many of us and I cannot imagine the counseling program without her. Dr. Erickson had such a warm presence and way of explaining things that made them easy to understand. She wanted so much for her students to succeed and she gave...

Dr. Erickson had a lively spirit and was full of life, it is hard to imagine that she is no longer with us. However, I know her sprit and energy live on. She was a wonderful professor who truly loved what she did- this was evident in her lectures and compassion for her students. I appreciated her generosity, kindness, and zest for life. My thoughts go out to her family at this difficult time- please know that this amazing woman will forever be remembered.- Mandy Freeman (FL)

Chris was one of the first to reach out to me when I began working at GW...she not only offered a realistic perspective about the university, but did so with humor, kindness, and humility. I've benefited from this tremendously and look forward to passing this wisdom on to others...in peace.
