Background and approach
Sessions center on what matters most to each person and move at a comfortable pace. Her work often addresses relationship strain, grief, anger, and career concerns, along with support for people in the LGBT community. She also helps clients living with ADHD find concrete strategies to cope and stay organized.
Conversations focus on building confidence and motivation as clients move toward clearer priorities. In sessions Erica uses approaches that invite collaboration and problem solving. She helps clients notice patterns, test small changes, and track progress.
The emphasis is on usable skills that fit everyday life, not jargon or long lectures. People who choose Erica usually want straightforward guidance and steady support while they make changes. She encourages small steps and celebrates improvements along the way.
If someone is ready to try therapy, she helps them turn goals into practical plans.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Erica uses client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral strategies to guide online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's experience so they feel heard and can explore priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. Motivational Interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and build confidence to take the next step.Finding the best approach is part of the process. Erica works together with each person to pick methods that match their goals, preferences, and daily life. Sessions involve trying ideas, checking what helps, and adjusting as needed so the plan stays useful.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let conversations feel closer to in-person meetings. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth or camera time is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework, or support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments while using the same therapeutic approaches you would get in person.
