Approaches that fit online therapy
Erica draws from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on clear skills and real-life changes. One common approach she uses emphasizes identifying unhelpful thinking and practicing alternative responses to reduce anxiety and worry. This method helps people notice patterns and try new behaviors when stress rises. Another strand of work centers on attachment and relationship patterns, helping people recognize how early experiences shape current communication and closeness. That kind of work supports healthier boundaries and stronger emotional regulation.Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Erica collaborates with each person to figure out what methods match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She adjusts plans as work unfolds so sessions remain practical and relevant to daily life.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial expressions and practice communication in the moment. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging offer frequent, brief touchpoints that fit into busy schedules. These options make therapy flexible and accessible for varied routines and responsibilities.
