Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques help people change thoughts and habits that fuel anxiety and depression.

Motivational Interviewing can help people who feel stuck or uncertain about change, especially around addiction or career moves.
She has eight years of experience working with a wide range of concerns, including trauma, ADHD, grief, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and first responder stress. Erica also addresses challenges like hoarding, eating and sleeping problems, and compassion fatigue. Her sessions aim to be practical and collaborative.
Clients typically set manageable steps and practice skills between meetings. Erica supports people as they try new strategies and adjust what isn’t working.
How Erica’s Approaches Work Online
Erica uses a mix of client-centered work and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation so clients feel heard and respected. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when needed to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are useful for managing intense emotions, reducing reactivity, and improving day-to-day coping in stressful situations.
Erica treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She will talk with each person about their goals, try strategies, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. That collaborative process helps identify which techniques fit a person’s needs and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video works well for in-depth conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for ongoing prompts, brief support, and tracking progress between sessions.
