How Erika’s Approaches Work Online
Erika often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening and following the person's priorities to guide change. This approach helps people feel heard and arrive at their own solutions through supportive conversation. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a hands-on method that looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. CBT helps people identify unhelpful thinking, practice new responses, and reduce anxiety or depressive symptoms through concrete exercises. Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Erika will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts pacing and techniques so the work feels useful and manageable. Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people have full conversations face to face. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, ongoing skill practice, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options increase flexibility and make it simpler to maintain regular sessions while using the therapeutic methods described above to address anxiety, grief, and life changes.Questions people ask
