Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Erica uses client-centered therapy to place each person’s goals and experiences at the center of the work, creating space for empathy, collaboration, and individualized planning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps clients identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors, and is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers practical skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be helpful for intense emotions, relationship challenges, and impulsivity.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Erica works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time so the work remains relevant and effective for each person.

Online therapy with Erica is offered through a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These remote options make it possible to access licensed professionals and therapists from home, balance therapy with other obligations, and continue consistent care even when life is busy or transitions occur.
