Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support



Erica integrates client-centered therapy, which places the person’s own goals and experiences at the center of the work and helps build self-awareness, empowerment, and practical coping strategies for life stressors and relationship concerns. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and develop more constructive thinking patterns - an approach often helpful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.

Mindfulness therapy complements these methods by encouraging present-moment awareness and gentle attention to emotions and bodily sensations, which can support regulation and reduce reactivity in moments of distress. Erica works collaboratively with each person to determine which combination of approaches best fits their needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting strategies as progress is made.

Online therapy with Erica is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options allow clients to engage in therapy from home, balance treatment with work or family commitments, and choose the communication style that feels most comfortable for them while working toward their objectives with a licensed professional.
