About Erica
She focuses on practical steps you can use between sessions. Erica listens first and then helps people try tools that fit their daily life. She often combines client-centered conversations with approaches that look at thinking patterns, life stories, and short-term problem solving.
Erica works with concerns such as coping with life changes, grief, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, ADHD, relationship strain, parenting challenges, career issues, and LGBT-related matters. She also notes experience supporting people facing aging, caregiver stress, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, hearing impairment, hospice and end-of-life concerns, sexual assault and abuse, sexuality, and women’s issues.
Her style is calm and nonjudgmental. Erica aims to create a space where people feel heard and able to speak plainly about what’s hard. She explains options clearly and partners with clients to choose the pace and focus of therapy.
Sessions are scheduled to fit people’s lifestyles, with an emphasis on evening and weekend times. To begin, clients use the site’s matching process and then set appointments based on Erica’s availability. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How Erica’s approaches translate to online work
Erica uses client-centered therapy to create a space where people feel heard and respected. That approach focuses on following the person’s lead, reflecting what matters most, and building a trusting working relationship that supports change.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors affect mood. CBT offers clear strategies for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping during life transitions by breaking problems into manageable steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Erica will talk with clients about their goals and preferences, then help decide which methods to try first. That choice is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online appointments can make it easier to fit sessions into busy days, allow for evening or weekend scheduling, and reduce travel time. Some formats also allow shorter check-ins when needed or sessions without video when that better suits the person’s routine. Discuss format and scheduling during the matching and intake steps to align therapy with daily life.
