Her approach blends Client-Centered Therapy with cognitive and mindfulness tools. That means she listens first, then offers skills and strategies people can try between sessions. She also draws on motivational interviewing techniques to boost readiness for change.

Erica has seven years of professional experience as an LMHC, licensed in Florida.

She also supports people affected by family problems, fatherhood issues, and specific challenges like hoarding and HIV/AIDS.

In sessions she keeps language plain and goals concrete. People can expect collaborative planning, simple exercises to practice at home, and regular check-ins on what is working. Erica asks people to be candid about what they need so she can match interventions to real life.

How Erica’s approaches fit into online therapy

Erica often pairs a client-centered stance with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. Client-Centered Therapy means she listens carefully and follows the client’s priorities, helping people name what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety and depression. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices that can help with stress and cravings.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erica will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and daily life. Together they try methods that feel useful and adjust the plan based on what helps between sessions.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and support steady check-ins for practice and progress. It also allows for brief problem-focused sessions or longer weekly meetings depending on what the client needs.
