When trauma is part of the picture she brings trauma-focused methods to address safety and healing step by step.

Her style is straightforward and supportive. She encourages clients to name their priorities, practice new skills between sessions, and track what is working. Erica describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s perspective guides the work.

Erica has experience with parenting and family concerns, grief, LGBT matters, sexual assault and abuse, workplace stress, and issues common to young adults. She also addresses caregiver strain, communication problems, infidelity, and post-traumatic stress as needed. Her goal is to help people feel more able to cope and make choices that fit their lives.

How Erica Uses CBT and Trauma-Focused Work Online

Erica commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. CBT sessions typically involve setting clear goals, practicing skills during and between sessions, and reviewing what helped most. She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy when past harm affects daily life, working at a pace set by the client to address symptoms and rebuild coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Erica works collaboratively with each person to choose or combine methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. She explains options, listens to preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is tracked together.

Online therapy with Erica is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and communication styles. Video calls are useful for face-to-face interaction and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult, and live chat or text messaging offer brief check-ins or ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to attend sessions from work, home, or while caring for others, and to choose the format that best supports each step in therapy.
