How Erica works
In sessions she treats each person as the expert on their own life. She listens for strengths and builds on them. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs.
Erica draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address difficult memories, worry, and relationship patterns. She helps people learn new ways to respond to stress, set boundaries, and improve communication. Her approach aims to make change feel possible.
She supports practical steps between sessions and encourages small experiments that fit real life. People who want clear tools and steady support usually find the work helpful. Erica offers multiple online formats to fit different schedules and preferences.

Online support options
Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care
Erica draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing unhelpful patterns and managing strong emotions. One common approach teaches skills for coping with anxiety and stress through breath, grounding, and behavior change exercises that can reduce day-to-day overwhelm. Another approach addresses trauma and relationship patterns by helping people process painful memories, notice how past experiences shape current reactions, and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erica works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques if something isn’t helping.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video is useful for longer therapy sessions and face-to-face conversation, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging can support brief check-ins, skill practice between sessions, or people who prefer written exchanges. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
