About Erica
Erica Follick is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in New York. She draws on eight years of clinical work to help people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship struggles. Erica offers a straightforward and compassionate presence in sessions.
Her practice centers on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). She uses these approaches to help people change unhelpful thoughts, practice new behaviors, and build clearer communication in relationships.
How Erica works
Sessions are collaborative and focused on achievable steps. Erica frequently supports people dealing with parenting stress, career shifts, grief, trauma and abuse, and challenges tied to intimacy or self-esteem. She also addresses sleeping and eating concerns, bipolar mood patterns, compassion fatigue, and anger.
Her work includes both therapy and coaching-style conversations when appropriate. In sessions she keeps language direct and practical. People can expect talk therapy that moves toward concrete goals, skill practice between sessions, and regular check-ins on progress.
She avoids labels and centers respect and sensitivity in every conversation. Erica meets clients using video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. She guides each person toward a plan that fits their life and preferences, and she helps prioritize small changes that add up over time.

How Client-Centered and CBT Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship. The therapist listens closely and mirrors what the client is saying so people feel heard and clearer about their goals. This approach helps when someone needs empathy and a steady space to sort through feelings.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. Sessions include practical exercises to challenge unhelpful thoughts and try new actions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and patterns that keep repeating.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Erica will talk with each person about their goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan as work progresses. The therapist collaborates on what feels most helpful and focuses on concrete steps toward improvement.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a short break at work. Live chat and messaging let people check in between sessions or use written reflection. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting into a busy life.
