More about Erica

  • 4 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in Florida with 4 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with coping with addictions, relationship issues, family conflicts, & coping with grief and loss. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

I will create a safe space for you to openly share your thoughts and feelings without judgment. My goal is to work together to develop clear, achievable goals that align with your personal values and aspirations.

My therapeutic approach is primarily client-centered and integrative, meaning I tailor treatment strategies to each individual's unique needs by drawing from various therapeutic modalities like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, and solution-focused brief therapy, prioritizing a collaborative and supportive environment where you actively participate in identifying and addressing your concerns to achieve meaningful change.

I want my clients to always feel comfortable speaking with me. This is a judgment-free zone, I am here to help in the best way that I can!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
