How Erica’s approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding the person’s perspective and building trust. In practice this means the therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and supports people in finding their own solutions to stress, anxiety, or low self-esteem.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits and replace them with more useful ones. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and difficulty with motivation by breaking problems into manageable steps and practicing new skills.
Motivational interviewing is a conversational style that helps people find their own reasons for change. It can be useful when someone feels stuck or unsure how to move forward with goals like improving confidence or making career changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit each person’s needs. That collaborative process helps make sessions feel relevant and practical.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how sessions happen. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text messaging can be used for shorter check-ins or step-by-step planning. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
