Background and approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy tools help people clarify values and take small steps toward change. Sessions focus on real-life problems and habits. Clients work on skills for sleep, eating, anger, and motivation.
Erica also addresses intimacy concerns, body image, and stress that comes from family or career changes. She brings experience with substance use and trauma-related concerns and supports people dealing with compassion fatigue and co-occurring issues. Her style combines listening with practical strategies so people can try new ways of coping between sessions.
Erica practices in Washington and conducts sessions in English. She offers multiple online formats to fit different schedules, and her booking follows a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.
How therapy approaches work online
Erica commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and when motivation feels low. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life behavior changes; it is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep, and eating concerns.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erica will talk with each person about their goals, daily routines, and what they find most helpful. Together they decide which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress or new needs emerge.
Online work uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so people can fit therapy into busy days. Video sessions let the therapist and client use visual cues and practice skills together. Phone calls need less bandwidth and can be easier when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat or text sessions provide quick check-ins, short coaching, or support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to keep consistent work on goals across a week or month.
