More about Erica

  • 21 years' experience

  • Psychologist

I have over 20 years of clinical experience working with clients. My approach is warm, empathic and unique to each client's needs. I have a strong background in cognitive behavioral therapy, assessment, positive psychology, mindfulness and meditation and I believe in a holistic approach to promote health and wellness. I try to help clients identify, clarify and prioritize goals and enjoy working with individuals to build pathways toward positive change. It would be an honor to learn more about you, to see if I would be a good fit for your therapy needs.

We can work together to increase your sense of well-being and overall quality of life. In addition to psychotherapy, I offer comprehensive assessment of attention, learning and processing issues as well as the UCLA Longevity Center's Brain Bootcamp Program.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
