Hey! If you're looking in to BetterHelp, I imagine you're struggling with something significant in your life. Good for you for looking to get help with these concerns! Being able to connect with your therapist is a big part of the process; I know first hand how scary it can be. I want to tell you a little about me to let you decide if my experience and therapy approach may be a good fit for you and your needs.
My name is Erica and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of GA. I have been a Social Worker for more than 14 years with experience with various populations, in various settings. I have worked with clients with a broad range of concerns from: anxiety, depression, life change, LGBTQ+ related issues, sexual/physical/emotional abuse, grief and loss, family dynamic concerns, and many more. Clients have given me feedback stating I am calm, a great listener, empathetic, nonjudgmental, and give clients a space to feel safe communicating their concerns. My goal is to offer clients a person who supports them and someone who is willing to walk thru the tough situations they are experiencing.
I am available to communicate with you in whatever manner best suits your needs, lifestyle, and schedule. I'm available mainly in the evenings or on weekends and I will check messages at least once per day. If you feel that I would be a good fit for you, I would consider it a privilege to be part of your journey.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
