More about Erica

  • 4 years' experience

I am a licensed professional counselor in Texas with 4 years of experience as an LPC. Prior to working as an LPC, I worked in the school setting as a school counselor for 9 years. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including stress and anxiety, trauma and abuse, relationship issues, parenting issues, and depression.

I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgement. I tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! I look forward to working with you!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

I started therapy with Erica about a month ago. I had tried it a few times and I didn’t have much luck. I have a few different issues going on and I needed someone who was open minded and this experience with her has been a pleasant surprise! After a session, after talking about some things that I generally get anxiety from, I am left feeling very calm and able to really sit back and reflect and go into my next week with a good mindset! I definitely recommend her and I look forward to my sessions every week!

Erica is great.

Reviewed December 2022

Erica is attentive, smart and critically thinks through issues. She is kind and thoughtful in helping me reach solutions. She is intuitive and perceptive to draw out issues that I hint to but might not realize I have. She is direct when needed and supportive in helping me listen to the words that are coming from my own mouth. She reflects, reframes and repeats solutions she hears me say when I say them helping me realize the solution is already inside.

She listens, she is patient and is helping stay grounded.

I had been ignoring the need for therapy for quite some time, even after going through a major life event. I even tried a session with someone else and was very guarded and simply not ready to return. One session with Erica COMPLETELY changed my perspective. We discussed objectives, set goals, even did some worksheet assignments and journaling assignments.. Erica literally knows how to identify the type of individual you are and adapt her messaging and "homework" accordingly, in a way that it will most purposeful for you. Erica has a way of challenging you in a way that doesn't cross any boundaries or make you feel uncomfortable. She truly wants what's best for you. AND she somehow remembers EVERYTHING. Like how is that even possible?! All of this to say, I'm so grateful for Erica for helping me work through the things I want to work through, ultimately so I can find happiness and peace in my life. I'm so thankful for Erica and I look forward to continuing this journey with her!
