How Erika Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online

Erika commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and reframe unhelpful thoughts and to build practical coping skills for anxiety, depression, and stress. She also uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses, which can help with family and relationship concerns.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erika will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then tailor methods that feel useful and doable. The plan can change as needs shift over time.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support brief check-ins, coaching, and reminders between sessions. These options help fit therapy into busy lives and different daily rhythms.
