How Erika’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what the person brings to the room. The therapist reflects, asks questions, and helps clarify goals so people feel heard and understood. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress.

Deciding which approach to use is a team effort. Erika will work with each person to choose or combine methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process is part of therapy and can be adjusted as people try different ideas.

The practical benefits of online therapy can include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to check in during breaks, follow up on skills between meetings, or maintain continuity when routines change.
