Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care



Erika commonly draws on client-centered therapy and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to guide her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening deeply and responding with empathy, helping clients build self-awareness and confidence while making choices that reflect their values. DBT combines skills training and practical tools for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing patterns that get in the way of daily functioning.

She also uses elements of narrative therapy, which invites clients to examine and reframe the stories they tell about themselves so they can identify strengths and alternative possibilities. Together these approaches help address concerns such as family conflict, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and stress by blending empathy, skill-building, and meaning-making.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Erika works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit best based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Online therapy offers practical flexibility - clients can meet by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging - making it easier to access consistent support around work, family, and life demands.
