How Erika’s approaches translate to online sessions
Erika draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and self-compassion. One common approach emphasizes building self-compassion and self-worth through structured exercises and reflective conversation; this helps people challenge negative self-talk and develop kinder internal habits. Another approach focuses on problem-solving and behavioral changes to reduce depressive symptoms and manage life transitions; this involves setting small, achievable goals and tracking progress together.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erika will work with clients to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust strategies as work progresses. Clients are invited to give feedback so sessions stay relevant and focused on what helps most.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use simpler setups like audio-only if that suits their comfort or bandwidth. Ask about specific formats when you begin the matching questionnaire so scheduling matches your routine and needs.
