More about Erika

As a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Ohio, I specialize in supporting individuals navigating complex life transitions, particularly young adults and individuals experiencing significant emotional challenges. My professional focus centers on boundaries, communication dynamics, and end-of-life counseling, with significant expertise in grief and loss.

I approach therapy with compassion and understanding, recognizing that each person's journey is unique. My practice creates a supportive environment where clients can explore difficult emotions, heal intergenerational patterns, and develop healthier communication strategies. Whether you're struggling with family dynamics, processing loss, or seeking guidance through difficult life transitions, I'm committed to walking alongside you with empathy and professional insight.

My therapeutic approach is collaborative and tailored to your individual needs, drawing from evidence-based practices that honor your personal experiences and strengths. I believe in empowering clients to discover their inner resilience and create meaningful, positive change in their lives.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
