About Erica
Erica Thompson is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor with seven years of experience. She works with people who are feeling stressed, anxious, or stuck because of addictions, low self-esteem, or depression. Erica focuses on helping clients take practical steps toward feeling more confident and motivated.
She starts from the idea that each person knows their own story best. Sessions are collaborative and paced to fit the client’s needs. Erica highlights clients' strengths and helps them use those strengths to manage change and challenges in daily life.
Her approach blends several methods. She uses client-centered therapy to follow what matters most to the person in front of her. Cognitive behavioral techniques help identify unhelpful thought patterns and try new behaviors. Mindfulness and motivational strategies support focus, calm, and workable goals.
Erica has worked with a range of concerns beyond the core areas, including attachment issues, body image, communication problems, fatherhood issues, hoarding, and struggles with guilt and shame. She also has experience with issues related to HIV and AIDS and with some personality-related concerns.

How Erica brings common therapies to online work
Erica often integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy into her sessions. Client-centered work means the conversation follows what feels most urgent to the person and builds on their strengths to set goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy involves identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing different behaviors, and practicing new reactions to reduce anxiety or depressive patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Erica will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts plans as progress is made. The focus stays on clear, manageable steps and regularly checking whether the chosen approach is helping.
Session formats are not specified in the profile, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue momentum between in-person appointments and try tools such as thought records or mindfulness exercises during the week.
