About Erika
Erika Posey is a licensed master social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She works with individuals dealing with relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, trauma, grief, and issues around self-esteem and addiction. Erika speaks English and practices from Michigan with seven years of clinical experience.
Erika uses straightforward, practical methods in sessions. She leans on cognitive behavioral tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and shift behaviors. She also uses dialectical behavior skills to help people manage intense emotions and build better coping strategies.
Attachment-based ideas guide how she looks at relationships and bonding, especially around parenting and maternal-infant needs. Emotionally-focused techniques are also part of her approach when people want to improve connection or address patterns that repeat in relationships.
Her style is easy-going and strength-focused. She works with clients to set clear, achievable goals and practices motivational interviewing and self-esteem building exercises during sessions. Erika aims to help people improve daily functioning and feel more capable in their roles at home and at work.
People often come to her for help with parenting skills, blended family issues, communication problems, compassion fatigue, ADHD-related concerns, and coping after loss or trauma. She draws on a range of approaches to match a person’s needs and helps them find practical steps they can use between visits.
How her approaches translate to online work
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how relationships shape emotions and behavior. In practice that means looking at patterns of closeness and distance and helping people try new ways of connecting, which can be useful for parenting and intimacy-related concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. It often includes homework, like tracking moods or trying brief experiments, so clients can see concrete changes between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing intense emotions and improving distress tolerance. People learn short strategies for staying calm and clearer ways to communicate when feelings run high.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Erika will discuss goals, preferences, and the issues you bring, and then suggest techniques that fit your needs. The process is collaborative and adjusts as progress is made.

It can also allow for shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and let people choose quieter times that work around childcare or work breaks.
