So you survived a pandemic, losses and uncertainty? Resilience is within you. My name is Dr. Erica, I am a psychotherapist and professor in the Chicago and Northwest Indiana area. I believe that we all possess abilities within us that can help us overcome the most difficult of times. Let us work together to use that same resilience to overcome other life stressors, be it anxiety, depression or relationship problems. I provide virtual sessions that allow you to sit in the comfort of your home while we explore possibilities to relieving the stress or discomfort you are experiencing. Empathy, openness and being nonjudgmental are some things that I hold dear to my practice. If you are tired of struggling in silence and feel like enough is enough, reach out today and let us work together to find possible solutions to the problem.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our first session, clients can expect to learn more about the therapeutic process and outline what they are hoping to get from therapy. My goal is to ensure that clients feel heard and understood in a judgment free space.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
My treatment methods are integrative. I believe that each person has a uniqueness about them that requires methods that are tailored to their needs. As such, I employ various modalities when working with clients which include the use of DBT, CBT, Existential and Solution-Focused methods to treatment.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
While I have numerous years of experience in a multitude of areas such as trauma, self-esteem and women's issues, I specialize in areas such as grief, anxiety, depression, relationship and LGBTQIA+ issues. My greatest strengths involve having a multicultural awareness when working with clients. I typically work with immigrants, couples and adults.
