Erica is a gladiator in me. Not a lot of therapists that I had before her that would go the mile for me. No matter what's going on in her life. She will message me and see how my day is. She is one and a million therapists that we need today in this chaos of a world. She is authentic, vulnerable and real. I have been talking with her for years and she helped me become a better person. She bust her butt for her clients and I’m proud that she is my therapist.

Are you ready to experience more joy and happiness in your life?

Are you ready to reach your goals and live a more fulfilling life?

​Are you ready to have more energy and a healthy mindset?

Do you feel stuck in an endless cycle of stress, anxiety, and depression? Is your self-esteem low or non-existent? Are you having problems in your relationships? Change is hard, but I believe that every person has the potential to be the best version of him or herself that he or she can be, and that you are the expert of your life. I can help you become empowered to make the changes you want for your life.

​As a therapist, I offer an honest, respectful, non-judgmental environment to empower clients to achieve short and long term goals. In this compassionate safe relationship I will support you in finding and creating meaning and purpose in your life. My counseling style is direct and interactive. We will do this by examining old beliefs and habits that have been holding you back.

The compassionate relationship that is forged in therapy can bring about the insight, clarity and love needed to begin to grow and regain hope for your future. My experience is in private practice, residential treatment centers and inpatient psychiatry for over a decade. The patient population that I have the most expertise in are Depression, Anxiety Disorders, Bipolar I and II, Borderline Personality, and other Personality Disorders.



My mission is to help others find peace, joy and love in their lives. I bring with me over a decade of experience providing individual and group counseling for all ages. My integrated approach is tailored to the individual using methods in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical behavior therapy, Mindfulness, and Solution-focused therapy techniques.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Reviewed December 2018

I grew up believing therapy was useless and a waste of time. I did not need people, especially friends, a girlfriend and a wife. Offspring was not an option. The rationale was that I could not trust anyone but myself. Regardless, I could live a happy life in solitude. Naturally, I adopted antisocial attitudes. For much of my teens and twenties, I took massive pride in being an “antisocial” individual. I did not see an antisocial personality as being a passing adolescent phase, but rather as a way to protect myself from what I believed was a dog-eat-dog world. I have been talking to Erica for a year and a half, and over time, I have discovered that the world is a beautiful place and that most people are goodhearted. Moreover, I have learned that I am a people person. I used to think of myself as The Grinch, extremely bitter about the happiness I saw in others’ friendships and romance. I was bitter because I thought those joys were out of reach, but I later found that I was simply depriving myself of them. For the longest time, I thought I did not need those things. I still do not believe that I need them, but I will say that the people who are already in my life have brought me much happiness. Also, I finally rid myself of the assumption that misery is a just way of life (it’s not). I thought that I enjoyed pain, but I told myself I enjoyed it because it was a “necessity” and therefore I needed to like it. I do not see any use in pain, anymore, and I have chosen to steer clear of people who wish to hurt me like the plague. Moreover, my perspective on therapy has completely changed. I now see the benefits, the most important being my self-growth. I will admit that, in first seeking therapy, I wanted to be immediately fixed. I wanted to be a productive member of society. I was already was a productive member of society and just had massively low self-esteem. Self-confidence is still not one of my strengths, but I love myself more than I have ever in my entire life. That sums up my testimony for my treatment under Erica, who has helped make my life easier because she opened my eyes. I did not need to be fixed because I was never really broken to begin with, but I would never had that epiphany without her.

I've talked to several other therapists, some for a quite a while, but I never felt as comfortable or open with them as I do in my short time working with Erica. I've already been able to tell her things I'd thought would die with me. Erica treats me like I'm important to her and like she honestly cares about me; that's something I've rarely experienced in my life.

I love how real Erica is. She lets me have a sense of humor about some really hard situations, and is able to laugh with me. She listens to what I'm saying (and what I'm not saying), rather than making assumptions about what my experience or feelings would be. I really appreciate her!

It's only been a two weeks but I do feel like talking with Erica has really helped me with my trust issues. I feel better talking to my friends and family since Erica made me realize it's alright to share and people won't judge you.

Started using the service a couple of months ago. Really impressed with my counsellor and the overall experience using the app. The way you can access your session from any place at any time has been of great use to me. My counsellor Erica has been wonderful, very open minded, understanding and helpful. I would highly recommend that anyone who needs to talk about something try Better Help. If you're matched with Erica know you're in good hands =)

Erica has been very kind and patient. We didn't end up working together as I had to cancel my membership, but she seems like a very loving, caring and helpful counselor. If I sign back up, I am hoping to start working with her again.

Erica is a wonderful person. She was very understanding, however, she would not let me wallow in self pity. She would continually bring me around to what positive steps that I could take to be at peace and to have success in my life.
