About Erika

Erika Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Louisiana with 10 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, ADHD, and jealousy.

Erika forms a therapy relationship that lets people talk openly about what matters to them. She prioritizes honesty, empathy, and a nonjudgmental tone in sessions. Her style invites curiosity and creativity while keeping conversations grounded and practical.

She draws on a mix of methods including client-centered work and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses. Solution-focused tools are used to set achievable goals and track progress between meetings. Existential ideas are brought in when people need to clarify values and life purpose.

Erika has worked in a variety of settings with diverse people, addressing issues like abandonment, infidelity, substance concerns, control and commitment problems, isolation, and multicultural stressors.

How her approaches translate to online work

Erika uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening and understanding. This approach focuses on each person’s experience and helps build trust so they can speak honestly about worries like jealousy, grief, or low self-esteem.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT can help people learn new ways to respond to anxiety, impulsivity, and relationship stress through small exercises and practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Erika collaborates with people to choose methods that match their needs and goals. She checks in about what feels helpful and adjusts the plan over time so work in therapy fits real life.
