About Erica
She uses a mix of approaches drawn from evidence-based therapeutic techniques. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that keep problems going, building coping skills, and practicing new ways of responding to difficult feelings. Work often includes mindfulness exercises, skill-based strategies, and attention to how work and home life interact.
Erica holds a Master of Social Work and a PhD in Organizational Behavior, and she has ten years of clinical experience as a social worker. Before clinical practice she spent many years in corporate settings helping employees with personal and career challenges, which shaped how she views life stress and workplace issues.
Her approach is integrative, strengths-based, and trauma-informed. She draws on cognitive and acceptance-oriented methods alongside mindfulness and compassion-focused ideas. Therapy is collaborative: goals are set together and adjusted over time.

How evidence-based methods translate to online work
Dr. Johnson draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. This approach teaches concrete skills for reducing worry, improving mood, and changing patterns that fuel stress and anxiety.She also uses acceptance-oriented and mindfulness-informed techniques that focus on noticing difficult feelings without getting stuck in them. These methods help with persistent anxiety, rumination, and trauma-related reactions by teaching simple daily practices and coping strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose methods that match current goals, needs, and preferences. Over early sessions she checks in and adjusts methods so the plan fits the client's life and what they want to achieve.
Readers should confirm current session formats before booking, as specific online or in-person options are not listed here. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats also let people meet without being on camera or use phone calls when video is impractical. Ask about available formats when scheduling to find what works best.
