About Erika

Erika Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana who brings a decade of clinical experience to work with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, and a range of relationship and identity concerns.

Background and approach

She emphasizes building a strong therapeutic alliance as the foundation for exploring intimate thoughts, emotions, and life patterns, and she draws on multiple methods to tailor care to each person’s needs. Her style blends curiosity and creativity with grounded strategies to support change.

Erika uses evidence-informed tools alongside client-centered principles to address issues like low self-esteem, parenting struggles, intimacy-related matters, grief around separation, addiction concerns, and multicultural or LGBT-related challenges. Honesty and empathy guide sessions while she encourages clients to take courageous steps toward growth.

Erika’s practice aims to help clients clarify values, improve communication, and develop practical skills for coping with life transitions and impulsivity. She works collaboratively to identify goals and employ techniques such as cognitive-behavioral interventions and solution-focused problem solving, helping people discover strengths and move toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Erika frequently uses Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes empathy, active listening, and collaboration so clients feel heard and supported while they explore personal values and emotional concerns. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and practice skills that reduce anxiety, improve mood, and manage impulsivity or ADHD-related challenges. Solution-Focused Therapy is another tool she uses to set clear goals and build on existing strengths with practical, short-term strategies.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Erika works with each person to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds and priorities shift.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules and to maintain continuity during life changes. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide consistent therapeutic support, skill-building, and problem solving from a distance while accommodating varied communication styles and time constraints.
