Erica Anderson, LPC - Therapist in Texas

About Erica

Erica Anderson is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, and life transitions. She speaks plainly and offers steady support for concerns like depression, grief, parenting strain, addiction, and relationship or intimacy-related problems. Erica works with adults who want practical skills and clearer direction.

Erica uses a mix of therapy methods to fit each person's needs. She draws on client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space.

Background and approach

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and build new patterns. For people dealing with emotional regulation or chronic stress, she brings in dialectical behavior therapy skills like mindfulness and distress tolerance. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is ready to make change but feels stuck.

The Gottman Method is included when the focus is on improving communication and relationship patterns. Erica has eight years of professional experience and holds the LPC credential, licensing number TX LPC 73972. She practices in Texas and offers sessions in English.

Her approach is collaborative: she listens first, then tailors tools and homework to fit each person's life and goals. In sessions clients can expect clear explanations, focused skill practice, and ongoing check-ins about progress. Erica emphasizes small, manageable steps toward greater stability and wellbeing, and she adjusts the plan as needs evolve.

How Erica’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Erica commonly uses client-centered therapy to begin work. That means sessions start with listening and respect, and priorities come from the person seeking help. This approach is useful for building trust and figuring out what to focus on.

She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online sessions this often looks like identifying unhelpful thinking, trying new behaviors, and reviewing what changed between meetings. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, and many daily stressors.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Erica will talk through options and tailor methods to a person’s goals, preferences, and the issues at hand. Together they decide which tools to try and how to adjust them over time.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep working on skills between meetings. The variety lets people choose the way they communicate best while still using the same therapeutic methods.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
