About Erica
Erica Follick is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in New York with eight years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with relationship strain, parenting stress, career transitions, anxiety, depression, grief, and anger. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps rather than labels or jargon.
She uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide conversations and set goals. That means she listens for what matters to the person, then works on thoughts and behaviors that get in the way. Conversations are collaborative and action-oriented, with time set aside for skills practice and planning.
Erica draws on experience helping people adjust to life changes, manage stress, and rebuild confidence. She also supports people facing trauma, intimacy challenges, eating and sleeping difficulties, and compassion fatigue. Her work includes coaching-style conversations for career and life direction alongside clinical approaches for mood and anxiety concerns.
Sessions aim to be straightforward. Erica breaks down problems into manageable parts, helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns, and tries out different coping strategies in session. Clients leave with simple tools to try between meetings and a plan for what to work on next.
She practices in New York and conducts therapy in English. People who want to begin are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's online flow.
How Erica uses Client-Centered and CBT approaches online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, building rapport, and centering what matters to the person. Sessions start by exploring concerns and priorities so goals come from the client rather than a preset plan.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT offers specific techniques such as identifying unhelpful thought patterns and practicing new behaviors, which can help with anger, anxiety, and mood challenges.
Deciding which approach fits best is a collaborative process. Erica will discuss options, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The therapist and client work together to set short-term steps and measure progress over time.
