About Erika
Erika Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Louisiana with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, trauma and abuse, depression, low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, ADHD, and related life changes.
She focuses on building a trusting therapeutic relationship where people can speak openly about difficult thoughts and feelings. That relationship is where the work starts. Sessions aim to address what is happening now and what gets in the way of change.
Her style leans toward practical, curiosity-driven work. Conversations include questions that help people notice patterns and try new behaviors. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy tools are used to identify unhelpful thinking and test different responses, and solution-focused techniques help set short-term steps to reduce conflict and manage strong emotions like anger.
Erika also draws on client-centered and existential ideas to help people clarify values, meaning, and choices. She encourages honest discussion about fears, commitments, and relationship patterns. When trauma is relevant, she uses trauma-focused ideas to help people process difficult events and reduce their ongoing impact.
Sessions are straightforward and grounded in everyday life. Erika talks through practical strategies for communication, impulse control, and rebuilding trust after relationship strain. People who want to manage anger, reduce resentment, or handle stress at work or home will find focused, action-oriented support.
Her work has included a range of settings and diverse populations across Louisiana. Sessions are offered in English, and she accepts international clients. Cost varies with location and uses a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How her approaches translate to remote sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of her. In practice this means sessions prioritize honest conversation and reflecting what matters most to the client, helpful for relationship and self-esteem concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches straightforward skills to notice automatic thoughts and test different behaviors, which is useful for anger, anxiety, and impulsivity. Existential Therapy helps people look at values, responsibility, and life choices, which can be useful when coping with major life changes or feelings of emptiness.Choosing the best approach is collaborative. She will work with the client to try techniques, check what helps, and adjust plans based on goals and feedback. Early sessions often focus on immediate steps for managing strong reactions and improving communication, while later sessions may explore deeper patterns and values.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and let people use video or audio in ways that suit their bandwidth and comfort. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises and solution-focused tasks to remote sessions so practical work continues between meetings.
