About Erica

Erica Colbert is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma, and low self-esteem. She supports adults and teens as they face life transitions and painful patterns that spill into daily routines. Her style aims to be straightforward and caring so people can start making changes without getting overwhelmed.

Erica focuses on communication, attachment patterns, and building emotional resilience. Sessions look at how past relationships and family history shape current reactions. She offers practical steps clients can try between sessions and uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide that work.

People often come to Erica for help with infidelity, jealousy, codependency, commitment worries, and family-of-origin concerns. She also supports those coping with caregiver stress, blended family adjustments, aging questions, and struggles around forgiveness, guilt, or life purpose. Her interest is in clear, usable tools rather than jargon.

With five years of clinical experience in Pennsylvania, Erica draws on steady, applied methods to help clients notice patterns and test different ways of responding. Her approach balances listening with concrete options clients can practice in real life.

Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking to make sure the format fits their needs.

How Erica Uses Evidence-Based Approaches Online

Two evidence-based approaches Erica draws on are attachment-focused work and practical skills training. Attachment-focused work looks at how early relationships shape current reactions and helps people test new ways of relating. Practical skills training teaches clear strategies for communication, emotion regulation, and managing anxiety so clients can try them between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erica will talk with each person about their goals, life context, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide which techniques to prioritize and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Confirm the available session options before booking so the format fits your needs. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut commute time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It can also make some steps of therapy - like practicing communication skills between meetings - simpler to coordinate with daily life.
