About Erica

Erica Crawford is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Georgia with four years of clinical experience as a licensed social worker. She lists a range of concerns she works with, including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, parenting stress, relationship strain, ADHD, addictions, and life changes.

Erica uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She aims to listen without judgment and to help people talk through what feels overwhelming. Conversations are paced to the individual's needs, and she keeps explanations direct so therapy feels practical and clear.

Her background combines several therapeutic approaches. Erica draws on Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the client's perspective. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Narrative Therapy is another influence, helping people reframe the stories they tell about themselves.

People contact her about caregiving stress, divorce and separation, end-of-life concerns, and issues linked to aging or hearing impairment. She also notes work with sexual assault and abuse, guilt and shame, women's issues, and sexuality. These are described as focus areas she addresses in sessions.

Erica asks people to choose the session options that best fit their schedule and to complete a short questionnaire before the first meeting. Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. She offers sessions in English and does not accept international clients at this time.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Erica uses Client-Centered Therapy to prioritize the client's perspective, focusing sessions on what the person brings and on listening carefully to their concerns. This approach helps people feel heard and helps shape goals based on their priorities.

She also employs Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers practical tools to challenge unhelpful thinking and to build different coping habits that can help with anxiety, depression, stress, and ADHD-related struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erica collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She checks in about what is and isn't helping and adjusts the plan together rather than sticking to a single method.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the profile does not list specific formats. People appreciate online options for fitting sessions into busy home schedules, for shorter check-ins when needed, and for avoiding travel time. Discussing timing and communication preferences early makes it easier to align therapy with everyday responsibilities.
