About Erica

Erica Crawford is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Georgia with four years of licensed clinical experience. She also holds the CSW credential. Erica works with adults facing anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, and issues related to sexuality and LGBT identity. She lists guilt and shame among her focus areas and helps people who are carrying those feelings alongside parenting, career, or life changes.

Erica draws on client-centered work to listen closely and center each person's priorities. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try different behaviors. Narrative and trauma-focused approaches are part of how she helps people make sense of painful events and their pasts.

Sessions aim to be straightforward and practical. Erica offers space to talk through what happened, how it affects daily life, and what small steps might ease constant self-blame or worry. She also works on skills for stress, attention and coping when ADHD or caregiving demands add pressure.

Erica describes herself as calm and a good listener. She communicates in English and works with adults in Georgia. Her background includes social work practice across multiple settings over more than a decade before her current clinical role.

To begin, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Payment is managed through a subscription that can be canceled at any time. She does not accept international clients.

How her approaches translate to online work

Erica uses client-centered therapy to focus sessions on what matters most to the person. That approach centers listening, clarifying goals, and shaping the work around the client's priorities.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and for tackling persistent guilt or shame by practicing different responses. Narrative therapy appears in her work as a way to examine the stories people tell about themselves and rewrite those stories more usefully after trauma or loss.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying a few strategies early on and adjusting as progress or new priorities appear.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make scheduling easier and help therapy fit into busy lives, such as allowing evening or weekend appointments, shorter check-ins when needed, and not having to travel to an office. Licensed professionals often use these practical benefits to help people keep therapy consistent alongside work, parenting, and caregiving demands.
