About Erica
Erica Brodowski is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Indiana. She focuses on practical, goal-oriented work that makes daily life feel more manageable. Erica writes short plans with clients and keeps sessions grounded and respectful. She aims to help people build confidence and find ways to cope when life feels overwhelming.
Erica brings six years of professional experience supporting people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and major life transitions. She also addresses compassion fatigue, relationship strain, grief, trauma and abuse, seasonal affective disorder, and concerns around self-harm. Her approach adapts to the situation and the person in front of her.
In sessions Erica draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and take meaningful action, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thinking patterns, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotional regulation and coping. She also uses Motivational Interviewing and solution-focused techniques to keep work practical and forward-moving.
Erica emphasizes a client-centered style that treats people with respect and sensitivity. Sessions are individualized so goals are clear and achievable. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes, with the therapist supporting each client’s pace.
If someone wants to begin, Erica asks for a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling based on availability. The process is straightforward so people can focus on the work they want to do.
How Erica's approaches translate to online work
Erica commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify what matters to them and take small steps that align with those values. This approach is useful for stress, low motivation, and life transitions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another core method she uses to spot patterns of thinking that worsen mood and to practice alternative responses. CBT is practical for anxiety and depression symptoms.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Erica will work with each person to try methods that fit their goals and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, shorten check-ins when needed, and reduce the need to travel. Those practical benefits help people maintain regular sessions and keep momentum between appointments.
