About Erica

LISW, LICSW social worker with 10 years’ experience, based in Alabama. Erica Innocent focuses on stress, anxiety, family concerns, self-esteem, depression, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, eating and parenting challenges. She uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. Erica speaks English and Haitian Creole.

Erica begins by listening to what matters most to the person in front of her. She draws on each person’s strengths and helps them recognize practical resources they already have. She uses client-centered methods to make room for the person’s priorities and pacing.

When thoughts get in the way, Erica uses CBT techniques to show how certain patterns of thinking affect mood and behavior. She breaks down unhelpful thought cycles into steps people can work on between sessions. Mindfulness tools are offered to help manage stress and bring attention back to the present.

Erica has worked with people from varied backgrounds over a decade. She aims to reduce judgment and focus on concrete coping skills. Her experience includes attention to eating and food-related issues and to antisocial personality concerns where those arise.

She lives in Alabama and provides electronic service delivery for residents of Ohio, Texas, California, and Alabama. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

How her approaches translate to remote sessions

Erica uses Client-Centered Therapy to ground sessions. That means she focuses on a person’s priorities and listens for what matters most. Sessions aim to follow the client’s pace and choices while the therapist offers questions and reflections.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In remote work this often looks like identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, setting small practice tasks, and reviewing progress from week to week. Mindfulness Therapy is used to teach simple attention and breathing exercises that help with stress and anxiety and can be practiced between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Erica will collaborate with the person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That process may shift over time as needs change.

The biography indicates electronic service delivery for residents of Ohio, Texas, California, and Alabama. If you want to know which specific remote formats are offered, confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a work break, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight.
