About Erica

Erica Rosenthal, LMHC, helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship troubles, and self esteem concerns. She works with individuals facing grief, trauma, parenting challenges, and career or life transitions. Her approach aims to support people who want clearer direction and more balance in daily life.

Erica brings about 15 years of experience in mental health and substance use work in Washington.

She also draws on acceptance and commitment therapy and attachment-based ideas to help people notice what matters most to them.

Sessions are collaborative and straightforward. Erica focuses on small, doable changes and building skills that fit everyday routines. She balances problem-solving techniques with attention to feelings and relationships so progress can hold up over time.

She has worked with concerns such as eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, compassion fatigue, intimacy-related issues, and codependency. Erica also supports people affected by domestic violence, family-of-origin problems, and chronic illness when those issues affect daily functioning.

Her appointments are scheduled during mornings and mid-afternoons; she does not offer evenings or weekends. People interested in starting can expect a supportive, goal-oriented process aimed at practical improvements.

How Erica’s approaches translate to online work

Erica often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy in straightforward ways. CBT focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and changing unhelpful behaviors to improve mood and functioning, which helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and some eating concerns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify personal values and take actions that matter, useful for low motivation, self esteem, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships, helpful for anger, impulsive behaviors, and distress tolerance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Erica will discuss your goals and preferences and then suggest approaches that fit your situation. The selection is collaborative and can be adjusted as you try different tools and notice what helps.

The original profile does not specify which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Many people find remote sessions helpful because they can fit therapy into a workday, avoid travel, or have shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, ACT, and DBT exercises to an online setting so practical skills are still taught and practiced.
