Erica Evans, LCSW, CSW

Erica Evans is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Georgia. She helps people who are stressed, grieving, feeling stuck, or coping with anxiety, depression, addiction, and trauma. Erica uses a straightforward, respectful style and focuses on each person’s strengths when they begin therapy.

She works from a client-centered, solution-focused perspective that aims for practical change. Erica draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and mindfulness techniques to help people manage thoughts, emotions, and behaviors in daily life. Motivational interviewing is also part of her approach to support readiness for change.

Sessions are grounded in empathy and clear guidance. Erica treats people as the experts of their own stories and helps them build plans that fit their goals. She emphasizes small, achievable steps that can lead to noticeable differences over time.

With nine years of experience, Erica has worked with people navigating life changes, parenting challenges, relationship strain, compassion fatigue, career transitions, anger, and self-esteem issues. Her background includes supporting people after trauma and abuse, while also addressing related concerns like grief and addiction.

Erica asks new clients to consider the step they have already taken by reaching out. She collaborates on goal setting and outlines practical strategies for change. To begin, prospective clients follow the site's intake process and schedule sessions according to availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online care

Erica uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on each person’s experience and priorities. This approach means sessions emphasize listening, respect, and collaboratively set goals to match what the client wants to change.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT offers practical exercises and homework that can reduce anxiety, lift mood, and improve daily routines.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are key goals. DBT teaches clear, trainable techniques for handling intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erica will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and will suggest which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and adjustments happen as therapy progresses.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm which session formats are currently offered before booking. Many people appreciate online sessions because they make it easier to fit therapy into workdays, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some approaches, like CBT or skills practice, adapt well to remote sessions and can include between-session exercises that fit into everyday life.
