About Erica
Erica Lackey is an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas with four years of counseling experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, depression, and changes in life. Erica also supports people facing relationship and family issues, grief, self-esteem struggles, career questions, coaching needs, and ADHD-related concerns.
Before her LPC work she spent nine years as a school counselor. That background gives her experience with everyday pressures that affect work, family life, and school routines. She brings that practical perspective into sessions and favors straightforward conversation about what is happening now.
Erica uses client-centered methods to focus on each person's concerns and priorities. She combines that with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to look at how thoughts, actions, and feelings interact. She also draws on Solution-Focused Therapy to identify small, manageable steps that move a person toward clearer goals.
In sessions she listens for what matters most and then helps set short-term goals. That can look like identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, trying new behaviors between sessions, or mapping out steps to improve communication at work or home. She explains options plainly and checks in about what is and isn't working.
People who come for help often want clear guidance and practical strategies. Erica aims to keep sessions direct and focused while respecting each person's pace. She works in English and practices in Texas.
How her approaches work for online sessions
Erica uses client-centered methods that focus on what the person brings to the session and what matters most to them. That approach helps guide the conversation so goals reflect a client's priorities rather than a preset plan.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify links between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. In online sessions this often means talking through specific situations, noticing unhelpful thought patterns, and agreeing on small behavioral experiments to try before the next meeting.
Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on clear, short-term steps and practical goals. It is useful when someone wants concrete progress in areas like communication, stress management, or daily routines.
Figuring out which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods based on current needs, goals, and how the client prefers to work. That conversation can change over time as progress or obstacles become clearer.
Confirm the available session formats before booking since session options are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow for follow-up work between appointments. Practical benefits include more flexible scheduling and the ability to continue care when in-person meetings are difficult to arrange.
