About Erica

Erica Brumfield is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Mississippi with 17 years of experience. She centers her work on creating an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions, build confidence, and address concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, motivation, and relationship or family difficulties.

Background and approach

Drawing from methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, client-centered approaches, and motivational interviewing, she helps individuals identify patterns of thinking and behavior and develop practical strategies for change. Erica emphasizes collaboration, meeting people where they are and supporting them as they take steps toward clearer goals and greater emotional well-being.

Clients can expect a supportive presence focused on empowerment and practical progress. She frames therapy as a courageous step and partners with each person to tailor the work to their priorities, whether coping with grief, managing anger, navigating career decisions, or addressing ADHD-related challenges.

Practical Approaches for Online Growth

Erica draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients recognize and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and develop concrete strategies for managing symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Client-centered therapy is also central to her work, offering an accepting, empathic environment where a person's own goals and values guide the pace and direction of sessions. Motivational interviewing complements these methods by supporting readiness to change and strengthening commitment to practical steps when motivation feels uncertain.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Erica partners with clients to explore which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts techniques over time as progress and priorities evolve. This collaborative stance helps clients feel involved in shaping their care rather than following a preset formula.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or different life circumstances. These formats allow licensed professionals to provide consistent support and practical skill-building without requiring an in-person visit, which can help maintain continuity of care across changing routines.
