   About Erica

   Erica Brodowski is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) practicing in Indiana. She draws on Motivational Interviewing and other practical approaches to help people find motivation and make meaningful changes. Erica keeps sessions focused and respectful, and she aims to make therapy useful from the first meetings.

   She has six years of experience working in community and crisis settings. That work gave her experience helping people with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, grief, and coping with life changes. Erica also supports people dealing with compassion fatigue, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, Seasonal Affective Disorder, and self-harm issues.

   Erica uses a blend of approaches tailored to each person. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Solution-Focused techniques as needed. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer goals, and small steps toward change.

   Her style is collaborative and direct. She listens with sensitivity and helps people build confidence and coping tools. Erica makes room for each person’s values and encourages choices that match what matters most to them.

   People new to therapy are guided through a simple matching and scheduling process. She works with adults and people coming from crisis or community settings, aiming to make therapy fit into real life and everyday responsibilities.

2. How these approaches translate to online care

   Erica works with methods such as Motivational Interviewing and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in simple, practical ways. Motivational Interviewing focuses on helping people find their own reasons to change and build the will to take steps forward. It is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure about making changes. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy emphasizes noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal values, which can help with anxiety, depression, and navigating life transitions.
   
   Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Erica will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then try methods that fit. That collaborative process is meant to match technique to the problem rather than assuming one style fits everyone.
   
   The biography did not specify which online formats are offered, so confirm current session options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They can also help people keep continuity of care after a crisis or when schedules change. Talk with the therapist when you match to learn which formats she currently provides and how they can work for your routine.
