About Erica
LMSW licensed in Michigan with six years of experience, Erica Koelzer focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue. She works directly with people to address current problems and reduce day-to-day distress. Sessions are pragmatic and conversational, aimed at helping clients build skills and clearer plans for change.
Erica shapes sessions around each person's concerns and preferences. She listens to what is happening now, then helps identify practical steps forward. Conversations may include ways to manage worry, work through loss, rebuild confidence, and develop healthier coping habits.
Her work often centers on short-term goals that fit into busy lives. That can mean focusing on one problem a session, tracking progress, and adjusting plans as needed. She uses techniques drawn from evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide interventions and measure change.
Erica emphasizes respect and sensitivity in sessions. She adapts the tone and pace so people feel understood while working toward specific improvements. She aims to make sessions straightforward and actionable rather than theoretical.
People considering therapy are encouraged to think about what they want to change and what feels most difficult now. Erica asks practical questions in early meetings to shape a plan that fits each person's daily routine and goals.

How evidence-based techniques inform online sessions
Erica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure her work. That phrase refers to methods that focus on specific skills and measurable steps to reduce symptoms. In practice that means sessions can include short behavioral experiments, activity planning, and skill rehearsals to address depression, low motivation, or anxiety.She also draws on techniques that help process grief and trauma in a careful, paced way. These approaches encourage naming the experience, tracking reactions, and practicing coping strategies during follow-up sessions. For issues like addictions and compassion fatigue, sessions often center on identifying triggers, building replacement behaviors, and developing practical routines.
Finding the best approach is collaborative. Erica will review goals, try methods, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist choose techniques together, and progress is checked regularly so treatment stays relevant to current concerns.
Confirm session formats before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for flexible check-ins around work or caregiving. Many people find this format helps them maintain consistency without major routine changes.
