About Erika
Erika is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, abbreviated BACP. She follows their professional standards when working with clients. Her practice is relational and collaborative, so she focuses on what matters to each person and how they experience their relationships and emotions.
Her style is integrative, which means she draws on different ways of working to meet each person’s needs. Attachment-based ideas shape much of her work, helping people look at early patterns and how these affect current relationships. She also uses client-centred and psychodynamic approaches to support deeper understanding.
In sessions she aims to bring unconscious patterns into awareness so people can build resilience and make changes. She does not give direct advice, but she reflects back what clients bring and suggests practical ways to cope when useful. Erika’s role is to help clients find their own answers and move forward.
Erika has three years of professional experience and has worked in an intercultural therapy centre. That role involved supporting people facing cultural or language barriers to accessing help. This background informs her respectful, culturally aware practice.

Step 3
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment‑based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. Online sessions can use this approach to help people notice interaction styles, trust issues and the ways they connect with others. Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and following what the person needs in the moment. In an online setting this often means sessions are paced around what feels most helpful and supportive for the individual. Psychodynamic therapy pays attention to unconscious patterns and past experiences; online conversations can still uncover recurring themes and give space to reflect on roots of current struggles.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels comfortable, and will adapt methods together with the client. That collaborative process helps decide whether to focus more on attachment patterns, present‑focused coping, or exploring deeper history.
Practical benefits of online therapy include being able to fit sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. It can make it easier to keep regular appointments and to access a therapist who speaks your language. Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available, and consider which arrangement will best fit your routine and day to day commitments.
