Erica Crawford, LCSW, CSW

Erica Crawford is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who brings a grounded, calm presence to sessions. She has four years as an LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) and over a decade of social work experience in different settings. Erica aims to make it easier to talk about hard things and helps people feel heard and understood.

She focuses on concerns such as anxiety, depression, addictions, grief, trauma, and life changes. Erica also supports people with parenting stress, career concerns, ADHD, relationship issues, and LGBTQ matters. Her background includes work with sexual assault, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and needs related to aging and caregiving.

Erica uses practical approaches that let people try things between sessions. She often draws on Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person’s pace and Narrative Therapy to help people reframe painful stories. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are used to spot unhelpful thinking and build new habits.

Her style is warm, nonjudgmental, and down-to-earth. Sessions are aimed at helping people sort priorities, reduce distressing symptoms, and develop manageable coping steps. Erica typically communicates in English and practices in Georgia.

To begin, a person completes a brief matching questionnaire and then schedules sessions based on therapist availability. Erica notes she checks messages at least once per day and commonly offers evening and weekend times to fit busy schedules.

How Erica’s approaches translate to online therapy

Erica often blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to meet practical needs. Client-Centered Therapy is about listening closely and following what matters most to the person. It helps people feel understood and set the pace for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on how thoughts, actions, and feelings interact and uses exercises to try different ways of thinking and behaving between sessions.

Finding the right method is part of the work. Erica treats approach selection as collaborative and checks in often about what is and isn’t working. She adapts methods to the client’s goals and comfort, so plans can shift as progress is made.

Session options are not specified here, so confirm current formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, with possible advantages such as shorter check-ins when time is limited, less need to travel, and easier scheduling outside typical business hours. These practical benefits help people keep therapy consistent while managing everyday responsibilities.
