Erica Taylor, LICSW — Therapist in Alabama

Hi there, I'm Erica!

I believe access to mental health care is important for everyone who needs it. Reaching out to a therapist can be scary and a huge, but necessary, step. I appreciate your strength getting this far! I love working alongside people in their life journey to offer support.

My focus

Are you dealing with anxiety, stress, or worry? Self-esteem concerns? Experiencing low mood or feeling unmotivated? I work with adolescents and adults managing anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, or seeking extra support. Wherever you are in your journey, I'll work with you to create a growth plan that empowers you.

My approach

I believe we are made up of various parts of well-being. When one is off, eventually all the other parts can become disrupted as well. I use this belief to work with people from a whole-person perspective. My approach is very person-centered and supportive.

My communication style

I strive to provide open and clear communication that helps clients feel supported, comfortable, and in a judgment-free space. I practice empathetic listening and will give you space to discuss and reflect on experiences and feelings. If we're working through something challenging, just know that I will be patient and understanding.

My goals for you

Treatment goals are highly personal and are used to help navigate what you would like to achieve in therapy. It is okay if these goals change or need to be re-evaluated. Therapy is a process that continues to evolve. We will work together to ensure that what you want to achieve from therapy stays at the forefront of the process.

Our first session

Our first session will consist of introductions and provide a chance for us to get to know each other. We'll gather information about you, your background, and your therapy goals. You'll have space to ask questions about therapy. Over time, we will continue getting to know each other and work together to meet your goals.
