About Erika
Erika Delco is a licensed social worker practicing in New York with five years of professional experience. She creates a warm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what's weighing on them and take practical steps forward.
Erika focuses on everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, and worries about relationships. She also helps people who are dealing with self-esteem challenges, career strain, and major life changes. Her approach is straightforward and centered on the person's own goals.
In sessions she listens first, then works with clients to set clear, manageable goals. Techniques are chosen to fit what each person needs, from reflecting feelings to experimenting with small behavior changes. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Erika also addresses grief, trauma and abuse, parenting questions, eating and body-image concerns, and issues related to adoption and foster care. She offers support around life purpose and women’s issues, and she is familiar with challenges common to young adults.
Her clinical methods include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy. These approaches help guide conversations and practical homework between sessions. To begin, prospective clients follow the service’s intake steps and schedule a session based on availability.
How Erika’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person’s experience. The therapist reflects feelings and follows the client's pace, which helps people feel heard and clearer about their next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and uses small experiments and practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Erika will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest which methods to try. She treats the choice of approach as collaborative and revises it based on what helps most.
