Meet Erica
Hi, I’m Erica, a Counsellor & Psychotherapist based in Melbourne, offering dynamic therapy that blends empathy, curiosity, and evidence-based tools.
Why I Chose This Work
I came to this profession because of a deep fascination with how people grow through challenge. Early in my career, I volunteered with young adults struggling with transitions, and I watched them go from feeling stuck to discovering their strengths. Helping guide even one small insight or shift felt deeply meaningful—and that’s stayed with me ever since.
What Clients Appreciate
A genuine sense of being seen, heard and met with compassion
My ability to reflect patterns gently, helping to make sense of what’s been confusing or overwhelming
Collaborative goal-setting—and flexibility when life doesn't follow the plan
How I See Change Happen
Change often begins when something inside shifts—from self‑criticism toward curiosity or from isolation toward connection. I help create a safe space where people can pause, understand the stories they’re living, and choose new ways of relating—to themselves and to others.
A Few Short Questions & Answers
What gives you hope about the therapy process?
“I see what unfolds when people allow themselves to be curious—curiosity about their thoughts, feelings, and patterns. From that space, real self‑compassion and growth take root.”
What do you think clients are often surprised to discover about themselves?
“Many clients don’t expect to uncover a richness of resilience they didn't know they had. They realise strengths and values they just hadn’t given themselves space to see before.”
In our sessions, you can expect:
A warm, accepting space where your pace is honoured
Dialogue that feels human, not clinical – with clarity, creativity, and empathy
Tools that support real-world change: navigating relationships, managing anxiety, building self-awareness
Warmly,
Erica | Counsellor & Psyhcotherapist
Supporting you in Melbourne and online with dynamic therapy
