About Erika
Erika Delco is a licensed clinical social worker practicing in New York. She holds the LCSW and the LISW-CP and brings five years of professional experience to her practice. Erika aims to make starting therapy feel manageable for people who are nervous about the first step.
She focuses on everyday concerns like stress, anxiety, and low self-esteem. Erika also helps with career challenges, relationship strain, and major life changes. Adoption and foster care matters are listed among areas she addresses when relevant.
Her approach centers on creating an open, nonjudgmental space. Patients are invited to share thoughts and feelings at their own pace. Conversations are straightforward and grounded in what matters most to the person in front of her.
Erika uses techniques drawn from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, and solution-focused therapy. That means sessions often involve listening closely, identifying unhelpful thought patterns, and trying small, practical steps between meetings. The goal is to find workable tools rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
People who prefer direct, collaborative sessions may find her style a good fit. Erika encourages questions and joint problem-solving about goals and next steps. To begin, she asks prospective clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.
How her approaches translate to online work
Erika uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in ways that suit online conversations. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting conversation where clients set the pace and topics. This approach is useful for people who need space to talk through feelings and make sense of their experiences. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and helps people test small changes in thinking and behavior; it is often helpful for anxiety, stress, and mood difficulties.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Erika works collaboratively to decide which method fits a person’s goals and preferences. She checks in about what feels useful and adjusts the plan as needed so sessions stay practical and goal-focused.
The practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy schedule and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to keep regular appointments around work or family commitments and to try short check-ins when needed.
