About Erica

Erica Ortiz-Pellicer is a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with five years of clinical experience. She offers therapy in English and Spanish and focuses on stress, anxiety, parenting concerns, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Erica also pays attention to blended family issues and adoption or foster care-related challenges.

She uses straightforward conversation to identify what is most pressing. Sessions usually involve talking through recent events, patterns that keep showing up, and practical steps to try between meetings. Erica aims to make concepts easy to use in day-to-day life rather than filling sessions with jargon.

Erica has worked across a wide age range and brings that background to sessions in Florida. She explains ideas simply and checks in to make sure a suggestion fits the client’s routines and responsibilities. Language can switch to Spanish when that better serves the client.

Her work looks at how past family dynamics can affect current choices and relationships. That includes issues tied to family of origin, control struggles, and the particular pressures of blending households. She helps people name what matters and consider small changes that change interaction patterns.

Practical problem-solving is a common thread in her approach. Conversations often include steps to test between sessions and reflections on what worked or didn’t. If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the practice’s online flow.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Erica uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical problem solving and coping skills. One common approach is skills-based work that teaches specific ways to reduce anxiety and handle stress, such as breathing or activity planning that can be practiced between sessions. Another common strand is exploring family patterns and how early relationships affect current choices, which helps people understand recurring conflicts and try new responses.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erica will talk with the client about goals, daily routines, and what has or hasn’t helped before. From there she and the client decide which techniques to try and adjust them as needed based on what fits the person’s life and priorities.

The original biography does not list which online session formats are offered, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals can use different formats to match a client’s needs, and Erica will help identify the best approach during the initial scheduling and questionnaire process.
