Erika Williams-Walker, LPC

Erika Williams-Walker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 18 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma, relationship concerns, parenting stresses, and blended family issues. Erika focuses on practical support and clear communication so people can make steady changes in day-to-day life.

Her background includes a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville and a Master’s degree in Professional Counseling from Argosy University. Much of her clinical time has been with women affected by addiction, homelessness, depression, codependency, and childhood sexual and emotional trauma. She has worked in government, nonprofit, and hospital settings.

Erika’s counseling style is direct and straightforward. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. She also uses Client-Centered principles to listen and reflect what matters most to the client.

When trauma is present, she brings in Trauma-Focused Therapy approaches to address how past events continue to affect daily functioning. Sessions tend to focus on concrete skills, coping strategies, and steps that fit into a client’s routine. Erika encourages practical plans for managing cravings, mood shifts, parenting demands, or co-parenting tensions.

People who are juggling life changes, caregiving stress, blended household challenges, or recovery from substance use often find the focus is on small, achievable changes. The work is collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.
