Erica Keller , LMFT, LMHC

Erica Keller is a licensed mental health professional based in Florida who brings more than a decade of clinical experience to her work with children, teens, and adults. She holds licensure as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), and she has also served as a Certified Rehabilitation Counselor and previously practiced as a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern for two years. Erica earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Central Florida and a Master of Arts in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling, with a certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy, from the University of South Florida.

Her clinical practice addresses a broad range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family challenges, parenting difficulties, grief, self-esteem struggles, stress, and ADHD. She also works with issues such as communication problems, infidelity, domestic violence, workplace stress, and young adult transitions. Erica uses an eclectic approach that emphasizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients reframe negative thinking and develop practical coping strategies, while incorporating family and relationship perspectives when appropriate.

Erica aims to create a supportive atmosphere where clients feel understood and empowered to take steps toward their goals. She generally maintains availability during standard business hours Monday through Friday, with potential delays in response over weekends.

Approaches and Online Therapy Support

Erica draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a collaborative and empathetic space where clients guide the pace and focus of sessions - this approach supports personal growth, stronger self-understanding, and can be especially helpful for relationship, self-esteem, and life-transition concerns.

She also emphasizes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a practical, skills-based method that helps identify and modify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and symptoms related to trauma or ADHD and aims to produce measurable changes in daily functioning.

Trauma-Focused Therapy is another component of Erica's work when trauma or abuse is present, offering targeted strategies to process traumatic experiences and reduce their impact on current relationships and coping. Finding the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process - Erica works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts methods accordingly so therapy fits the person rather than forcing the person to fit a model.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging provide flexibility for scheduling, reduce travel time, and make it easier to maintain continuity of care during life transitions. These options help clients access licensed professionals in ways that match their routines and comfort levels.
