Getting to know Erica Allen

Hi there, I'm Erica! I am Erica Allen, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC). I earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of North Texas at Dallas. I am pleased to meet everyone seeking to take the first steps—or continued steps—on their mental health journey! I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help individuals identify how reframing their thoughts can support them through daily struggles within family, social, and employment settings. I also guide clients through past and current traumas to help release the burdens they carry. My approach In my role, I leverage my knowledge and compassionate approach to provide essential support and guidance, ensuring every individual receives the care and attention they need. My work is not just a career but a lifelong mission to foster healing and hope within the community I proudly serve. While CBT is my primary modality, I also draw from solution-focused, Person-Centered, and other therapeutic approaches to help clients identify ways to better themselves. My focus As a compassionate, unbiased, and ethical professional counselor, I am comfortable working with all clients. I have learned that regardless of a person’s faith, culture, societal norms, sexual identity, or life stance, we all deserve the same understanding and empathy we would expect from others. My communication style I create a safe space where clients feel free to say what they might think they shouldn’t say out loud. I help them understand that it’s okay to love someone in their lives while disliking certain behaviors. When clients have a session with me, they know it is the most judgment-free zone they could imagine.
