Getting to know Erica Spragans

Hi there, I'm Erica! I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in Virginia with 8 years of experience as a therapist. I hold a Master’s in Counseling from South University and a Bachelor’s degree from Virginia Commonwealth University. I have helped clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, and confidence. My approach I utilize multiple theoretical approaches, including cognitive behavioral, client-centered, and solution-focused therapy. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes courage, and I am proud of you for getting started! My focus I have worked with males and females of different ages and ethnicities. Most recently, I have focused on adolescents and young adults. I have supported clients dealing with depression and anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, motivation, self-esteem, grief, and confidence. My communication style I strive to create an environment where clients feel safe and secure expressing any thoughts or feelings. I use active listening to help clients feel heard and understood. My empathetic approach focuses on understanding clients’ perspectives and emotions without judgment, building rapport and trust. My journey to mental healthcare I grew up in a two-parent, middle-class household with parents who were loving, nurturing, and supportive. Early on, I felt driven to help youth who had traumatic, unsafe, stressful, or difficult upbringings. I began volunteering with youth in high school and continued community-based work, which led me to a career in mental health. After years of experience, becoming a licensed therapist felt like the natural next step.
