EK Portrait of Erica Keller

Erica Keller, LMFT, LMHC

Compassionate therapist for relationships and trauma

About Erica

Erica Keller is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She brings eleven years of experience and focuses on helping people manage relationship strain, trauma, parenting challenges, anxiety, depression, and life transitions.

Background and approach

Erica aims to make sessions feel calm and straightforward so parents and individuals can talk about what matters most. She trained in psychology at the University of Central Florida and earned a master’s degree in Rehabilitation and Mental Health Counseling from the University of South Florida, including a certificate in Marriage and Family Therapy.

Early in her career she worked as a registered mental health counselor intern for two years, which contributed to her practical clinical experience. Erica uses an approach grounded in client-centered care.

She emphasizes listening first, then helping people reframe negative thoughts and find workable steps forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a frequent tool in her work to address worry, low mood, and unhelpful thinking patterns.

For people coping with trauma or abuse, she incorporates trauma-focused techniques aimed at safety and gradual processing. Solution-focused methods also appear in sessions to set clear goals and track small changes over time.

The result is a mix tailored to each person’s needs and pace. Erica describes her role as a partner rather than an expert who tells people what to do.

She supports parents, young adults, and others as they build communication, manage stress, and repair relationships. Sessions are offered in English and take place within Florida practice parameters.

Approaches that guide online work

Erica commonly blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shape online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy means the therapist listens deeply and helps people explore their own goals and values, which can be useful for relationship and identity concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and practicing different behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.

She also uses Solution-Focused Therapy when clients want brief, goal-directed work. That approach zeroes in on small, practical steps and measures progress quickly, which many people find encouraging when juggling parenting or career demands.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Erica will discuss options with each person and adjust methods as goals and needs change. The plan is shaped together, and techniques are tested and revised based on what helps most.

Online sessions offer flexibility and easier access to consistent care. Video calls let you use visual cues for relationship work or deeper conversations. Phone sessions can fit into short breaks and require less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick check-ins, ongoing support, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people keep therapy steady around busy lives.
