About Erica

Erica Holtz, M.A., LMFT, is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and clinical supervisor based in Pennsylvania. She holds a Master of Arts degree and completed specialized training in child sexual abuse treatment at Widener University. As an AAMFT Approved Supervisor, Erica completed an extensive supervisory training program through the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy to support therapists pursuing licensure. She graduated from La Salle University in 2007 following a yearlong internship at a family therapy agency in Philadelphia, and she continues to assist in training other therapists and interns.

Her clinical work is rooted in Systems Theory, which guides her couples and family therapy practice by attending to the relationships and patterns that connect people. Systems work looks beyond individual symptoms to the ways family history and ongoing interactions sustain problems, and it often involves including all parties affected by an issue whether they are present in sessions or not. Erica also applies systemic principles in individual therapy and has seen strong progress with that approach.

Erica helps individuals, couples, and families who feel stuck, overwhelmed by painful emotions, or frustrated by recurring relationship difficulties. She specializes in couples therapy, working with diverse family structures, and supporting people with trauma histories. Erica also has experience helping families that include a member with autism. Her style is adaptable and empathetic, and she often uses authenticity and measured humor to build a genuine therapeutic connection. Having been a therapy client herself, she understands how it feels to enter treatment feeling anxious, unsure, and vulnerable. Erica looks forward to supporting clients as they pursue lasting change and growth.

Approaches for Online Relationship and Family Work

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early bonding and ongoing attachment needs shape current relationships. It helps people and couples understand patterns of closeness and distance, improving trust and emotional connection when attachment wounds are present.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's own experience, offering a nonjudgmental space where therapists reflect and support clients as they explore their values, choices, and emotional responses. This approach is useful for building self-esteem, clarifying goals, and navigating life transitions.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps couples and individuals identify and shift negative interaction cycles by bringing core emotions into view and reorganizing responses to create more secure bonds. EFT can be especially helpful for repairing intimacy-related issues and strengthening emotional responsiveness.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Erica collaborates with each person to determine what fits best. Together the therapist and client consider needs, goals, and personal preferences, adjusting methods as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to engage in this work through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, stay connected across distances, and continue care when in-person visits are difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt the chosen approach to these formats so clients can get consistent, accessible support that aligns with their life circumstances.
