I’m a therapist who believes in the power of showing up as you are.
Hi! I'm Erica Cartledge and helping people is my superpower!
Â
After having zero success with biology in college, my mother helped me realize that I'm at my best when I help others win. Â It was then that I decided to pursue a career in social work.Â
​
Therapy with me is not a buttoned up session that feels more like a job interview than a healing space. I bring my authentic self into the session guiding you along your identified path to healing.  My only ask is that you bring your full self–flaws and all!
MY APPROACH
Therapy with Willow & Ivy explained
In our work together, you lead the way. The symptoms you’re experiencing are often signals of something deeper, and we’ll use our time to explore your story and what you’ve been carrying.
Â
My therapeutic approach is strengths-based and grounded in cognitive behavioral techniques. I help clients understand how their thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected, while building practical tools to manage stress, regulate emotions, and create healthier patterns. I believe in honoring the wisdom and strengths clients bring into therapy.
No Stiff Suits Here
Therapy shouldn't feel like a board meeting. I believe in a down-to-earth, collaborative environment where you can show up exactly as you are—flaws, messy thoughts, and all.
Â
Our sessions are conversational and real, designed to help you feel seen and heard without the rigid formality.
Â
From the comfort of your own space, we'll work together to identify the patterns that keep you stuck, using reliable  techniques that actually make sense in your daily life.
Â
It’s about building a partnership that values your authentic self while providing the tools for meaningful growth.
