About Ericka

Ericka Dorlean-Febles is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 13 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, anger, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, addictions, and life transitions. She also addresses issues like self-esteem, career stress, compassion fatigue, and bipolar mood concerns.

Clients can expect straightforward, practical conversations. Sessions focus on clear steps to manage strong feelings, improve communication, and reduce daily overwhelm. Ericka uses direct listening and goal-focused work to help people notice patterns and change unhelpful habits.

Her background includes long-term clinical practice in community and clinical settings in Florida. That experience informs work with blended family issues, codependency, control problems, and disputes that arise during divorce or separation. She also supports people dealing with domestic violence aftermath and fatherhood issues when those topics come up in individual work.

Ericka draws on Client-Centered Therapy for empathetic listening and on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy help people set realistic, short-term goals and keep momentum between sessions.

People looking for help with anger will find practical tools here - how to notice triggers, pause before reacting, and repair relationships afterward. The approach is matter-of-fact and goal-oriented. To begin, readers should confirm session details and scheduling steps before booking.

How sessions work

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflection. Online sessions using this approach tend to center on the person’s concerns and priorities, with the therapist mirroring what they hear to clarify feelings and goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) emphasizes identifying thought patterns and testing new behaviors. In an online setting this often means setting small experiments between sessions and reviewing what worked.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to match methods to current goals, whether that means reducing angry reactions, improving communication, or managing stress. This is a shared process and adjustments are made as needs change.

The practical benefits of online work include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Confirm the exact session formats offered before booking, since the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make regular check-ins simpler, allow shorter focused sessions when needed, and remove travel time so people can keep momentum between appointments.
