About Erin Sperico

My name is Erin Sperico, and I have been licensed in the mental health field for over 11 years. I earned my Master of Art in Licensed Professional Counseling at Liberty University. I have had the pleasure of assisting individuals with varied issues and concerns including depression, anxiety, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, personality disorders to name a few. It is important that you and I are comfortable with one another and that you feel safe with me as you may be sharing with me things of an intimate and vulnerable nature.
My approach incorporates various evidence-based practices such as mindfulness, cognitive-behavioral strategies, solution-focused and person-centered therapies among others. I also practice an offshoot of EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) called Resource Tapping to assist those that have experienced trauma. I believe it is essential to meet you where you are and accustom my clinical approach accordingly. My sincerest goal is to support you along your journey by providing a non-judgemental and respectful atmosphere as we work together toward finding your personal fulfillment.
Life will always have its ups and downs, yet I believe that your emotions and mental health don’t have to ride life’s roller coaster with the right perspective and outlook. We all have power from within…let me help you find yours again.

“Love working with Erin”

“I have been to several therapist in my life. Better Help has been very convenient and my therapist Erin has touched in on things I've never discussed or thought effected how I got to where I am. She has offered a different approach than I am use to.”

“Personable, genuine, seeks to understand and seeks to be understood in her communication. Listens actively,”

“Erin is highly caring, personable, adaptable, understanding, professional, and she knows her stuff. It literally took 10 minutes of talking to her for me to know I was in good hands. I've made more progress during my short time with her than I did during 8 months of group sessions at a local place. She can change her approach mid conversation to better suit your needs or mindset, and she's quick to call me out when she sees me perpetuating negative habits.”

“Erin has been very helpful in providing resources and helping me see issues from a new perspective.”

“She is a fantastic therapist and probably the best one I have ever had. After two sessions alone I have already started seeing improvement in myself and in my ability to cope with stress, anxiety, and depression.”

“I am so so grateful that I went with better help and even more thankful that I was paired with Erin as my therapist. She has created such a safe environment for me to where I feel no judgment, I can be open and myself without feeling like a burden.”
