So far I’ve only had two sessions with Mrs. Judkins and I’ve had a good experience with her. She seems like a person I can easily open up to about my personal issues, postpartum, etc. She is a person I feel safe with. I have no complaints.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Erika Judkin has been exceptional and changed my life. I have been working with her for almost a year and a half and I have changed into a very different person, learning how to better deal with my struggles and find strategies to live better. I am forever grateful for all her guidance.
I felt very heard and supported during our sessions.
Erika is so great at listening to me and validating my feelings. She also allows me to reach my own conclusions and revelations about things on my own, which I appreciate.
Erika has been very supportive & loving.
Erika is such a wonderful, capable therapist who has helped me to grow so much in the past couple of years. Everyone deserves a therapist who is understanding, kind, but encourages you to grow, and that's exactly what she does.
Erika is fantastic. Has been an incredible source of support, guidance and strategies during one of the most difficult periods of my life.
Super sweet, honest lady
Extremely satisfied with her professionalism and grateful for her help
Erika has helped me work through some major challenges recently. She’s also helped me find the internal strength I’ve needed to overcome issues that I’ve struggled with for years.
I’ve been working with Erika for a few weeks now and she makes me feel listened to and understood. She is very caring and sweet, I am glad to have her as my therapist.
Erika had the experience and knowledge to help me get to the root of some really important struggles pretty quickly and then I could begin to really work on these things, and I am so grateful for her expertise and our connection!
Erika is easy to talk to and makes very helpful recommendations. She listens attentively and shares her insight on different struggles I am having. I would very highly recommend her for trauma therapy. She is helping me so much.
I’ve watched myself grow through some extremely difficult phases in my life in large part because of the welcoming, non judgmental approach Erika uses in her practice. I haven’t had a panic attack in what feels like ages - and even at baseline I don’t feel the burden of anxiety like I used to. I have stronger boundaries with others and a deeper relationship with myself these days. 10/10
Erika Judkins has been a joy to works with, she’s kind and compassionate, and easy to talk to. I feel very lucky to have been paired with her.
Thank you for listening and understanding me
Erika is amazing! She is straightforward, empathetic, patient and so so validating. Finding the right therapist is going to be patient-specific, but she is a great fit for me.
Has been really helpful for me to framing a plan to improve my mental health and confidence
It's really hard to find someone that can understand you and that you can connect with. I found a really great therapist in Erika
I was in an extremely dark place when I met Erika. I hadn’t had therapy in years and so much has happened to me over the years that I just started spiraling. Erika helped me sort through my troubles piece by piece, prioritized what I needed to talk about the most, and truly listens and gives feedback. I’ve had many realizations come to light because of her, and it is definitely in my best interest. I would recommend her to anybody seeking therapy
I’ve been working with Erika only a short time, but I feel that she has helped me so much.
Erika has helped me change my life over the past year and a half. I’ve learned how to manage symptoms if PTSD and how to cope with anxiety in ways that have truly allowed me to experience my life the way I want to. I’m forever grateful to work with someone who loves what they do this much.
Erika was a lifeline for me. She helped me through a really difficult year and I learned to see my behaviors and thoughts for what they were, why I had them, and how to stop trying to control others and only control MY thoughts, feelings, and actions. She gave me tools, perspective, guidance, and more than a lot of tough love :) I'll continue to reach out to Erika when I need a reset or have other things come up in my life.
She has been so helpful and genuine. I have been more honest with her than any other therapist. She helps it feel like a safe space

She’s simply the best- and I’ve had a LOT of therapists.

After meeting with 3 or 4 other therapists over the past year but never finding the right fit, I finally found Erika. Her support, no nonsense attitude, experience, and warmth have helped me in more ways than she’ll ever know. She is a fantastic therapist!

I finally feel as though my whole life up to this point makes sense. I'm looking forward to working on the issues that we have highlighted. I highly recommend Erika.
