Hi, I'm Erika Marquez, founder of Island Pearl Counseling, PLLC. I have over 18 years of experience dedicated to mental health. I also specialize in supporting children of all ages. As a solution focused therapist, my goal is to help you reveal your true potential and lead a healthy life. We can't change difficult situations of the past, but we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges. By applying therapy approaches, we will uncover long-standing behavior patterns/negative perceptions that may be holding you back from experiencing a more fulfilling life.

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.
