Professional statement

Erica Ashley Brumfield is a Licensed Professional Counselor and play therapist located in Brandon, MS who works with clients of all ages. She welcomes clients who are struggling to manage their emotions, whether that looks like angry outbursts, heightened anxiety, or feeling like an imposter at school or at work. Her clients face issues of low self-esteem, which can negatively impact their relationships. These experiences lead to an overwhelming daily life and even a sense of fear or loneliness. 

 

Erica’s approach to therapy depends on the needs of the client. For younger clients, she offers play therapy as a way to start conversations about feelings, emotions, and memories. For other clients, she offers Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a therapy approach that decreases the impact of damaging thought patterns, especially those that are self-critical. Clients learn how to better cope with their distress, practicing coping strategies that help them stay calm. 

 

Erica earned a Master’s degree from the University of Mississippi. She has over 15 years of experience in the mental health field, drawing from this background to provide clients with high-quality, evidence-based therapy sessions.
