About Elysian Integrative Health and Wellness
Hi my name is Dr. Erica Strother, I'm a doctorate prepared dual board-certified nurse practitioner in Family Health and Psychiatry. With over 20 years of healthcare experience, I am dedicated to providing compassionate, patient-centered care that promotes overall health and well-being. At Elysian Integrative Health and Wellness Group, I specialize in working with adolescents, adults, and seniors who are navigating challenges such as anxiety, depression, college and graduate student mental health, hormone replacement therapy for both men and women, and a variety of other health concerns. I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard and supported. Using a combination of evidence-based medication management and talk/supportive therapy, I tailor each treatment plan to your unique needs, working collaboratively with you to help you achieve your goals and thrive. Our collaborative, empathetic approach integrates evidence-based lifestyle modifications, talk therapy, and medication management. We cultivate a supportive setting that encourages open communication and mutual respect, empowering clients to actively engage in their healing. By tailoring treatment plans to each person’s unique needs, we promote resilience and emotional well-being through a comprehensive focus on thoughts and feelings. As a healthcare provider, I strive to create a supportive and empathetic environment where clients feel understood, comfortable, and validated. My goal is for each session to offer practical tools and insights that enhance self-awareness and emotional well-being while addressing challenges such as anxiety, depression, and the unique pressures faced by college and graduate students. Through our collaborative work, clients develop greater resilience, a clearer sense of direction, and a deeper understanding of their personal strengths and goals, leaving each session feeling heard, supported, and hopeful.

How do you work with clients with anxiety?
I assist clients with anxiety by providing a comprehensive approach that combines medication management with therapeutic conversation, recognizing the unique needs of each individual. Utilizing evidence-based practices, I tailor treatment plans to effectively address symptoms and enhance overall well-being. Through telehealth services, I offer flexible and convenient options for clients to access care, ensuring support is readily available in both challenging and stable times.
How do you work with clients with depression?
I support clients with depression by combining medication management and talk therapy to create a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to each individual's needs. Using a holistic approach, I carefully evaluate and prescribe appropriate medications to address symptoms, while also engaging clients in therapeutic conversations to explore underlying issues and develop coping strategies. This dual approach helps to ensure that both the physical and emotional aspects of depression are addressed, promoting overall well-being and recovery.
How can you provide care remotely?
I offer remote care through tele-health, providing flexible and accessible appointment options for my clients. My approach involves conducting thorough evaluations to gain a comprehensive understanding of each individual's unique circumstances and health needs. Along with medication management, I integrate personalized therapy into each treatment plan, ensuring that the care I provide is tailored specifically to meet the needs of each client. In this secure and supportive virtual environment, I strive to foster a sense of connection and trust, allowing clients to engage openly in their therapeutic process. This holistic approach not only addresses mental health concerns but also promotes overall well-being, empowering individuals on their journey to better health.
How does career counseling work and how can it help?
I advocate for career counseling as an empowering resource that connects your professional aspirations with your overall well-being. Through in-depth, conversation-based sessions, we explore your unique strengths and challenges while developing practical strategies to navigate your career path. This process may include medication management when necessary to support mental health stability, ensuring that you’re equipped to handle stress and decision-making with clarity. Delivered via telehealth, these services offer accessible, personalized guidance that helps you realign your career objectives and enhance your quality of life.
How does solution focused brief therapy (SFBT) work and how can it help?
I advocate for Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) as an effective approach to facilitate positive change. By emphasizing solutions rather than problems, SFBT helps individuals envision and work towards their desired future. In my practice, which includes medication management and therapeutic conversation, this method encourages clients to leverage their strengths and resources. Utilizing telehealth, I can offer flexible access to support, allowing us to collaboratively set and achieve goals efficiently.
