About
Erika W Scruggs LPC
Helping people live calmer, more meaningful lives has been my passion since my early teens. Today, I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Clinical Supervisor who works with adults dealing with OCD, anxiety, depression, and major life stress.
​
I primarily use Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients reduce intrusive thoughts, tolerate anxiety, withstand depression and make meaningful changes in their lives.
My clients have described me as warm, accepting and open.
Although I’m based in South Hill, VA, I provide online therapy for adults across the entire state of Virginia. If you're in Richmond, Norfolk, Charlottesville, Northern Virginia, the Eastern Shore, or anywhere else in Virginia, you can meet with me from the comfort of your home.
If you're ready for support, I’d love to hear from you and help you get started!

​Erika Scruggs LPC provides individual therapy to adults, 18 years and older. Therapy is provided virtually through a confidential, HIPAA compliant Telehealth platform.
Individual Counseling
Even when things seem fine on the outside, life can feel heavy, disconnected, or off track. Individual therapy offers a space that’s just for you, focused on sorting through what’s going on underneath and finding ways to move forward. My approach is collaborative and practical, drawing from evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support real change.
Exposure and Response Prevention
Anxiety can shrink your world. Whether it’s OCD, a specific phobia, or constant worry, you might find yourself avoiding things just to get through the day. ERP helps you break that cycle. Together, we’ll gradually face the fears that have been running the show, at a pace that feels manageable and with a focus on learning to tolerate discomfort.
Clinical Supervision
Supervision is more than just checking boxes on the way to licensure. It is a space to think deeply about your work, your growth, and the kind of clinician you are becoming. I offer supervision that is reflective, supportive, and honest. We will focus on clinical skills, case conceptualization, ethics, and shaping your unique path in this field.
