Sessions also address relationship strain, family of origin issues, codependency, and difficulties that come with chronic pain or chronic illness.

Her approach draws on client-centered work along with cognitive behavioral and mindfulness techniques.

Sessions are conducted in English and follow a collaborative plan tailored to each person. Prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire to begin and then schedule according to availability. Erin encourages honest conversation about needs and goals from the first meeting.

How Erin’s approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following each person's lead. It helps when someone wants a therapist to reflect their experience, validate feelings, and build goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and offers concrete skills for managing mood, anxiety, and anger. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus in stressful moments.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Erin will work with the person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust the plan as progress is made. The first few sessions are often used to find what feels most helpful and realistic for everyday life.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online settings helpful for fitting therapy into busy schedules, shortening travel time, and keeping meetings to a single-device check-in when needed. Online work can also make it easier to try short focused sessions, stepwise skill practice between meetings, and follow-up check-ins that fit around work or caregiving responsibilities.
