Background and approach
Her background includes eight years of clinical experience working across a range of settings. That experience informed her comfort with attachment concerns, adoption and foster care matters, blended family issues, and caregiver stress. She has worked with clients facing chronic illness, codependency, control struggles, and related challenges.
In session she blends client-centered listening with solution-focused planning. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques are often used to identify unhelpful thoughts and build different habits. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and the Gottman Method when relationship skills or emotional regulation are the focus.
Erin describes therapy as a collaborative process. She works with each person to set clear, achievable goals and to practice skills between sessions. The aim is steady progress that fits daily life and parenting demands.

Therapeutic approaches and online options
Erin commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a trusting space where a person’s concerns guide the work. That approach focuses on active listening, validating what matters to the client, and shaping goals together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is also used to spot unhelpful thinking and practice different behaviors that reduce symptoms over time.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Erin works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s goals and situation. She adjusts techniques as needed and checks in regularly to see what is or isn’t working.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy parents and people with limited time. Video calls let a therapist and client see facial cues and practice skills live. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth or camera use is a problem. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, coping skills practice, or shorter touchpoints between sessions.
