About Erin
Erin Kemp is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience helping people struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. She focuses on practical steps that reduce day-to-day strain and helps clients build confidence and motivation. Her style is straightforward and supportive for someone who needs a steady guide through hard moments.
Erin approaches therapy as a partnership. She listens first to understand each person's story and strengths.
Background and approach
From there she uses tools from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to shape sessions that feel useful and doable. In sessions she helps people break big problems into small steps. That can mean identifying patterns of thinking, creating routines to improve sleep, or practicing new ways to talk about parenting challenges.
She also works with people addressing grief, trauma, intimacy-related issues, and life transitions. Erin brings fifteen years of varied practice to her work in Louisiana. Her training as an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker - informs a practical approach that centers the client's goals.
She welcomes questions about how therapy might fit into a busy life. Her aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes. She supports clients as they try new habits, test different perspectives, and build coping skills that last.
Many sessions mix conversation, skill practice, and planning for steps to try between meetings.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Erin often draws from Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to shape online work. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person's goals and strengths, with the therapist following the client's lead to build trust and confidence. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and then tests simple experiments to change them.She also uses elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy when needed to teach emotion regulation and coping skills for intense feelings. That work includes practicing grounding, breathing, and step-by-step problem solving to manage strong emotions and reduce crises. Together these approaches aim to give clear tools and steady support rather than only talk.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Erin will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. She tailors methods over time so sessions match changing needs and practical life demands.
Online therapy offers flexibility that many people need. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skill teaching and deeper dialogue. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a quicker check-in fits the day. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for short updates, coaching-style feedback, or checking progress between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, parenting, and other commitments.
