About Erin
Erin Wilson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with ten years of experience in mental health. She draws on her own experience with therapy to connect with people in straightforward and compassionate ways. Parents reading this can expect a calm, nonjudgmental presence that focuses on real-life solutions.
Erin began her career in hospice care and later worked in substance abuse treatment. She also has experience supporting families and children and supervising other therapists before moving to telemedicine.
Background and approach
Those varied roles shaped her practical approach to emotional and behavioral challenges. In sessions Erin listens first and asks questions to understand what matters most to each person. She helps people identify inner strengths and then tries out concrete steps they can use between meetings.
Some clients get brief exercises or homework; others prefer conversation only and that choice is respected. Erin emphasizes honest work and openness to new ways of thinking. She invites feedback after sessions so adjustments can be made.
Her goal is a working relationship that helps people cope better with stress, parenting strains, relationship struggles, grief, addiction concerns, anxiety, depression, and life changes. Therapy with Erin is collaborative. She will offer perspectives when asked and support clients as they try different strategies.
The focus is on practical change and on building skills that fit each person’s life.

Approaches that fit parenting and life stress
Erin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and real-world change. One common approach involves skill-building exercises to manage anxiety and panic - clients learn breathing and grounding practices and then try them in daily life to reduce symptoms. Another approach centers on coping strategies for addiction and relapse prevention - this includes identifying triggers, planning alternatives, and building routines that support recovery.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erin collaborates with each person to figure out which techniques match their goals and preferences. She checks in about what is helpful and adapts methods over time so they feel useful for parenting, relationships, grief, or stress management.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls are useful for full sessions that feel face-to-face. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins or ongoing support between meetings. These options help clients fit therapy into busy schedules and keep progress moving forward.
