Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Erin commonly draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and make values-based choices even when anxiety is present. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in how people relate and can be useful for relationship and intimacy concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, supportive stance where the client directs the topics and goals.

Picking the right approach is a collaborative process. Erin will work with each person to figure out which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences and will adapt techniques as the work progresses.

The biography states that Erin offers 45-minute sessions by phone, video, or chat; confirm the current session options when you schedule. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter focused check-ins, reduce the need to travel, and let people choose whether to be on camera. Talk with her when you start so session length and format match your routine and goals.
