Background and approach
She uses clear, practical goals and tries to keep sessions focused and useful. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, attachment-based ideas, and solution-focused tools are part of how she structures work in the room. Her background includes eight years of clinical work in California and a California LPCC credential, which she brings to her online practice.
She has experience supporting people affected by foster care, adoption, caregiver stress, chronic illness, and co-occurring conditions. Erin tailors sessions to suit each person. She adapts exercises, conversation, and activities like art-based interventions when they fit the individual’s style.
Sessions move at a practical pace with steps people can try between meetings. People can expect a collaborative approach that blends problem-solving with attention to attachment and relationship patterns. Erin aims to help clients build coping skills, clearer communication, and more steady moods over time.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Erin often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments to change mood and behavior. Attachment-based work looks at relationship patterns and how early bonds affect current reactions and communication.She also uses client-centered methods, which means sessions follow the person’s goals and preferences and build on their strengths. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose techniques that match their needs, goals, and style of working.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different lifestyles. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing brief contact between meetings. These options make it easier to schedule therapy around work, school, caregiving, or other commitments.
