About Erin
Erin Taylor is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) with two decades of experience in mental health care. She has practiced in both Arizona and Illinois and brings a mix of crisis work and outpatient therapy to her sessions. Erin focuses on practical support for everyday struggles and serious challenges alike.
Erin works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and addiction. She also helps clients dealing with parenting strains, relationship problems, self-esteem concerns, anger, and major life changes.
Background and approach
Her background includes experience in emergency rooms, psychiatric hospitals, schools, and shelters that served people impacted by domestic violence and sexual assault. Her manner is warm and direct, with empathy and a touch of humor when it fits. Erin emphasizes respect and sensitivity and values diverse backgrounds and beliefs.
Sessions are collaborative and geared toward real-world changes rather than only talking about feelings. Clinically, she uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive behavioral techniques, solution-focused work, motivational interviewing and mindfulness. She builds a plan with each person that matches their goals and daily life.
Her aim is to teach tools people can use long after sessions end. Erin’s practice blends crisis skills with steady outpatient care. That combination helps when problems feel urgent and when steady progress is needed.
She encourages people to try approaches that feel comfortable and useful for them.
How Erin’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. Sessions aim to create understanding and to help clients clarify goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical changes in behavior. It is useful for anxiety, depression and stress because it builds clear skills to test and change patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Erin will talk with each client about needs, goals and preferences and then suggest methods to try. That collaborative process makes it easier to adapt techniques so they fit daily routines and real-life challenges.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video offers a face-to-face feel for longer sessions and skill practice. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier during busy days. Live chat and messaging let people check in, do short coaching-style work, and keep momentum between longer meetings. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into work, caregiving, school and other commitments.
