Hey there! If you're riding the rollercoaster of life with ADHD, Autism, or any other neurodiverse traits, I get it. Maybe you're in the thick of life changes, or just on a journey of self-discovery. Maybe you're searching for someone to help you navigate these challenges and cheer on your wins. Well, I'm your gal. In our sessions, you lead the way with what feels most comfortable for you, whether we play games, do some art, or just have a chat (I have squishmallows and fidgets so you don't have to worry what to do with your hands). I'm here to collaborate and guide you toward embracing and celebrating your unique self.

My name is Erin Chilson, and I have my Master’s degree in counseling from the University of Missouri-Saint Louis. I have been providing mental health treatment to adults, children, couples, and groups, dealing with anxiety, depression, crisis situations, childhood disorders, autism, ADD/ADHD, relationship issues, anger management and more. My therapeutic approach is client-centered, with an emphasis on cognitive behavioral approaches. I feel that it is important to work with clients by creating a safe, positive, and trusting environment, in order for the client to be heard and to feel validated. I look forward to meeting with you.

I conduct evaluations to help people understand if their struggles are related to a psychological condition such as autism, ADHD, a learning disability, or another unique aspect of themselves.

Welcome to your new beginning! I am here to walk beside you through the healing process and to guide you towards a healthier version of yourself. I believe in the power of the therapeutic relationship. I genuinely value the importance of building rapport with clients and to support clients finding a therapist they feel is a good fit for them based on their individual treatment needs and goals. I believe in the inherent resilience of the human spirit and embrace a strength-based lens when working with individuals who have experienced trauma as well as other challenges and stressors.

I am passionate about working with individuals who are seeking to reconnect with themselves and grow their resiliency, especially if they are experiencing anxiety, depression, or trauma. I also work with children and their families to build a toolbox of healthy coping skills, self-confidence, and self-compassion to overcome anxiety, behavioral challenges, bullying, or trauma. As a companion along your journey, I am here to assist you in navigating life's challenges, embracing self-acceptance and compassion, and celebrating your growth and reconnection to yourself!

If you struggle with, depression, anxiety, frustration, or anger issues. If you find yourself a victim of your circumstances, and you want to give up please don't! Do you believe nothing can change for you? Stop that thinking, because that's a lie! Life is a journey. If you have given up today is the day you restart your journey.

However, you can become comfortable and satisfied with the journey you are on and learn skills to propel yourself forward.

Life is hard. But that doesn't mean that enjoyment and freedom are distant, idealistic concepts. Whether you are experiencing difficulties in relationships or individually, therapy can be an empowering and life-changing tool. Within my practice, I seek to understand you, first and foremost. I also approach counseling with a goal to modify current thoughts and behaviors, as well as understand why those thoughts and behaviors exist. Through this, you gain the tools and insight to create lasting change.

I have worked with many individuals, and couples over the past 34 years to help navigate the "ups and downs" of life and relationships. I work with couples who want to improve communication skills, conflict resolution, parenting, recovery from addiction or infidelity, and more. I work with individuals who want to improve self esteem, reduce negative self talk, improve work/career and love and life choices. I began my career in the substance abuse field. I find it an honor to journey with someone as they seek personal growth, healing in relationships and peace with their life choices.

Children, teens and young adults that have experienced trauma, anxiety and depression often have difficulty coping with everyday stressors.
