Waitlist for new clients
Family systems are considered.
My practice is currently waitlisted. My name is Erin. If you are reading this you likely want something different for your life. Whatever your story is, counseling can support you in the process of discovering how to be in the world in new ways. You may be in a life transition, experiencing overwhelm, having relationship issues, or grieving. The list goes on. Together, we will explore your story, revealing its limitations. We will work to gain insight into why you feel the way you do and to dismantle unhelpful beliefs and coping strategies. The outcome: possibilities for living differently.

I gravitate towards a relational/ family systems model, but use many other modalities, such as CBT, motivational interviewing, etc.
Most of us have difficulties being able to live the life we would like to live. Sometimes it can be hard to see what within us is getting in the way of achieving our goals. We do not exist in a vacuum, other people play a part in why we are who we are, and it takes people to help us create lasting change. My focus is to meet you where you are and help you grow right there, to clear away what is confusing and stifling, and to help you be wholly yourself. I also specialize in ADHD skills building and Career Counseling.

Family systems, Psychodynamic, Feminist, 12 step, Non-Diet and Cognitive Behavioral.
As a systems oriented psychotherapist,
I believe that we are connected to and affected by those around us. Our families of origin,
communities,cultures,workplaces and families of choice impact our lives and sense of self.
Relationships and experiences we have had in the past influence who we are and how we relate to the world. To live with the greatest joy and productivity we must heal past relational traumas and bring to consciousness effects they have had in our lives. By doing so, we are free to make thoughtful choices about how we live our lives and relate to others.

My approach to counseling is to start with a strengths-based family systems model, acknowledging the many pieces of the puzzle that influence our daily lives.
I believe it is an immense privilege to be welcomed into a person’s life through the means of counseling. I respect that each person is the expert of their life and experiences and therefore I approach the therapeutic relationship as a collaborative process. My goal is to create a safe space, free of judgement, to come along side my clients-individuals, youth, young adults, couples and families- as they work towards their desired outcomes. I have special interest and experience in working with the adoption and foster care triad, family and couple counseling, and pre-marital counseling.

I utilize several therapy techniques to address individual needs and they can include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Family Systems Theory, Interpersonal Theory, Self-Determination Theory, and Solution-Focused Theory.
There are four clinicians in this group practice. My personal approach has been described as more practical and holistic as I believe we do our best given the circumstances. I believe we are our own experts but we sometimes need some extra support to get through difficult times or unstick ourselves emotionally. For me, therapy is a collaborative process that unfolds via conversation. I go where you go and ask lots of questions along the way. My areas of interest include anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, life transitions, pain management, brain functioning, trauma, and other life experiences.

As a marriage and family therapist, my focus is on how relationships in your life can support the healing process. With a strong understanding of attachment and family systems theories, I support individuals, couples and families in finding more safety and connection in their relationships. This relational approach can help clients find lasting change for myriad problems, such as pervasive anxiety or depression, chronic conflict and discord, or even suffering from traumatic events. Clients develop a new sense of how to communicate, how to access emotions for deeper connection, how to establish emotional boundaries, and how to maintain new, strengths-based narratives about their lives.

I specialize in clients seeking healing from narcissistic family systems, middle-age-related wellbeing, existential and spiritual crises/inquiry, shame, complex trauma, grief, general anxiety, and depression.
Currently accepting individuals for telehealth. My approach to therapy is wholehearted and views clients contextually, recognizing people as interconnected with and influenced by everything from biology and belief to society and the natural environment. I use a bio-psycho-social-spiritual lens to understand my clients holistically. Rather than highlighting what is wrong, I seek to understand what needs may not be met and collaborate with clients on meeting those needs. This curious approach sparks inspiration, creativity, and openness and encourages a client’s deep and vast wisdom to shape the therapy process.

Treatment elements include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS)/parts work, Motivational Interviewing, Narrative Therapy, and Positive Psychology.
I believe that everyone deserves to live a life that leaves them excited to wake up every morning to pursue their dreams. Each of us possess the capacity to change and grow to reach our goals. We can become untethered from behaviors, thoughts, emotions, and personal narratives that no longer serve us, and we can enjoy that process along the way. Simply put, I don’t believe that therapy has to be a painful thing, but something we approach in partnership with curiosity and nonjudgement.

I draw from Family Systems theory and implement Developmental Psychology in my practice.
Own your story. I specialize in working with women who have experienced trauma, grief, difficult life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem and are ready to take charge of their life narrative. Trust, authenticity, and vulnerability are vital components of the therapeutic process and I work hard to establish and maintain those values with clients. My heart for my clients is that they would feel the safety of being themselves while also being invited into growth and restoration of relationships.

Please know that if you send an email to a therapist, check your spam for response.

I believe our capacity to connect, both with ourselves and with those we love is vital to our happiness. When we are in a state of disconnection, we can feel anxious, isolated, empty, and depressed. I get this, and feel its my job to provide a safe place where you can trust, feel respected and cared for, in the process of therapy. I understand its difficult to feel worried, discouraged, and overwhelmed by everyday challenges. We all have suffered in silence, waiting for things to get better, because seeking help may seem too scary....I want to help.

I work with adolescents and adults. I focus on helping people change unhappy patterns in their lives and find relief from suffering. I primarily utilize a psychodynamic approach which means helping clients gain insight into the dynamics of maladaptive patterns that have evolved in their lives. Gaining insight is often the first step, or the foundation, of positive change. I also do EMDR and parts work to facilitate recovery from trauma.

College and your 20’s can be exciting but stressful, especially if perfectionism runs the show. People see you as focused and driven, but inside you feel more scattered and anxious than they realize. School, work, relationships, finding time for yourself — you’re overwhelmed because it feels like "too much," but you're also worried your efforts are "not enough". You regularly say "Yes" when you want to say, "No, I can't handle one more thing!" It's even more exhausting when you’re trying to manage anxiety, ADHD, or trauma on top of everything else. You just want to feel balanced, confident, at ease... maybe even kinder to yourself.

Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
