About Erin
She uses practical strategies alongside reflective conversation. That means offering gentle challenge when patterns hold someone back, and grounding skills for overwhelming moments. Erin draws on approaches like attachment-focused work, cognitive behavioral tools, and mindfulness to help people notice and change unhelpful habits.
Clients can expect clear goals and step-by-step ideas they can try between sessions. Therapy may include talking through past wounds, practicing new ways to respond, and building skills for day-to-day stress and anger. Erin frames progress as small, steady changes rather than sudden fixes.
Her background includes two decades of clinical practice across several states. Erin aims to make sessions approachable and calm, so people can focus on what matters to them. She emphasizes collaboration and respects each person’s pace of change.
Erin works in Washington and communicates in English. She accepts international clients. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details with the service.

How Erin’s approaches translate to online therapy
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current trust and connection. Online work can use talking and reflective exercises to notice attachment patterns and practice new ways of relating to others.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In sessions, Erin can guide practical experiments, thought records, and behavior changes that people can try between meetings to reduce anxiety, anger, and low mood.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Erin collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and comfort level. She will check in and adjust tools over time so the work fits the client’s needs and preferences.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and offer shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it possible to continue consistent care during life changes. Licensed professionals can adapt activities such as EMDR-informed processing, mindfulness practice, and attachment-focused conversation to remote sessions when appropriate.
