Therapeutic approaches and online care

Erin commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them while learning to live with difficult thoughts or feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior, and it emphasizes practical experiments to change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Erin works collaboratively to decide which ideas to try based on a person's goals, needs, and comfort level. She will suggest strategies, check how they feel in practice, and adjust the plan as needed.

Confirm the available session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Different formats also support different needs - for example, sessions without video can lower technical demands, while scheduled video meetings allow face-to-face conversation. Erin aims to help people find a rhythm that fits everyday life and supports steady progress.
