Approaches that guide online sessions
Erin often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking and try small behavior changes that reduce anxiety and improve mood. She pairs that with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas that encourage noticing difficult feelings without getting stuck and choosing actions that match personal values.She also brings a Client-Centered approach that emphasizes listening and letting clients guide the pace of work. Together with motivational interviewing techniques, these methods help people clarify goals and build motivation for change. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work, and Erin will collaborate with each person to determine what fits their needs and preferences.
Online sessions can include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes scheduling more flexible.
