(she/her)
I earned my Master’s degree in Counseling and Psychology from Troy University and have been practicing as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) since 2014. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting adults through a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, trauma, chronic illness, grief, and major life transitions. After years of providing in-person therapy, I transitioned to fully virtual care in 2020. This shift allowed me to offer more accessible, flexible, and private telehealth services to adults across Florida and Vermont, meeting clients where they are—literally and emotionally. My clinical work is deeply informed by both training and lived experience. In my own life, I’ve navigated grief, significant life transitions, and having had cancer twice. While these experiences are not the focus of my work, they have shaped the way I show up as a therapist: grounded, present, and deeply respectful of the complexity of what people carry. I understand that healing is not linear, and that strength often looks like simply getting through the day. I work with adults who are experiencing emotional overwhelm, chronic stress, anxiety, depression, trauma responses, and health-related challenges. Many of my clients are high-functioning on the outside but internally feeling stuck, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves. My approach is collaborative, practical, and paced to your readiness. I draw from evidence-based modalities including CBT, mindfulness-based strategies, trauma-informed care, and person-centered therapy. Together, we focus on building insight while also developing real-world coping tools that support meaningful change. Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or push through alone. If you’re feeling overwhelmed or sensing that something needs to shift, this can be a steady place to begin rebuilding clarity, resilience, and emotional balance.
The relationship we build is the most important part of this work. In our first sessions, we take time to get to know you—what’s been going on, what feels hard right now, and what you’re hoping might feel different. We also start clarifying your goals together. There’s no pressure to have everything figured out on day one. Some people come in with clear goals, and others are just trying to get through the week. We start wherever you are. My goal early on is to create a space where you can actually exhale a little—where you don’t feel like you have to perform, explain everything perfectly, or hold it all together. Sessions are supportive, steady, and very real. Therapy can bring up hard stuff, but I stay grounded with you in it. I bring warmth, honesty, and sometimes humor when it fits—not to minimize anything, but to keep things human and connected. Some people want very practical tools right away—ways to calm anxiety, manage thoughts, or feel more in control day to day. Others need more space to talk things through and understand what they’re carrying emotionally. Most people need a mix of both. I tailor sessions to you, not a rigid formula. We move at a pace that feels manageable so the work doesn’t feel overwhelming or rushed. Over time, we start connecting patterns, building insight, and adding in tools that actually help in real life—not just in session. The goal is for you to feel more supported, more steady, and more confident navigating what you’re dealing with. Most importantly, I want you to feel seen and understood here. Therapy works best when you don’t feel alone in it—and that’s what we build from the very beginning.
My greatest strength as a therapist is blending clinical training with lived experience in a way that feels grounded, real, and compassionate. I bring an understanding of loss, uncertainty, and major life transitions that helps me sit with clients in a genuine and steady way. I am EMDR trained (Levels 1 and 2) and currently in consultation, and I integrate CBT, trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and humanistic approaches based on each client’s needs. When helpful, I also incorporate practical grounding and self-care tools—including nature-based practices like gardening—to support emotional regulation outside of sessions.
I work best with adults who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or navigating a major life transition. This often shows up as anxiety that has been building over time, periods of depression or low motivation, chronic stress, or the emotional impact of relationship changes, divorce, caregiving responsibilities, or health concerns. I’m especially a good fit for people who want a collaborative approach that is both reflective and practical. Some sessions focus more on understanding patterns, emotions, and experiences in depth, while others focus on building tools for managing anxiety, regulating emotions, and feeling more steady day to day. I also work well with people who are ready for change but don’t want therapy to feel overly clinical or distant. My style is warm, steady, and down-to-earth. We move at a pace that feels manageable, with a focus on helping you feel more clear, more supported, and more connected to yourself. Ultimately, the clients I work best with are not looking for someone to “fix” them. They’re looking for a space where they can better understand themselves, feel less alone in what they’re carrying, and begin creating real, sustainable shifts in how they move through their life.

Eclectic
I use an eclectic, integrative approach that combines Humanistic therapy, CBT, Mindfulness, EMDR, and other evidence-based techniques. By drawing from multiple therapeutic models, I can tailor sessions to the unique needs of each client, integrating the most effective strategies to support healing, resilience, and personal growth. This flexibility allows me to respond to the complexity of each individual’s experience with a personalized and holistic approach.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
With years of experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I’ve seen how effective it can be in helping clients break free from unhelpful thought patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, and emotional distress. In sessions, I help clients understand the connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, and work collaboratively to develop more balanced thinking and stronger coping strategies. Whether addressing self-esteem, emotional regulation, stress management, or trauma-related challenges, CBT provides a structured, evidence-based framework that empowers clients to actively participate in their healing and create lasting, meaningful change.
Humanistic
I use a humanistic, strength-based approach in therapy, focusing on clients’ existing resources, resilience, and capabilities rather than just their challenges. This perspective empowers clients to build confidence, reinforce their sense of agency, and discover solutions that work for them.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
I regularly incorporate mindfulness-based approaches as a powerful tool to help clients manage anxiety, depression, trauma, and emotional dysregulation. Mindfulness fosters self-awareness, emotional resilience, and the ability to respond—rather than react—to life’s challenges. In sessions, I guide clients through techniques such as breathwork, grounding exercises, body scans, and present-moment awareness, helping them reconnect with themselves and create space between thoughts and emotions. Whether used on its own or alongside CBT, solution-focused therapy, or EMDR, mindfulness provides a calm, centered foundation that supports healing, insight, and lasting change.
EMDR
EMDR is an evidence-based, trauma-focused therapy that helps clients process and make sense of distressing or overwhelming experiences in a safe and structured way. Rather than focusing only on talk therapy, EMDR supports the brain’s natural ability to heal by helping memories become less emotionally charged and more integrated over time. Through EMDR, clients can reduce trauma-related symptoms such as anxiety, intrusive thoughts, emotional reactivity, and distressing memories. The process allows individuals to gain new perspective, strengthen coping skills, and feel more grounded and in control in their daily lives. I am EMDR trained (Levels 1 and 2) and currently completing consultation. I integrate EMDR with other evidence-based approaches, including CBT, trauma-informed care, mindfulness, and humanistic therapy, to support healing, resilience, and long-term emotional well-being.

I found Erin through my General Practitioner. Erin is a good match for me because she specializes in depression and anxiety. She listens and doesn't judge. I feel comfortable sharing with her.
