LCSW, 10 years of experience
What's been happening? My name is Erin, I am a licensed clinical social worker currently based in North Carolina. I received my Masters from Fordham University in New York, where I grew up. I have been working in the field for several years and have experience in different settings and practices. I have recently started the journey of working for myself and provide therapy and life coaching.
In our first session, we will go through background information, goals, and what brought you in. We will go over any questions or concerns at that time and I will go over my therapy style and what to expect for our time together.
I love being able to encourage and support my clients. I will do my best to guide them to succeed towards the goals they have set for themselves. I will challenge my clients and help them believe in themselves.
I love working with those who are ready to make change. Making change is hard at any point in your life, and I want to be there to help support you. I want to help those who are looking for an outlet to process and begin learning tools and more about themselves.
Clients can expect a collaborative and goal-oriented approach focused on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors. There will be help developing practical strategies to modify these patterns, fostering positive changes in their emotions and behaviors over time. The sessions often involve structured discussions, problem-solving exercises, and homework assignments to promote ongoing self-reflection and skill development.
Clients can expect empathetic listening, open-ended questions, and reflective techniques to enhance the client's intrinsic motivation and commitment to making positive changes. Together, they collaboratively set goals and develop strategies to overcome barriers, fostering a client-driven approach to behavior change.
Clients can expect exploring and amplifying the client's abilities, talents, and positive attributes to foster resilience and facilitate personal growth.
