Erin Nibley
My practice focuses on creating a safe place for you to begin or continue your process of healing. I have had several years of experience working with people who have issues with mental illness, substance abuse, and complex trauma. I use an eclectic approach that is client centered, and enjoy using EMDR, Gestalt, and existential modalities.
I will provide a compassionate, validating and honest approach to addressing what is holding you back from experiencing peace in your life, and look forward to discovering how we can work together to find it.

First session
Our first session together will be one where I learn and understand what your struggles and concerns currently are. My biggest concern is that you feel safe so we can proceed to work together effectively.

Ideal clients
I feel that people who are able to achieve the most from therapy are ones who are willing to be curious about why they think and feel the way they think and feel. People who are willing to move forward, no matter the pace, regardless of fear and/or perceived hardness. I also feel that willingness to become vulnerable, even in the face of tremendous fear - is the ideal mindset for therapy.
Ongoing work together
Together we will identify your goals and steps needed to start moving in that direction.
Treatment methods
Person-centered (Rogerian)
I would call this method "client centered" because studies, and my experience, has shown that most clients are not able to feel helped, in therapy, if they don't feel alliance with their therapist. In a world where many people are struggling with loneliness and disconnection- my priority is for you to feeling connected and hopefully, less lonely.
