Hi! My name is Erin and I am a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California providing therapy to teenagers and adults. I have personal and professional experience in managing and coping with anxiety, depression, ADHD and trauma. I often incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), positive psychology, attachment theory, and additional approaches individualized to you. I enjoy learning about clients' interests, hobbies, and strengths, and occasionally incorporating them into our sessions.
In our first session we will get to know each other, discuss your concerns and identify goals for therapy. I will also review the forms you filled out prior to session and provide any relevant resources you are interested in receiving.
I have worked with all age groups and spent 5 years working with children and families in foster care, reunification, and adoption. I have experience in helping children and adults heal from trauma and cope with anxiety, depression, ADHD, and additional mental health issues. I am open to feedback, adjusting aspects of my approach to fit your needs, and offer a variety of strategies and resources.
I love working with people who want to learn more about themselves and their mental health, and are ready to make a change in their life.
I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients enhance their self-awareness and use effective strategies for cultivating healthier thought patterns, behaviors, and coping mechanisms. Through CBT, clients have effectively navigated challenges associated with anxiety, depression, trauma, and other mental health issues.
I integrate positive psychology techniques to aid clients in recognizing, building, and implementing their strengths and values in their daily life. This approach facilitates the cultivation of mindfulness-based thinking and habits, empowering individuals to flourish in life by fostering a sense of meaning, purpose, and happiness.
