My name is Shelly Ervin, LCSW, and I am a dedicated psychotherapist committed to empowering my clients. I focus on helping individuals build essential skills to manage daily stressors while guiding them through the processing of past upsetting events. Together, we create a safe space for growth, resilience, and healing, fostering a path toward emotional well-being. I have been working in this field since 2019 and engage frequently in training to stay up-to-date on the best treatment approaches.
In our first session, I will conduct a thorough assessment of your needs to better understand your unique challenges and goals. Based on this assessment, I will collaborate with you to develop a tailored treatment plan that addresses the specific issues we've identified, ensuring that our work together is focused and effective in meeting your individual needs.
My greatest strength lies in my ability to listen deeply to your needs and concerns, fostering a safe and supportive environment where you can explore and address those issues. This creates a foundation for open dialogue and personal growth, allowing us to work collaboratively toward your goals.
I have taken a course in CBT training. I apply this method to help individuals identify distorted thinking and reframe unhelpful thought patterns.
I have received formal training in this method. I use techniques and skills from DBT to help clients gain control of emotions and improve relationships with others.
