Background and approach
Erin combines practical skill-building with attention to each person’s strengths and life situation to craft an individualized plan for change. Erin’s practice emphasizes collaboration and respect for a client’s values and goals.
They draw from evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) alongside client-centered techniques to address patterns like impulsivity, attachment difficulties, communication problems, panic attacks, and mood instability. Sessions focus on helping people develop coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and clarify life purpose when facing transitions or ongoing struggles.
Erin brings an approachable, nonjudgmental stance to therapy and works to create a supportive environment where practical strategies and personal insight come together. They welcome adults who are seeking structured tools and reflective space to manage symptoms, repair functioning, and pursue meaningful change.
How Erin’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Erin integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) into online work in ways that emphasize concrete skills and emotional regulation. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, panic, and stress. DBT offers structure for learning distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially helpful for managing intense emotions and impulsivity.Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Erin will discuss goals, preferences, and the specific challenges a client brings, then recommend or combine therapeutic techniques to match those needs. This collaborative planning helps ensure sessions feel relevant and practical from the outset.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and communication styles. These options allow clients to access consistent care from wherever they are in Oregon and to practice skills between sessions using the modality that fits best with daily life.
