About Erin
Erin Ellis is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She approaches each person with respect and compassion. Erin aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through what matters most to them.
Erin uses a mix of client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and skills from dialectical behavior therapy. She adapts conversations and exercises to fit each person’s needs rather than offering a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions often include practical tools for managing mood, handling panic, and coping with difficult situations.
With five years of professional experience, Erin has supported people dealing with trauma, grief, addictive behaviors, and emotional overwhelm. She pays attention to how daily routines, relationships, and stressors affect wellbeing and helps people identify small changes that can feel manageable.
Erin also focuses on issues such as self-esteem, codependency, eating concerns, intimacy-related struggles, and compassion fatigue. She listens for the values and goals that matter to each person and uses that as the starting point for change.
Based in New York, Erin works in English and uses a collaborative approach. She encourages clients to set clear goals and to check in regularly about what is or isn’t helping, so care stays aligned with their needs.
How Erin’s approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead. The therapist reflects feelings and priorities so people feel heard and understood. This approach is useful when someone needs empathy and a steady space to sort things out.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence mood. It uses practical exercises and small experiments to change unhelpful patterns and ease symptoms like anxiety and low mood. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships through step-by-step practice.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and comfort level. That means trying things, checking in, and adjusting as needed rather than sticking to one method.
The practical benefits of online work include easier fitting of sessions into busy days and fewer barriers to attending regularly. Online sessions can make it simpler to keep appointments around work or family commitments and to use brief check-ins when a full session feels too long. Because the original biography does not list specific session formats, confirm current session options before booking so arrangements match your needs.
