Great to meet you!

I’m Erin, a licensed therapist who specializes in working with women in their 20s and 30s who want to deepen confidence in themselves and their futures. The origins of the word 'confidence' come from roots that mean, “with trust." If you're uncertain about your direction, are feeling lonely, or are moving through a difficult season like a move or a breakup, therapy can offer a space to transform confusion into understanding and restore that sense of trust in your life.

My approach to therapy

My approach is grounded in Narrative Therapy with a post-traumatic growth perspective. Together, we’ll explore the beliefs and stories that have shaped you, gently question the ones that no longer fit, and strengthen the perspectives that support your way forward.

I grew up in Philadelphia, spent a formative year living in Hanoi, and have called California home for the past seven years. Experiencing major moves and life transitions myself has helped me offer informed and support to others going through big life changes.

I also believe that creativity, connection, and community are essential to mental health. My hope is that our work helps you move toward a life that feels more fully alive.

What you can expect from me

In our first session I will focus on getting to know you and what brings you to therapy at this moment in time. I'll ask about background information along with what you're hoping to gain from therapy. I will also be very curious to hear about what has brought you to life in the past be it activities, projects, trips, relationships, or creative pursuits.
