Great to meet you!

I'm Erin Mathews, a licensed therapist offering virtual therapy to adults in Maine and Massachusetts. I earned my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Fitchburg State University. I work with adults navigating anxiety, stress, burnout, life transitions, relationship challenges, and periods of feeling stuck or uncertain. My goal is to provide a supportive and comfortable space where you can better understand yourself, work through challenges, and make meaningful changes that feel right for you. Therapy can help you understand yourself more deeply, build confidence and coping skills, and feel more grounded as you navigate both current challenges and longer-term growth.

My approach to therapy

Therapy with me is conversational, collaborative, and down-to-earth. You can expect a space where we can be honest, laugh when it feels natural, and also dig into the things that are keeping you stuck. I’ll ask questions, offer new perspectives, and help you notice patterns while giving you practical tools you can actually use outside of sessions. I draw from CBT, ACT, motivational, and strengths-based approaches, but we’ll tailor our work to what feels most helpful and meaningful to you.

What you can expect from me

Our first session is a space for you to share what’s bringing you in at your own pace. I’ll ask some questions to better understand your current experiences, history, and goals, but there’s no pressure to tell your whole story at once. We’ll begin building a sense of what you need from therapy and how I can support you. My goal is for you to leave the session feeling heard, understood, and a bit clearer about next steps.
