Erin McMains

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor with six years of clinical experience and 17 years of experience as a school counselor. My master's degree in school counseling, education specialist degree in mental health practices and National Board Certification have shaped a thoughtful, evidence-informed approach centered on each client's individual needs, strengths, and goals. I work collaboratively with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, stress, life transitions, relationship concerns, and challenges with self-esteem.

My approach to working with clients is warm, collaborative, and tailored to each client's unique needs and goals. I incorporate mindfulness exercises to help clients become more present and aware of their thoughts and emotions. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, I help clients identify unhelpful patterns, build on their strengths, and take meaningful steps towards lasting change.

During our first session together, we will discuss what brings you to therapy, identify your goals, explore any barriers, and set clear expectations for our work together. My goal is to help you feel comfortable, understood, and supported from the beginning. Whether you are seeking support for yourself or your adolescent, I am committed to providing a compassionate, collaborative space where meaningful growth can begin.
