Erin Baker

Erin Baker

Therapist

Virtual • Georgia


Hey, I’m Erin. I’m a therapist who believes you don’t have to hit rock bottom to deserve support and you definitely don’t have to figure everything out on your own.

With over a decade of experience, I help people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or just ready for change get clearer, feel more grounded, and move forward with intention. My approach is direct but compassionate; I’ll hold space for you, but I’ll also gently challenge you when it matters.

Therapy with me is a mix of real conversation, practical tools, and meaningful reflection. You can expect honesty, warmth, and a space where you can be fully yourself....no filters needed.

I earned my Masters of Science in Counseling and Psychology from Troy University and my Bachelors of Arts degree in Psychology from the University of Central Florida.

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Georgia

Searching for therapists in Georgia starts with finding someone whose training fits your needs. Across the state, therapy options vary between larger cities, suburbs, and rural areas, so it helps to look closely at each therapist’s specialties and approach. If you are looking for support with anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, trauma, or life transitions, review whether a therapist lists experience with those concerns. You can also look for approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, acceptance and commitment therapy, or trauma-informed care.

Your search may look different in Atlanta, Savannah, Augusta, or other parts of Georgia. Some people prefer in-person appointments close to home or work, while others choose virtual sessions to fit care into their schedule. Beyond specialty, consider whether a therapist is accepting new clients, offers appointment times that work for you, and provides a free phone consultation. Reading therapist bios before booking can help you understand how they describe their style, what a first session may include, and whether their background matches what you want from therapy.

The cost of mental health care in Georgia varies, but using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs. Headway helps you search for Georgia therapists who are accepting new clients, verify your insurance, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before you book. Nationally, Headway works with over 100 insurance plans, and your exact coverage depends on your plan and location. You can browse therapists, compare profiles, and book directly when you are ready.
