I have had one video session and have traded many messages with Erin. Things are going really well for my first ever therapy experience!

I have only had 3 sessions so far with Erin and they have all been great. She creates a safe space for me to feel comfortable in engaging and opening up. She allows me to speak freely and provides great input/suggestions. I look forward to each session. Would highly recommend her!
