I am a national certified counselor (NBCC) and a licensed mental health counselor in the state of New York. I have been working in the field of mental health counseling for eight years, helping people from different backgrounds as they struggle with anxiety, depression, grief after losses, couples issues and stress and trauma-related disorders. I consider it a privilege to work supporting people as they face life's challenges, providing emotional support, and working collaboratively to learn positive ways to cope and to find appropriate solutions. This means that I do not presume to have all the answers but I can work with you to help you find them. Nor I see my role as a counselor as someone who has to give you advice in every session. Instead, I respect and acknowledge my clients as people with strengths, experiences and emotional and intellectual intelligences who have the capacity to find solutions with the appropriate support and collaboration. Together we will explore your current situation, identify specific issues you want to work on, set goals and explore solutions.

I'm a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC), a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC), and National Certified Counselor (NCC) with about 13 years of experience in the counseling field. I graduated in 2010 from New York University with my MA in Counseling for Mental Health and Wellness, and in 2008 from New York University with my BA in Psychology. I have experience treating children, adolescents, adults, and families. I have treated individuals with anxiety, depression, addiction, personality disorders, bipolar disorder, trauma, and adjustment to changes. I have also provided healthcare counseling around chronic/debilitating illness and end-of-life planning. I am comfortable and experienced with providing therapy to a diverse population. My style is more eclectic when approaching therapy since it's important for me to tailor therapy to an individual's needs. I've been trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI). My goal is to foster a therapeutic relationship where a person feels safe, not judged, and understood. My style is warm and I will take my time to understand what's going on for you, then work with you collaboratively to figure out how to address your issues. I am here to help support you through your challenges, so please feel free to reach out and we can start this journey together.

Hi and welcome to Better Help! My name is Erin Wirth and I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in the state of New York with over ten years of experience in the mental health field and five years as a therapist. I enjoy working with adults, teens and children and my specialties include working with those individuals with developmental disabilities, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship stressors, life transitions, eating disorders and addiction. It is my belief that the therapeutic relationship can only truly flourish when rooted in unconditional positive regard and acceptance. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is a safe space for clients to relearn the concept of vulnerability as a strength and that true intimacy, acceptance and connection can only come from a place where we allow ourselves to be seen as fully and imperfectly human. I am a firm believer in utilizing therapy as a source of empowerment and strength, and encourage clients to not allow their problems and/or diagnoses to define them. I believe that we are meant to experience the full spectrum of human emotions (not just the shiny, happy ones!) and when we allow ourselves to accept and hold space for these so-called "negative" emotions, it takes away their power. We can choose to view pain as a source of suffering or as a transformative experience. Utilizing the various therapeutic modalities of Cognitive-Behavioral therapy, Dialectical-Behavioral therapy, Motivational Interviewing and Person-Centered therapy in conjunction with mindfulness-based practices such as radical self-acceptance, non-judgment and gratitude, I believe that we're able to move past those emotions that keep us "stuck." I look forward to supporting and guiding you on your journey towards growth and self-acceptance. I am available for chat, email, and phone/video sessions.

I strongly believe in and cheer for the success of the clients I work with.
