Counseling Services
Individual Counseling: Erin works with individuals one-on-one to determine their goals and to help them to manage or overcome the challenges they face. Focusing on your goals in a safe and comfortable environment, Erin provides both clinical and Christian counseling to aid you in building the bridges you want to help you move forward in your life. Erin has extensive experience working with children, adolescents and adults who struggle with ADHD, depression and anxiety, grief and loss and life transition difficulties.
Family Counseling: Family counseling is designed to help families join together to mutually support each other and grow together. Family counseling can also include parenting training, equipping parents to help their children manage their emotions and behaviors and successfully navigate the world around them.
Group Counseling: Group counseling provides individuals with an opportunity to meet other people who are facing similar challenges and to work through those challenges together in a safe, confidential setting with clinical support provided by Erin. The availability of group counseling services is dependent on client interest.
Consultation and Referral: Erin is dedicated to making sure that you have the best counselor and support you need. Erin will develop an individualized plan which will outline how she will help and what the next steps in building a bridge to improved health and wellbeing. In addition, prior to or after the initial meeting, Erin may recommend that you seek services from another provider who is better able to meet your specific needs. In that event, Erin will provide referrals to help you get the best possible care. Erin does not prescribe medications but she can, with your signed written consent, work with your medical provider to help you to manage a behavioral health condition needing medical treatment.
Supervision Services
In addition to counseling services, Erin is also able to provide social work supervision to social work student interns (BSW and MSW) as well as bachelor’s and master’s level clinicians seeking clinical or licensure supervision.
Social Work Supervision: With over twenty years of clinical counseling experience and holding a social work supervisor credential in the state of Ohio, Erin has worked with colleges including Southern State Community College, Indiana Wesleyan University, Ohio University, The Ohio State University, Campbellsville University and Western New Mexico State University to help social work students complete social work internships at the bachelor’s and master’s levels. Additionally, Erin provides clinical and licensure supervision for social work professionals.
