About Erin

Hi, I’m Erin.

I'm a licensed therapist, writer, speaker, clinical supervisor, mom and hobby gardener based in Raleigh, North Carolina. I help women navigate identity, relationships, trauma, parenthood, and life's transitions with greater understanding, self-compassion, and self-trust.

I believe meaningful change begins with understanding—not only ourselves, but the relationships, experiences, and systems that have shaped us.

My work is rooted in attachment theory, feminist psychology, and trauma-informed care. I believe that our symptoms make sense when we understand the relationships we've experienced, the messages we've internalized, and the broader systems that shape our lives. Therapy isn't about becoming someone different—it's about understanding yourself more deeply so you can move through life with greater clarity, confidence, and connection.

Clients often describe me as warm, down-to-earth, and thoughtful, while also appreciating my ability to gently challenge patterns that no longer serve them. My hope is to create a space where you feel deeply understood, while also helping you move toward meaningful and lasting change.

My Approach

No two people are the same, so therapy shouldn't be either.

I integrate EMDR, parts work, attachment theory, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), the Gottman Method, and nervous system-informed approaches within a feminist, neurodiversity-affirming framework. Together, we'll make sense of your experiences, strengthen your inner and relational resources, and cultivate healthier relationships—with yourself and with others.

Training & Experience

I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Psychology from Loyola University Maryland and am licensed in both North Carolina (LCMHC) and Maryland (LCPC), where I also serve as a board-approved LGPC supervisor.

Over the past 15+ years, I've worked across inpatient, outpatient, and private practice settings, with a particular focus on perinatal mental health, relationships, trauma, and neurodivergence. I hold a Certification in Perinatal Mental Health (PMH-C) through Postpartum Support International and regularly provide consultation, supervision, and education to other mental health professionals.

My Values

I believe therapy begins with safety.

Everyone deserves a space where they feel respected, understood, and free to bring their whole selves into the room. I strive to create an affirming, inclusive, and trauma-informed practice grounded in feminist psychology, anti-racist and neurodiversity-affirming care, and a commitment to ongoing learning, humility, and accountability.

Beyond the Therapy Room

Outside of work, you'll usually find me tending my garden, exploring antique and thrift shops, listening to audiobooks, or immersed in whatever creative project has captured my attention. I live in Raleigh with my husband, our two sons, and our pets.

You can also find me writing, speaking, and sharing educational resources through The Feminist Mom Podcast, Instagram, and professional trainings.
