Erin is an intern counsellor who has completed her practicum and is in the final stages of her Master of Counselling degree at Adler University. Originally from the Yukon, where she developed a deep love for the outdoors, Erin moved to British Columbia to pursue her graduate studies and deepen her work in the helping professions. Her background as a certified Sexual Health Educator continues to shape her warm, collaborative, and compassionate approach to counselling.
Erin works with children, teens, youth, and adults, offering both in-person and virtual counselling for individuals and couples. Her areas of focus include anxiety and stress, relationship challenges, life transitions, trauma, and grief. She also brings additional knowledge and experience in supporting clients with topics related to sexual health and wellness, including sexuality, sexual trauma, self-esteem, body image, and intimacy. When working with children and youth, Erin creates space for emotional expression and growth, while collaborating with families to build understanding and connection.
Erin’s counselling approach is rooted in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), bringing warmth, empathy, and emotional depth to her work with both individuals and couples. While EFT is the foundation of her practice, she also draws on a range of evidence-based approaches—including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Internal Family Systems (IFS)—to support each person’s unique process. Erin understands that therapy is a personal and evolving journey, and she adapts her work to meet people where they are.
Erin understands that being human involves navigating struggle and uncertainty. She offers a steady, compassionate presence for those looking to better understand themselves, their relationships, and the patterns that influence their lives. Attachment science also informs her approach, which offers insight into how early relationships shape our emotional lives and influence how we connect with ourselves and others. Through this lens, Erin helps clients explore the patterns and relational experiences that may contribute to distress, and supports them in building more secure, connected, and fulfilling relationships—internally and externally.
Erin‘s practice is focused on creating a safe and supportive environment where clients feel understood, respected, and free to explore their experiences at their own pace. Sessions are conversational and collaborative, guided by curiosity and care. Whether navigating a life transition, relationship difficulties, or seeking to understand themselves better, Erin offers a steady, thoughtful space to reflect, make sense of their experiences, and work toward meaningful change.
