About Erin
Erin Eiland is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California with eight years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, parenting concerns, and the particular pressures that come with young adulthood. She also supports people facing trauma and abuse, ADHD, bipolar symptoms, and issues around identity and LGBT concerns.
Erin keeps sessions practical and focused. She uses client-centered and solution-focused ideas to help people set goals and try small changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) are part of her toolkit when they fit a person’s needs.
Her background includes work with adoption and foster care populations and with attachment-related concerns. She has experience helping people manage anger, codependency, and complex emotional states like emptiness or co-morbidity of conditions. That experience informs a straightforward style aimed at clarity and skills people can use in daily life.
Sessions commonly address communication problems, commitment worries, caregiver stress, and the strain of life transitions such as finishing school or starting a first job. Erin also works with body image, chronic illness or pain, and blended family issues when these affect everyday functioning.
She adapts activities to what each person prefers, sometimes using concrete CBT exercises or art-based interventions. The focus is on practical steps, learning new coping strategies, and tracking progress together.
How her approaches guide online sessions
Erin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, and practical problems like time management or study stress.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at patterns in close relationships and how early connections shape current trust and communication. That approach can help with relationship strain, abandonment concerns, and attachment issues. Erin incorporates Client-Centered Therapy ideas too, which means she aims to reflect what a person says and adjust the pace to their needs.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erin will collaborate with each person to identify goals and try methods that match those goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques as needed and checks in about what helps and what does not.
