About Erin

Erin Kemp is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and shifts that come with midlife. She works with clients on LGBT concerns, self-esteem, motivation, and confidence. Her tone is encouraging and straightforward for people who are unsure about starting therapy.

Erin approaches therapy believing each person knows their own story and strengths. She uses a client-centered way of working that builds on what already helps. She also draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking patterns. Mindfulness and dialectical skills are added when people need tools for emotional regulation and focus.

Over 15 years in the field, Erin has supported people through grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting stress, career shifts, and chronic health concerns. She also addresses ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, compassion fatigue, and complexities such as blended family or adoption-related issues.

Her style is practical and collaborative. Sessions tend to include talking through current problems, setting small goals, and practicing real skills between meetings. Erin encourages questions and works at the client’s pace while keeping goals clear.

She holds an LCSW license in Louisiana and offers services in English. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to the therapist’s availability.

How Erin’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and working from the client’s own goals. In online sessions this means Erin will mainly ask questions, reflect what she hears, and help clients shape the work around their priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice patterns of thinking and behavior that cause problems and then practice new responses; online sessions often include simple exercises and homework to use between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing strong emotions and improving relationships, with concrete tools for distress tolerance and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Erin will collaborate with each person to decide which tools and methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts the plan as progress is made and as new challenges arise.

The therapist’s biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find online therapy helps fit sessions into busy days, makes it easier to keep regular appointments, and supports steady practice of skills between meetings. Online work can allow for shorter check-ins, flexible scheduling around work or caregiving, and continued momentum when life gets hectic.
