Hi, I’m Erin, a Registered Social Worker with 18 years of counselling experience.
After training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), I was amazed by its effectiveness and felt a relief I hadn't experienced in my previous counselling experiences. I recognized its ability to transform mental health care for those who struggle with traditional counselling methods or those who want to feel rapid results.
Having grown up in rural Alberta and working with diverse individuals in schools, the justice system, and unhoused populations, I understand the individuality of a person's experiences, current situations and needs. My focus is reducing as many barriers to service as possible by offering free consults and system navigation, flexible meeting locations and hours, and reduced rates, to meet your needs.
Accessible - Counselling should be accessible to all. That's why I offer flexible and affordable support through a variety of meeting locations and reduced, or sliding scale, rates in addition to flexible session hours. If you need session times outside of what I offer please email or call me and we can make a plan!
Flexible - To be adaptive and responsive to community and individual needs. I'm also working to reduce the stigma of mental health by partnering with businesses to promote, and connect, physical and mental health and wellness. If you or someone you know are hesitant to access counselling please contact me for a free consultation, I'm more than willing to come up with creative plans to reduce barriers or make suggestions for other services or programs based on a person's needs.
Relatable - I'm the same person in and out of a counselling session. I dress for comfort and pride myself in being relatable and authentic. I will talk about my own experiences and at times will give advice, which can be taken or left!
I understand what it’s like to face tough times and feel uncertain about what’s wrong, what to do, or where to find support. Reaching out for help can be overwhelming. That's where I come in. My counselling approach is closure-focused, helping people get out of counselling and back into their lives as fast as possible. Together, we will identify your concerns, complete an assessment, and discuss treatment goals. This process allows us to uncover life themes—such as situations, emotions, thoughts, or behaviors—that can be addressed using Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). With ART, you can resolve your concerns in just 1 to 5 sessions, without sharing anything you’re uncomfortable discussing. You won’t have to recount painful stories unless you choose to. I also provide skill-based counselling if needed. I see you as an essential part of your care; you are the expert on yourself, and I value your input. If you seek accessible, effective, and stigma-free counselling, look no further. I’m here to support you on your journey to healing!
