Beginning counselling can feel like a significant and meaningful step. I offer a safe, supportive space where we can explore your present experiences alongside past events that may still be shaping how you feel and relate to others. Together, we gently work through what may have been held inside—sometimes outside of awareness, yet still affecting your emotional and physical wellbeing. My aim is to support you in gaining clarity, understanding, and a deeper sense of connection within yourself. I tailor my approach to your individual needs, drawing on ongoing professional training to support you in developing ways to navigate moments

Hi! I'm Erin. Thanks so much for taking the time to read my profile. I always wanted to be a psychologist since I was 12 years old. I even remember the exact spot I was standing when I told my friend that I wasn't sure I would do it because the amount of education required took too long! My hesitation did not last long after I took International Baccalaureate level Psychology in High School and fell in love. Then there was no turning back and after a BA in Psychology, an MSc in Child Development, I completed my doctoral degree and became a psychologist.
