About Erin
Erin Eiland is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) licensed in California with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and the effects of trauma and abuse. Her practice also covers ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, self-esteem struggles, and LGBT-related issues.
Erin takes a straightforward, client-centered approach. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and build on their strengths. She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. Art-based activities are used when they suit the client's style.
Her background includes work in foster care and adoption settings, providing individual and family-focused therapy as well as crisis support at school and in homes. That experience informs how she thinks about attachment, abandonment, and blended family dynamics. She also addresses caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, and related co-morbid challenges.
In practical work she mixes solution-focused steps with longer-term attachment work when needed. Sessions may include skills practice, communication coaching, and problem-solving exercises. Erin adapts methods to the client's pace and preferences, adjusting tools like behavioral experiments or emotion regulation skills as the work progresses.
People seeking help for anger-related patterns or for recurring conflict often start by naming the situations that cause the most trouble. From there Erin helps set concrete goals and tests small changes that can make daily life less reactive and more manageable.
How sessions work
How Erin uses therapy approaches online
Erin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice and test thoughts and behaviors that feed anger or anxiety. CBT sessions often include brief experiments, worksheets, and specific behavior changes to try between meetings.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at patterns that came from early relationships. That approach helps when anger links to fear of abandonment, codependency, or problems trusting others. Client-Centered Therapy is another core part of her work; it focuses on listening, reflecting what the person says, and letting the client guide goals and pacing.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erin will collaborate with the person to pick methods that match their goals, day-to-day needs, and comfort level. That might mean starting with skills from CBT, then shifting to attachment work for longer-term relationship patterns.
Session format options are not specified here, so confirm the current online session choices before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weeknight or a lunch break, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals often use these conveniences to help therapy fit into real life without changing therapeutic goals.
