About Erin
Erin Kemp is an LCSW - Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Louisiana with 15 years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem and LGBT-related concerns. Erin encourages practical steps and straightforward conversations rather than jargon.
Erin begins by listening to the story a person brings. She treats the client as the expert on their own life and points out strengths the client already has. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with attention to what is causing friction in day-to-day life.
She uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy to notice and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used to build emotional regulation and tolerance for strong feelings. Mindfulness practices are introduced in simple, short exercises to help with stress and sleep.
Erin also draws on client-centered ideas to keep the work practical and respectful. Motivational interviewing shows up when people need help moving from thinking about change to actually trying small new behaviors. Together these methods support clearer choices and steadier responses.
Her background includes years working with common life challenges such as relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, trauma and career pressures. She helps people identify small changes that reduce snapping, resentment, and overwhelm. For people who want to handle anger with less guilt and more control, her approach is direct and pragmatic.
How sessions work
How Erin’s methods translate to online work
Erin uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice thought patterns and try different responses. CBT is practical for problems such as anxiety, anger, sleep issues, and low mood because it focuses on concrete steps and experiments. Dialectical behavior therapy provides teachable skills for managing intense feelings and improving emotional control; it is useful when strong frustration or reactivity gets in the way of relationships. Mindfulness therapy adds short attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve sleep quality, delivered in bite-sized exercises anyone can use.Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. Erin starts by listening to your goals and preferences, then tries approaches that make sense for your life. She checks in and adjusts methods based on what helps you actually respond differently in daily situations rather than on paper concepts alone.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a work break, avoid travel time, or use a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. Therapists and licensed professionals commonly adapt CBT and DBT exercises for remote work so clients can practice skills between meetings and bring real examples to the next session.
