About Erin
LMHC Erin Ellis is a New York licensed mental health counselor with five years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, grief, and related issues such as ADHD, self-esteem, and codependency. She works mainly in English and practices from approaches including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
Erin helps people talk through overwhelming feelings and manage day-to-day coping. She frames sessions around what matters most to the person in front of her. Conversations lead to practical steps clients can try between sessions. Assessment and short-term strategies are part of early work together.
Her approach uses active listening and collaborative planning. CBT tools are used to identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new behaviors. DBT skills support emotion regulation and distress tolerance when feelings run high. Client-Centered Therapy informs how sessions are paced and how goals are chosen.
Erin has worked with people facing addiction and crisis, and with those rebuilding after trauma. She also has experience addressing panic attacks, self-harm concerns, eating issues, and compassion fatigue. She supports women’s issues and people exploring intimacy and self-love.
Sessions begin with a focused intake to set practical goals. Progress is reviewed regularly and plans are adjusted when needed. To start, the site process asks you to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.

How her approaches inform remote sessions
Erin uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the person’s priorities and pace. That approach means conversations are guided by the client’s concerns and goals rather than a preset agenda. CBT is used to spot and test unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, with concrete exercises to try between meetings. DBT provides emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills when reactions feel intense or overwhelming.Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work together. The therapist will review your goals, symptoms, and preferences and suggest techniques to try. That recommendation is collaborative and may change as you test strategies and track what helps.
The biography does not specify which remote session formats are offered. Confirm available formats before booking so you can plan around work, school, or caregiving. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let clients practice skills in everyday settings and bring real-life situations into discussion without promising a specific service format.
