About Erin
LCSW in Illinois with 20 years of experience, Erin Lee focuses on anxiety, depression, family conflict, parenting, ADHD, and grief. She also works with relationship issues, self-esteem, trauma and abuse, anger, career concerns, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, intimacy-related issues, and compassion fatigue. Erin combines problem-solving strategies with mindfulness practices to help people make small, practical changes.
Erin earned a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Illinois at Chicago and holds an additional certification in mindfulness. She uses a solution-focused style alongside dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness training. That mix guides short-term strategy work and skills-based learning in sessions.
Sessions emphasize clear goals and step-by-step tools. Erin often offers a summer fast-track option that concentrates on a single goal across six meetings in three weeks. That plan is geared toward quick relief through psychoeducation and hands-on strategies rather than long-term therapy.
Mindfulness practices and simple self-care tactics are woven into the work. Clients learn techniques they can apply between sessions to manage stress and build new habits over time.
Erin also uses a LiveChat option that some clients find convenient for communicating and practicing skills. She frames therapy as collaborative problem solving, helping people identify barriers and test small changes to see what works.

How Erin Lee uses short-term approaches and skills work online
Erin regularly incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into her work. ACT focuses on clarifying values and taking small committed steps toward what matters. It can help when someone feels stuck or uncertain about next steps. DBT emphasizes practical skills for handling strong emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be useful for intense relationship or anger-related issues.She frames therapy as a collaborative process. Together the therapist and client decide which method or mix of methods fits current goals. That choice is revisited as goals change so work stays relevant and concrete.
The biography notes a LiveChat option that some clients have used. Confirm current session options before booking to learn about the specific formats offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and support practicing skills between meetings. The emphasis is on making therapeutic strategies practical and usable in everyday life rather than on long-term exploration.
