About Erin

Erin Smith is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Licensed Professional Counselor practicing in Kentucky. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma, grief, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem challenges, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with life changes. She focuses on building a strong therapeutic connection first.

Erin listens closely and meets each person where they are. That relationship becomes the foundation for work toward practical goals.

Background and approach

Her approach mixes clear, action-oriented techniques with a strengths-based viewpoint. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to change unhelpful patterns and build useful habits. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationships and emotional connection.

Erin encourages collaboration about what methods feel most helpful. She talks through coping skills, values-based choices, and small experiments clients can try between sessions. Progress is tracked in simple, concrete ways that make change easier to notice.

With nine years of clinical experience, she has worked across settings with people facing addiction, anger, trauma, and mood concerns. Erin aims to be supportive and present in both difficult moments and times of progress. She invites people to take the next step toward clearer goals and healthier routines.

Online support

Approaches that guide online sessions

Erin draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy alongside Gottman Method principles when working on relationships. ACT helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, clarify values, and take small committed steps toward a life that matters to them. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early connection patterns shape current reactions and helps people build more supported, trusting ways of relating. The Gottman Method provides concrete tools to improve communication and reduce destructive patterns in close relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Erin will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest techniques to try. That plan is adjusted over time based on what feels useful and what produces real change in daily life.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit busy schedules. Video sessions are good for deeper conversation and exercises that use facial cues. Phone sessions work well when internet quality or bandwidth is limited. Messaging and live chat allow brief check-ins, skill practice, or support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines.
