After graduating, Erin spent several years counseling adults with disabilities in Northern Virginia before deciding to pursue her studies in Clinical Psychology.

Her interest in Western and Eastern modalities of psychotherapy led her to The California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco where she earned her Doctorate Degree. Erin’s additional graduate training at The Jung Institute of San Francisco deepened her commitment to a holistic, relational, and growth-oriented approach to treating patients. Her clinical research has focused on patients’ experience of combining psychotherapy with complimentary alternative modalities such as acupuncture, chiropractic, and massage therapy.

• better understand their thoughts, feelings, and relationships with others
• facilitate connections between past experiences and present day behaviors
• cultivate self-acceptance, inner strength, agency, and ability to make healthier choices
• become increasingly comfortable with who they really are and what they really want.
