About Erin
Erin Arney is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Kentucky with ten years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, self-esteem concerns, family issues, and coping with life changes. Erin also focuses on attachment and family of origin problems, chronic illness or pain, and feelings of isolation or emptiness.
Her approach mixes several evidence-informed methods. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and take value-driven steps. Attachment-based work is used to look at how early relationships affect current connections and communication. Erin also brings Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation and Client-Centered techniques to keep conversations grounded in the client’s own goals.
Sessions are practical and paced to each person. Early meetings focus on what brought someone in and on small changes that feel doable. Erin helps people build skills for everyday challenges such as managing anxiety, improving communication, and coping with life transitions. She often breaks bigger problems into clear next steps.
She has worked in clinical and community settings over the last decade. That background informs a flexible style that balances skills practice with reflective talk. People who are weighing family tensions, dealing with guilt or shame, or adjusting to health or aging concerns may find this direct, applied approach useful.
To begin, the usual process is to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session so goals and fit can be discussed.
How sessions work
How Erin’s therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that align with their values. This can be useful for anxiety, life transitions, and decisions that feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and building new habits.Choosing an approach is collaborative. Erin works with each person to see which methods fit their goals and preferences. Early sessions focus on learning about your situation and trying small, practical steps to see what helps. Adjustments are made over time based on what is working.
