About Erin
Erin Weekes is a Licensed Independent Social Worker (LISW) and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in South Carolina with 12 years of professional experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, family concerns, parenting strain, relationship difficulties, and changes in life circumstances. She also supports people facing compassion fatigue, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and career or ADHD-related challenges.
Erin uses practical, talk-based methods to help people make small, useful changes. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice their values and take action toward them. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and respond to each person's concerns. She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
In sessions Erin focuses on concrete strategies people can use between meetings. This can include behavioral experiments, value-based goal setting, and skill practice for managing anxiety or anger. She speaks plainly about coping techniques so people can try them at home and at work.
Her background includes work with family-related themes such as blended family issues, adoption and foster care, family of origin problems, and communication challenges. She has experience supporting caregivers, people facing aging and geriatric concerns, and those processing abandonment or attachment issues.

How sessions work
How Erin uses ACT, client-centered work and CBT online
Erin commonly draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite uncomfortable feelings. That approach is useful for anxiety, stress, and navigating life transitions.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which means sessions focus on listening and reflecting so the person can make sense of their own concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy adds structured tools - such as tracking thoughts and testing behaviors - to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns.
Choosing which approach to use is collaborative. Erin will talk with each person about goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps. The work is practical and paced to fit the person's life and needs.
The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online work helps fit sessions around parenting, work breaks, or caregiving duties because it can reduce travel and make scheduling easier. Shorter check-ins or camera-off conversations can be arranged when they suit the client's needs.
