About Erin

Erin Arney is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) with 10 years of experience. She practices in Kentucky and works with people who face stress, anxiety, family concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and major life changes.

Erin draws on several therapeutic approaches to guide sessions. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thinking and take steps toward meaningful action. Attachment-Based and Client-Centered methods shape conversations about relationships and how early experiences affect current patterns.

Sessions focus on practical skills and everyday coping. Erin introduces mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing strong emotions and reducing reactivity. She also discusses communication strategies and ways to set boundaries when family issues or codependency create strain.

Her work often addresses painful themes such as abandonment, guilt, shame, and loneliness. Erin helps people name those patterns and experiment with new ways of relating to themselves and others. She also supports those coping with chronic illness, aging concerns, or veteran-related issues.

Erin favors collaboration and clear goals in therapy. Early meetings are used to understand what someone hopes to change and to build a simple plan. People leave sessions with small, practical steps to practice between meetings.

How Erin uses her approaches in online sessions

Erin commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and values, then taking small steps toward a more meaningful life despite uncomfortable feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early bonds affect current interactions and trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erin treats the choice of methods as a collaborative decision. She will discuss options, try approaches, and adjust them based on what matches a person's goals and preferences.

Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled. Many people appreciate online sessions because they can fit meetings into their day more easily, reduce travel time, and use shorter check-ins when needed. Phone sessions can be simpler when video is not convenient, and video allows for fuller conversation and nonverbal cues. Discussing format early helps plan how to practice skills like mindfulness, DBT grounding, or CBT exercises between sessions.
