About Erin
Erin George is an Ohio LISW (Licensed Independent Social Worker) with 15 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and identity concerns including LGBT and gender dysphoria. Erin also addresses intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, parenting strains, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar mood concerns, and coping with life changes.
Erin believes people can change and notices small shifts make a difference. She guides conversations that help clients name what is happening and try new ways of responding. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer understanding rather than jargon or abstract theory.
In practice she often helps people untangle family of origin issues, blended family stress, communication problems, codependency, and control or abandonment fears. She also works with substance use problems and domestic violence histories, and addresses co-morbid concerns when they overlap.
Her approach is straightforward. Erin listens to what matters most and suggests manageable strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. She discusses forgiveness and body image where those issues are present, and supports people sorting through divorce, separation, or complicated grief.
Erin’s social work background informs her focus on real-life problems and supports people in building routines that fit their situations. She asks questions that clarify goals, tracks progress, and adjusts plans as needs change. People meet practical ideas alongside a steady, experienced clinician.
How her approaches translate to online work
Erin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and clearer understanding. One common method is skills-based work that teaches concrete strategies for regulating emotions, managing anxiety, and coping with urges linked to addiction. This approach breaks problems into small steps and practices new responses in daily life.Another frequently used method involves processing trauma and its effects by gently naming patterns and building safety around triggers. This helps people see how past events affect current behavior and develop alternatives that reduce reactivity. Both approaches are focused on specific problems such as relationship conflict, grief, sleep disruption, and shame-related beliefs.
Finding the right approach is part of the first sessions. Erin will discuss options with the client, consider their goals and preferences, and jointly decide what to try first. The plan can be adjusted over time if needs change.
Confirm current online session formats before booking to know exactly how sessions are arranged. Online work can make scheduling easier, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people keep continuity of care when life changes make in-person visits harder, while the therapist and client focus on practical steps that fit everyday routines.
