“Beth, I don’t know where to start.  You have helped me in ways you can’t even imagine.  I think the fact that you are so intuitive is a great skill you bring to therapy.  Not every therapist can tune in like you, I want you to know that our sessions not only heal me beyond what I ever expected, but blow me away. I did not expect to come in the other day and hear from my brother who died so many years ago.  The message you gave from him was spot on (even his personality was right on!).  Thank you, thank you.  Also, the fact that you are both so grounded-  but also that you bring EFT, energy work, and spiritual counseling- to our sessions has created huge breakthroughs for me.  I’m actually living the life we create in my Life Vision.   I would never want to go to a “regular” counselor after all of the special ways you have helped me.”

“My son was struggling before he started coming to Erin. He really responded her to after his first session and we felt a huge relief. He even looked lighter after speaking with her! We are so grateful to have been paired with her.”

“I had a wonderful and transformative experience during my time with Erin as my therapist.  Erin is extremely warm and kind.  She makes talking through hard things easy.  I felt comfortable with Erin the moment I met her.  She has a great way of truly validating my emotions and thoughts and would frequently circle back and help me realize things I did not before.  I highly recommend Erin as she helped me find my voice, become confident, and work through my feelings.  I also loved that she helped me create a vision statement and by the end of my time in therapy, everything in my vision statement came true because of her guidance.”
