Professional statement

Erin Connell is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, therapist, and registered yoga teacher with extensive experience in both private practice and institutional settings. She helps her clients overcome a variety of mental health challenges using a unique approach that integrates traditional and holistic methods to promote comprehensive health and well-being.

As a therapist, Erin is committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences openly. She listens with compassion, offers guidance with care, and honors each client's unique journey, supporting them as they heal and grow at their own pace. Together, Erin and her clients work toward fostering a deeper connection to themselves, empowering them to live authentically and with balance. Through therapy, Erin helps clients uncover the deeper layers of their experiences, creating meaningful, lasting change in their lives.

Erin views therapy as a journey toward self-discovery and healing that incorporates the mind, body, and spirit. She believes that therapy offers a space for individuals to reconnect with their true selves, find balance, and cultivate resilience. What Erin enjoys most about her role as a therapist is the deep connections she forms with her clients. She values being a part of their journey, helping them overcome challenges, and witnessing their growth. Whether it's creating a safe space for clients to open up or seeing the positive changes in their lives, these moments of progress and transformation are what truly fulfill her.

When she is not working with clients, Erin enjoys exploring new places, immersing herself in different cultures, and finding inspiration in nature. She can often be found practicing yoga, hiking, or simply soaking up the serenity of the outdoors. These moments of connection with the world ground her, allowing her to bring a renewed sense of presence and calm into her work.


Message to clients

I’m so glad you’re considering therapy with me! Here’s a bit about what you can expect. My goal is to create a safe, non-judgmental space where we can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. We’ll move at your pace, and I’ll listen with compassion while offering guidance and support.

I believe in a holistic approach, so you may notice that I integrate both traditional therapeutic methods and practices like mindfulness or body-based techniques. Together, we’ll find what works best for you.

Therapy is a collaborative process, and I value your input. If something isn’t working, I encourage you to share it with me. My hope is that through our work, you’ll gain new insights, build helpful skills, and feel more connected to yourself.

I’m here to support you on your journey, and I look forward to working together.

Sincerely,

Erin Connell, LCSW
