About Erin

Erin Weekes is a licensed social worker who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.

Background and approach

With 12 years of clinical experience, she draws on a mix of evidence-informed approaches to support clients navigating trauma, compassion fatigue, parenting challenges, career stress, ADHD, and a wide range of family and personal concerns. Erin values clients' strengths and sees each person as the expert on their own story, partnering to build practical tools and clearer perspectives.

Her style emphasizes collaborative, respectful work that honors individual goals and rhythms. Erin uses cognitive behavioral techniques alongside acceptance-based strategies and client-centered principles to identify unhelpful patterns, increase psychological flexibility, and strengthen coping.

She holds LISW and LCSW credentials and practices from South Carolina, offering services in English. Erin encourages those taking the first step toward change and aims to make beginning therapy a manageable, hopeful process.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Support

Erin commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors; this approach tends to be practical and goal-oriented, useful for anxiety, stress, and anger management. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which emphasizes developing psychological flexibility by clarifying values and practicing mindful acceptance of difficult internal experiences. Client-Centered Therapy is another influence, bringing a nonjudgmental, empathetic stance that centers the client's perspective and strengths.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative work she does with clients. Together they assess needs, goals, and personal preferences and then adapt techniques so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single method. This means sessions may include skill practice, values clarification, reflective listening, or a mix tailored over time.

Online therapy with Erin is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility around schedules and logistics. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow therapists and clients to focus on practical strategies and progress from wherever the client is located in South Carolina.
