Approaches and Online Care with Erin Borden

Erin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques delivered in a practical, approachable way. She emphasizes a strengths-based approach that helps clients identify and build on existing abilities and resources - this approach supports work on self-esteem, confidence, and life purpose by focusing on what already works for the client.

Erin partners with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and together they determine which techniques and pacing feel most helpful. This collaborative planning helps ensure therapy fits the individual's life and priorities.
