Erin Callan, LCMHC

Erin Callan is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with five years of professional counseling experience and more than 21 years working in the mental health field. Over that time, she has assisted people with a variety of mental health concerns and intellectual disorders, developing experience across both clinical and community settings.

Erin currently works with members of the LGBT+ community and with individuals navigating depression, anxiety and stress, grief and loss, trauma, relationship and couples issues, and other psychosocial challenges. Her clinical focus also includes addictions and a range of related concerns such as body image, chronic illness, isolation, and impulsivity.

Her approach centers on Cognitive Behavioral techniques that help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, paired with a person-centered style that places the client in charge of their goals and the direction of therapy. Erin prioritizes collaboration, inviting clients to shape sessions around what they need and what works best for them. She strives to provide a compassionate, supportive space where people can develop coping skills, process difficult experiences, and move toward meaningful personal goals.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Care

Erin integrates Cognitive Behavioral techniques and a person-centered approach in online therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that contribute to problems like anxiety, depression, stress, and addictive behaviors, then building practical skills to change those patterns and improve daily functioning. The person-centered approach emphasizes the client’s own goals and choices, offering empathy and support while the client guides the pace and focus of sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Erin works collaboratively with each person to explore which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting methods over time to better support progress. This collaboration helps ensure treatment feels relevant and respectful of individual circumstances.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent care from home or another convenient location, and to choose the format that best supports engagement and ongoing work toward goals.
