About Erin
Erin Eiland is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in California who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, and codependency. She also supports people dealing with parenting concerns, ADHD, bipolar mood issues, and the strain that comes with caregiving and chronic illness. Her tone is practical and direct, aimed at people who want clear steps and steady support.
Erin uses a client-centered approach that centers the person's own goals and strengths. Sessions are shaped around what matters to each person, with room for skill practice and real-life problem solving. She commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and brings in art-based activities when that helps someone express or process difficult feelings.
Her work draws on eight years of experience in clinical settings, including supporting children, teens, and families involved with foster care and adoption. That background informs how she thinks about attachment, abandonment, blended family issues, and related concerns. She adapts methods depending on age, developmental needs, and personal preference.
Erin emphasizes practical tools you can use outside sessions, such as emotion regulation skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy and communication strategies adapted from the Gottman Method. She tailors sessions to each person’s pace and rhythm, and stays open to changing approaches when needed. If you want straightforward help sorting through relationship patterns, codependency, or parenting challenges, she aims to create a dependable space to do that work.

How Erin Uses Practical Therapies Online
Erin commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy when working with people. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence, then practicing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people change how they relate to others and to themselves.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erin will talk with each person about goals, values, and what methods feel most useful. Together they try an approach and adjust it over time based on what is helping and what feels workable in everyday life.
Confirm current session formats before booking, as the specific online options are not listed here. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also makes it simpler to include art activities or skill-practice homework between sessions. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT exercises and attachment work to an online setting so clients can use tools in their daily routines.
