Getting to know Erin Crymes
As a therapist, I lead with empathy, authenticity, honesty, accountability, and adaptability. I believe therapy works best as a collaborative relationship—where both client and therapist bring valuable insight, and healing happens through connection, trust, and shared understanding.
I strive to create a warm, respectful, and safe space where you feel supported in exploring your experiences and working toward your goals. In online therapy, I pay close attention to presence, pacing, and accessibility, so that the virtual environment still feels personal and grounded.
My clinical approach is integrative and flexible. I draw from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), strengths-based approaches, narrative therapy, solution-focused work, and interpersonal therapy—always adapting to what fits best for you. I work to help you build on your strengths, gain insight into your story, and develop practical, sustainable tools for growth.
I also bring a culturally responsive and trauma-aware lens to our work, always mindful of the broader social and systemic influences on mental health.
Whether you're navigating anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, or identity exploration, my goal is to support you in feeling seen, heard, and empowered.
I am licensed to provide therapy in Georgia and California.
When I’m not working, you’ll likely find me reading a good novel, trying out a new recipe (with varying results!), exploring new music, or adventuring with my family. I love a spontaneous road trip, a well-crafted playlist, and the quiet joy of a home-cooked meal. Like many people, I’m still working on things like embracing rest without guilt and resisting the urge to compare myself to others. I try to approach life—and therapy—with a sense of humor, humility, and curiosity. At the heart of it all, I’m driven by a deep commitment to helping others find more clarity, connection, and meaning in their lives.

What is your typical process for working with clients?
Going through therapy with a therapist can be a very beneficial experience for individuals who want to work through their mental health challenges and improve their overall well-being. Here are some steps you can take to make the most of your therapy experience:
- Find the right therapist: The first step is to find a therapist who is a good fit
for you. Look for someone who specializes in the type of issues you want
to address and whose style matches your preferences. I hope I can be
that person for you.
-Set clear goals: It's important to have clear goals for therapy so that you
and I are on the same page. In our first session, we will discuss your goals
and work together to create a treatment plan that outlines the steps you
will take to achieve those goals.
- Try to be open and honest with me about your thoughts, feelings, and
behaviors. I am here to help you, and I can only do so if I have a clear
understanding of what's going on.
- Trust the process: Therapy can be a long process, and it's important to
trust that the work you're doing with me will pay off in the end. It's also
important to be patient and not expect instant results.
- Practice self-care: In addition to attending therapy sessions, it's important
to practice self-care on a regular basis. This may include activities such as
exercise, meditation, or spending time with loved ones.
- Keep an open mind: Finally, it's important to keep an open mind and be
willing to try new things. As your therapist, I may suggest different
techniques or approaches that you haven't tried before, and it's important
to be receptive to these suggestions.
Remember, therapy is a collaborative process between you and me, so be sure to communicate your thoughts and concerns along the way. With the right mindset and a willingness to work, therapy can be a transformative experience that helps you achieve your goals and improve your quality of life.
