“Erin was so warm and welcoming during my first session. I didn't think that the first session would be as impactful as it was! I was able to be vulnerable in way I haven't in a very long time with someone because her energy and questions came from such a kind and inquisitive place. Highly recommend!”

“Erin was recommended to me by a fellow health care professional as I was having a really hard time after my father died. Erin's reassuring, understanding and empathetic manner put me at ease immediately. She is patient and insightful. I feel she genuinely wants to help you work through what is happening and get you to a better place. Would certainly recommend. ”

Getting to know Erin Finnerty
**Please note: Erin sees couples, adults and adolescents**
We all go through periods of intense stress, worry, or sadness. If you've been concealing parts of yourself in an attempt to cope with those feelings, therapy can help you grow through these experiences toward fulfillment.
In my work, I've found that people are most open to exploration and change when they have a partner they trust in that process. I give my clients tools to look at their experiences and emotions in the spirit of inquiry and move past fear and avoidance. When a client brings me their story, we work together to understand it through trust, humor, creativity, and perseverance.
I have experience with short-term crisis counseling as well as longer-term insight-oriented work. We can build an approach that fits your needs, balancing the practical with the exploratory. My clients have been able to identify maladaptive patterns, challenge themselves to question their assumptions, and break change down into manageable steps.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I draw on various modalities that I feel would best fit the needs of my clients, including psychodynamic therapy, mindfulness, relational therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy. I also have postgraduate training in sex therapy, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), clinical therapy with adolescents, perinatal mood and anxiety disorders, and cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I).

Erin is a gifted and compassionate therapist. She has helped me find clarity, comfort, and a healthy perspective through many challenges and struggles.

Erin helped me over several sessions as I was trying to plan a major career transition while also dealing with the everyday stress of my ongoing job and of being a parent. She was fantastic -- patient, kind, and thoughtful. Erin pushed me just the right amount, using her skills not so much to give advice as to guide me to my own conclusions. She once told me, "rewriting your life story isn't easy," but she helped me do exactly that. I can't recommend her highly enough.
