Erin Cannon, LPC

Erin Cannon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with three years of clinical experience. She earned her master’s degree from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology and practices from Texas. Erin aims to create a respectful, straightforward space where people can talk about what is hard and start making changes.

Erin sees a wide range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship struggles. She also has experience supporting people who have lived through physical or sexual trauma and emotional abuse. She uses practical skills to help with coping, self-esteem, career questions, and life transitions.

Her therapy style is interactive and down-to-earth. Sessions focus on concrete steps, honest conversation, and empathy. Erin adapts the pace and topics to match each person’s needs and life circumstances.

Erin often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviors connect and teaches tools to change unhelpful patterns. She also uses trauma-focused approaches when past harm affects daily life. Those methods are combined with a listening stance to tailor the plan to each person.

People who prefer clear strategies and a compassionate, no-judgment approach tend to find her helpful. She emphasizes dignity and respect, and she works to remove stigma from seeking help. If someone wants practical tools and steady support, Erin frames therapy around real-life goals and next steps.

How CBT and Trauma-Focused Care Work Online

Erin uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT sessions focus on clear skills like identifying unhelpful thoughts, testing assumptions, and building new habits to reduce anxiety and depression.

She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy for people whose past harm still affects day-to-day life. This approach helps process difficult memories and develop coping strategies so triggers cause less disruption.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, current challenges, and preferences, then suggest methods that match those needs. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect: video calls for in-depth sessions, phone for lower bandwidth or quick check-ins, live chat for shorter conversations, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical progress and daily life changes.
