### Licensed Master of Social Worker

Hi, I’m Erin, a recent MSW graduate from Bryn Mawr College.

I provide [therapy](https://www.columbiapsychiatry-dc.com/psychiatric-care/mental-health-counseling-and-therapy/) services at our [Glen Burnie](https://www.columbiapsychiatry-dc.com/wp-content/uploads/wp-mfa-exports/location/glen-burnie-md.md) clinic. I work with adolescents and adults ages 12+. My approach is psychodynamic, relational, and grounded in anti-oppressive and anticapitalist perspectives. As a queer therapist, I’m especially passionate about creating an affirming space for LGBTQ+ clients. I believe meaningful therapy begins with a relationship in which you feel safe enough to be honest, vulnerable, curious, and fully yourself. I will bring warmth, curiosity, and a nonjudgmental presence to our work while also inviting you to look more deeply at patterns that may no longer be serving you.

I work with clients navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, perfectionism, self-worth, self-compassion, boundaries, and questions related to gender and sexuality. I am particularly interested in helping people explore the ways their past experiences, relationships, identities, and environments influence how they relate to themselves and others in the present.

Therapy with me is a space where you don’t have to have everything figured out. Together, we can slow down, get curious about the patterns and experiences that have shaped you, and better understand what may be getting in the way of living the life you want.
