About Erin

Erin Cullen is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with twenty years of experience helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, or family struggles. She focuses on practical support for parenting concerns, self-esteem, and navigating life changes. Her tone is straightforward and calm to help worried parents find a steady place to start.

Erin begins by listening to what matters most to each person. She asks simple questions to learn how daily life feels and which problems cause the most strain.

Background and approach

From there she offers concrete tools for coping, managing nerves, and improving communication at home. Sessions emphasize small, manageable steps that parents can try between meetings. Erin helps people notice patterns that keep problems stuck and then practices new ways of responding.

She also works on rebuilding self-compassion and clearer boundaries when control issues or codependency are present. Her background includes long clinical experience in community and outpatient settings across Indiana. That experience shaped a practical style that values usefulness over theory.

Erin draws on a range of proven techniques to fit each person’s needs rather than a one-size-fits-all plan. People who come to Erin often want straightforward strategies for family tension, parenting strain, or midlife re-evaluation. She aims to make change doable, focusing on what will help you feel steadier and more in charge of everyday life.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and how online therapy works

Erin uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach she uses helps people identify repeating patterns in relationships and daily life, then practices new responses to reduce stress and improve communication. Another approach emphasizes skill-building for managing anxiety and strong emotions through breathing, grounding, and structured problem-solving to make daily tasks feel more manageable.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erin will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together you decide which techniques to try and adjust them as needed so the work fits your life and parenting responsibilities.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you need a shorter check-in. Live chat or messaging works well for quick updates, ongoing support between meetings, and when written reflection helps you process. These options help fit therapy into busy schedules and different daily routines.
