About Erin

Erin George is an Ohio LISW - a licensed independent social worker with 15 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and related issues such as grief and sleep problems.

She commonly addresses problems that stem from family of origin patterns. She helps people notice how roles, expectations, and old ways of coping from childhood still affect their decisions now. She also supports work on communication, codependency, blended family strain, and difficulties around abandonment or divorce and separation.

In sessions she focuses on practical steps and clear conversation. Erin talks through current struggles, points out patterns people repeat, and helps plan manageable changes. She brings years of practice helping adults with substance use, anger, and mood concerns among other challenges.

Her approach is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and steady clinical experience. She works with clients on goals such as improving relationships, reducing anxiety, managing grief, and improving sleep and daily routines. Clients can expect focused work on both past family influences and present-day coping skills.

Erin’s practice is aimed at adults seeking to understand and change long-standing patterns. She accepts sessions in English and practices under her Ohio LISW credential.

Evidence-based approaches and online sessions

Erin works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on identifying unhelpful patterns and building practical coping skills. One common approach she uses involves structured work to reduce anxiety and improve daily routines, which helps with sleep, worry, and stress management. Another approach centers on processing how family of origin patterns shape current relationships and decision making, helping clients notice repeated roles and try different responses.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Erin will discuss options with each person and adapt techniques to their goals, preferences, and what feels manageable. The work often blends pattern-focused conversation with skill practice so clients can try changes between sessions.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so please confirm available session types before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by saving commute time and allowing appointments during a break from work or other responsibilities. Phone sessions can be useful when a shorter check-in is needed or when video bandwidth is limited. Talk with her when you schedule to learn which formats are currently offered and which will best fit your routine.
