Hi, I’m Erin
I’m a Master level Psychologist, Mental Health Coach, former therapist, and someone who knows what it feels like to live in your own head.
On the outside, my life looked successful. I had a great career and a happy family.
But internally, I was constantly second-guessing myself, overthinking everything, and questioning whether I was good enough.
I’ve spent most of my life dealing with intrusive negative thoughts.
I questioned my worth, my abilities, and my decisions.
Even when I succeeded, I couldn’t fully believe it.
I replayed conversations, assumed I got things wrong, and compared myself to others who seemed more confident and capable.
At work, I held myself back. At home, I worried I wasn’t enough.
No matter how much evidence I had, it never felt like it counted.
My background in psychology and my work as a therapist helped me understand something important:
Our thoughts shape everything.
My Story
But understanding that wasn’t enough. For a long time, I helped other people change their thinking without fully applying it to myself.
Everything changed after attending a rock concert. Hear me out. I attended a concert of my favorite band, the first and probably only time I will ever see them, and I spent the entire concert SITTING in my seat. Not dancing. Not standing and clapping. Sitting. Why? I was worried about bothering the people behind me. It didn’t matter that they were standing and dancing. It didn’t matter that my best friend was encouraging me to stand up and dance too. Nope. Something in my head kept me in my seat. Did I enjoy the show? Yes. But how much more would I have enjoyed it had I not been stuck fussing at myself in my head the whole time? If I had been fully present and relaxed? A lot more.
I felt like I missed out. No one should feel regret after seeing a band they’ve been in love with since they were sixteen. The entire situation was ridiculous! And completely within my control. Once I recognized this, I started seeing self-doubt show up everywhere. I saw all the ways I put myself down, made myself unsure, saw myself as less.
I finally started doing the work myself.
I learned how to catch my thoughts in real time, question them, and change the way I responded to them. I worked on forgiving myself for past mistakes. I focused on appreciating myself, my entire self, as I am right now.
I started to feel genuinely happier. I started to laugh easier. I started letting myself rest when my body needed it without feeling like I was wasting time. I felt more present with my kids and my spouse. I started to appreciate what I have already achieved. I started making more intentional choices about how I spent my “free time”. I started to read books instead of picking up my phone. I started taking time to rediscover hobbies I enjoyed as a kid but gave up to be a responsible adult.
Then I started to think about what I wanted to do next.
For me it was a hard plastic seat at a rock concert, but how about you?
When was the last time self-doubt held you back from standing confidently?
What I Know Now
Confidence doesn’t come from achieving more.
It comes from changing how you think about yourself.
You don’t need to become a different person.
You need to learn how to respond differently to the thoughts that are already there
My Work Today
I spent over a decade working in mental health, supporting individuals through anxiety, trauma, depression, and life challenges.
I’ve worked as a therapist, program manager, and leader in clinical settings.
Now, as a Mental Health Coach, I focus on helping professional women break out of negative thought patterns so they can move forward with confidence.
This work is practical, focused, and designed to create real change in your day-to-day life
A Little More About Me
I’ve taken big risks in my life, including leaving a stable career in banking to follow my calling in mental health.
I’ve lived abroad with my family and experienced major life transitions that challenged how I saw myself.
I’ve also learned that not everything has to become a goal or an achievement.
Some things are allowed to just bring you joy.
I love reading and writing fiction, and I’ve learned to return to creativity without pressure or expectation.
That shift alone changed how I see my time, my value, and my life.
Why This Matters to Me?
There was a moment at a concert where I realized how much my thoughts were holding me back. I had great seats. The energy was incredible.
But I stayed in my head, worried about how I looked and what others thought.
I had a good time, but I also saw how much better it could have been.
That’s what negative self-talk does. It doesn’t always stop your life. But it keeps you from fully experiencing it.
I don’t want that for you.
