Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Erin Dunham
Erin draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns; CBT is practical and often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. She also incorporates Mindfulness Therapy, which teaches present-moment awareness and stress-reduction skills that can support emotion regulation and grounding in the face of trauma or overwhelming stress. Motivational Interviewing is another approach she uses to support people who are ambivalent about change - it focuses on clarifying personal values and strengthening internal motivation for steps like recovery, behavior change, or healthier relationships.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Erin works collaboratively with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, then tailors a plan that may combine techniques from different models. That collaborative stance helps ensure the work feels relevant and manageable.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, access care from different locations within Massachusetts, and maintain continuity of support between sessions. These formats provide flexibility in scheduling and communication style while allowing licensed professionals to deliver focused, goal-oriented work.
