About Erin
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Oregon with 11 years of clinical experience, Erin Bythrow helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, ADHD, and issues related to identity and relationships. Erin has particular experience supporting LGBT people and those who have had contact with the legal system. Sessions are collaborative and focused on practical change.
Erin uses clear, evidence-informed methods. Clients can expect Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools for thinking and behavior patterns, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and person-centered techniques that prioritize the individual's perspective. Motivational Interviewing is also part of the approach when people want help clarifying goals and finding internal motivation.
In sessions Erin works side by side with the person to set concrete goals. Conversations often include skill practice, behavior experiments, and tracking progress over time. Goals might be reducing panic attacks, managing mood swings, improving communication, or coping with grief.
Erin notes that therapy is a collaborative process. The clinician adapts methods to each person's strengths and life demands rather than following a fixed protocol. This means the plan can change as people make progress or encounter new challenges.
Practical matters are handled plainly. Erin practices in Oregon as an LPC and conducts sessions in English. For next steps, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the service’s booking flow.

How Erin uses evidence-based approaches in remote sessions
Erin commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in session. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; it is practical for anxiety, depression, panic, and mood symptoms. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills; it is useful when strong emotions or impulsivity make daily life hard. Choosing which approach to emphasize is collaborative. Erin works with each person to clarify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. The therapist checks in about progress and shifts methods as needed so work stays relevant to the client's needs and preferences. Confirm the session formats offered before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, or offering a session without video if bandwidth is limited. These practical benefits help people maintain continuity of care and use skills between appointments.Sheet 3
