Erin Lee (LCSW)

I have been a therapist in Illinois for 20 years working with clients struggling primarily with anxiety, depression, family conflict, parenting, ADHD, and grief/loss. I have a Master’s in Social Work degree from University of Illinois at Chicago as well as an additional certification in mindfulness. My therapy approach involves creating a compassionate, calm space where clients can delve into the barriers that make life difficult to manage. Using a solution-focused based therapy infused with dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness training, clients are able to reflect on changes they want to see and make small steps in a positive direction. We all have good intentions but sometimes our busy and overwhelming lives keep us from forming better habits. I encourage clients to access mindfulness and positive self care strategies that are easy to implement for noticeable and effective change so life can be lived to the fullest! For the summer months, I use a fast track approach to getting relief quickly . I suggest meeting 6 times within a 3 week span with a specific goal in mind. I use a psychoeducational approach, offering strategies that are easy to implement. If you are looking for longer term therapy, this may not be the right fit for you. I can also use the LiveChat option for therapy as this has been proven to be a convenient and comfortable platform for many of my clients.
