About Me

Hello! My name is Erin Walsh. My passion lies in working with children, adolescents, and adults, offering therapy that is compassion-focused, strength-based, and tailored to each of my clients’ needs. I believe that a collaborative therapeutic relationship can help clients navigate life challenges, knowing they are supported and provided with the tools they need to improve their mental health.

My Experience

I graduated from Yorkville University with a Master’s degree in counselling psychology and my undergraduate degree is also in psychology from Memorial University. I have a background in developmental and forensic psychology, combined with six years of experience working in New Brunswick schools as a behaviour intervention mentor for elementary, middle, and high school students. I branched into private practice after obtaining my master’s degree, which allowed me to support children, youth, and families as they work to overcome trauma, increase life satisfaction, and navigate difficulties in a safe, compassionate, and empathetic environment.

My Approach

I have been trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Person-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Somatic approaches. I use these modalities to create personalized support for clients who are dealing with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, anger management, chronic stress, complex trauma, addiction, interpersonal violence, breakdowns in interpersonal relationships, navigating neurodiversity, infidelity, and grief management. I invite clients to join me on a path toward a more empowered, authentic, and fulfilling life where their mental health is prioritized and their voice is heard.

My Practice

I believe in the power of a collaborative, compassion-focused therapeutic relationship to facilitate change, foster resiliency, aid in self-discovery, and promote the long-term wellbeing of my clients. I believe that every client has unique strengths and that they are the expert on their own life experiences. I offer an eclectic and personalized approach that provides opportunities for the growth and development of those internal resources so that my clients feel empowered and supported in facing the challenges before them. I feel honored to be a part of your healing journey.

My Location

In-person (Saint John), virtual, or phone appointments are available, making it convenient for clients to access the support they need.
