Erin Gray, LMHC

Erin Gray is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 13 years of practice experience in Florida. She trained at Troy University, earning a master's degree in Counseling and Psychology, and she also holds a bachelor's degree in Psychology from the University of Central Florida. Erin has worked across nonprofit and corporate settings and in private practice, bringing that background to client sessions.

Her approach is warm and interactive. She treats people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion without using stigmatizing labels. Sessions focus on practical ways to manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, sleep problems, and career or life transitions. Thoughts and everyday habits are part of how she helps clients notice and change unhelpful patterns.

Erin draws on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy to tailor conversations and plans to each person's needs. She works collaboratively to set goals and to try small, realistic steps between meetings. The work often involves noticing thought patterns, testing them out, and building everyday habits that support change.

She has experience supporting people facing chronic illness, cancer, chronic pain, codependency, obsessive-compulsive patterns, panic, phobias, postpartum mood changes, compassion fatigue, and financial or career stress. Sessions also address life purpose, commitment concerns, and feelings of emptiness or shame.

Erin practices in Florida and conducts sessions in English. If someone is ready to begin, she asks clients to use the site Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's lead, helping people feel understood and respected while they name what they want to change. This approach supports issues like low self-esteem, grief, and relationship concerns by centering the client's priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and everyday habits that keep problems going, then testing new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is often useful for anxiety, panic, obsessive patterns, and sleep difficulties.

Mindfulness Therapy helps people notice physical sensations and thoughts without getting swept away by them. It can reduce stress and improve coping with chronic illness, pain, or strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Erin adapts sessions over time, mixing listening, practical exercises, and small behavioral steps based on how things are progressing.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and options that can reduce travel time or make scheduling simpler. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm which formats are offered before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for maintaining consistent momentum and applying new habits between meetings.
