About Erin

Dr. Erin Armour is a licensed clinical psychologist in Tennessee who helps people manage stress and anxiety among other concerns. She brings 11 years of experience supporting people facing depression, bipolar disorder, relationship strain, sleep trouble, addictions, grief, trauma, and caregiver stress. Her manner is warm and compassionate, aimed at helping people take small, practical steps toward feeling better.

She meets each person where they are and works together to set clear, realistic goals. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client, whether that is improving sleep, reducing panic, rebuilding trust, or coping with life changes. She uses straightforward tools and explanations so clients can practice skills between meetings.

Her approach blends evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral therapy with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered conversation. Attachment-based ideas and existential themes may also appear when relevant to a person’s story. Treatment plans are individualized and mutually agreed upon, with attention to measurable progress.

Dr. Armour has experience helping people with chronic pain, disability, ADHD, and communication problems that affect daily life. She also supports people working through issues such as abandonment, body image concerns, and care-related burnout. Her work includes attention to practical coping strategies and rebuilding routines.

She asks clients to participate actively, try out techniques between sessions, and be honest about what does and does not help. Getting support is a practical step, and she helps make that step feel manageable for people juggling busy lives.

How specific approaches can work in online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people identify what matters most to them and take committed action even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings show up. It can help with stress, anxiety, and life transitions by teaching flexible ways to respond. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and some aspects of addiction. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience, offering a nonjudgmental space to strengthen self-understanding and self-directed change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or combine methods that match goals, needs, and personal preferences. This collaborative process may shift over time as problems change and new priorities emerge.

If you are interested in online options, please confirm current session formats before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit care into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when life is hectic. It also lets people continue work when mobility, medical issues, or caregiving duties make in-person visits difficult. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and client-centered methods so sessions translate into practical exercises you can use day to day.
