My Approach to Helping
Hello there, I am Erin Zarlino, LPCC, I am a licensed professional clinical counselor in the state of Ohio offering counseling sessions to adults and or adolescents to navigate the ups and downs of life.
Do you often fear you are a burden to others, fear of rejection and/or abandonment, or fear getting close to others? Does it feel like you are repeating patterns in relationships that you don’t like? Maybe you also have trouble expressing how you feel and controlling your feelings when stressors come. When stressors happen they can often leave us feeling not good enough or feeling numb. Are you a new parent or a veteran parent wanting to feel less overwhelmed? Maybe you feel like you lost part of your identity and want to find it again. Maybe you experience a pregnancy loss, a tough birth experience, or are going through infertility and want a safe space to process it.
I can help! I have 7+ years of experience in the counseling field, I am eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) trained. I have advanced training in preverbal trauma with EMDR. I am also trained to treat post-partum mood and anxiety conditions, as well as perinatal grief and loss. Using EMDR therapy together can help us sort through stuck beliefs, unresolved traumas, and anything else we want to work through. I also provided supportive talk therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS) informed skills, mindfulness skills, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) skills to help create a safe space to process your struggles.
I am here for you. My goal as your counselor is to create a safe space to get to the root of the problem as well as develop and achieve goals.
