Erin Fabrizio

Erin Fabrizio, LCPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, and feelings of isolation. She works with those navigating relationship concerns and depression, and she often supports young adults through life transitions. Her tone is straightforward and encouraging for someone taking the first step toward change.

Erin believes clients are the experts in their own stories. Sessions focus on identifying strengths that already exist and building practical skills to handle day-to-day challenges. She uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs instead of a one-size-fits-all plan.

Her background includes 16 years of counseling experience in Illinois. Much of her work has been with young adults, including college students and athletes, and she has also provided therapy for children and older adults. That range has shaped a flexible, down-to-earth style that fits many life stages.

In sessions she often blends evidence-based techniques with a person-centered stance. That means listening first, then adding specific skills for anxiety, mood, and relationship patterns. Typical conversations include setting small goals, trying new behaviors, and checking what worked.

Erin encourages small, steady steps rather than dramatic change overnight. She aims to make therapy a practical part of everyday life, helping people manage seasonal shifts in mood, handle social anxiety, and reduce the loneliness that can come with major life changes.

How Erin’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on noticing thoughts and making choices based on personal values rather than getting stuck on worries. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and the sense of being alone by clarifying what matters and taking small steps toward it. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical tools to change patterns that keep stress and anxiety going. Client-Centered Therapy prioritizes a warm, nonjudgmental relationship where the person leads the conversation and the therapist follows, which can be helpful when someone needs to feel heard and understood.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Erin will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean trying different tools and noting what helps most over a few sessions.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It can also let people use phone or video choices for lower bandwidth or for sessions that feel less formal. These practical benefits often make it simpler to use therapy consistently while working on anxiety, isolation, and relationship concerns.
