Erin Lee

Erin Lee is a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois with two decades of experience helping people manage anxiety, depression, family conflict, parenting challenges, ADHD, and grief. She earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Illinois at Chicago and also holds a certification in mindfulness.

Erin creates a calm, compassionate space where clients can explore the obstacles that make daily life feel overwhelming. Her work blends a solution-focused orientation with elements of dialectical behavior therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and mindfulness training so clients can clarify the changes they want and take small, achievable steps toward them. She encourages practical self-care and mindfulness practices that are straightforward to use and that support noticeable improvement in functioning and wellbeing.

During the summer months Erin offers a fast-track option designed to bring relief more quickly: a focused series of six sessions over a three-week span that targets a specific goal and uses a psychoeducational approach with easy-to-apply strategies. She notes this short-term format may not be the right fit for clients seeking longer-term therapy. Erin also provides therapy via LiveChat, which many of her clients find to be a comfortable and convenient way to engage in treatment.
