About Erin

Dr. Erin Sullivan is a Connecticut psychologist with 13 years of clinical experience who helps people facing parenting challenges, ADHD, anxiety, and stress. She also supports those dealing with depression, low self-esteem, and LGBT-related concerns. Her way of working is practical and straightforward, aimed at parents and young adults who need clear strategies and steady support.

Her sessions tend to focus on organizing daily life, managing emotions, and reducing procrastination. She uses approaches that invite collaboration, so people leave with steps they can try between meetings. Dr. Sullivan believes clients bring strengths and insight to the process, and she offers guidance and positive feedback along the way.

She blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to tailor the work to each person. That means listening carefully, then suggesting concrete tools such as routines, thought-challenging, and behavior experiments. The goal is to make small changes that build better habits and clearer thinking.

Over her career she has helped people manage learning differences, autism spectrum concerns, impulsivity, and social anxiety. She also works with those navigating intellectual disability and young adult transitions. Her style is calm, respectful, and focused on practical outcomes that fit everyday life.

People in Connecticut who prefer sessions in English will find her background relevant to family and parenting issues. Before booking, confirm current session options and scheduling to match what will work best for you.

How her approaches guide online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person's priorities. In practice this means the therapist spends time hearing your concerns and reflecting them back so you feel understood. That helps clarify what to work on first and builds a collaborative plan.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, procrastination, and ADHD-related organization problems because it breaks issues into concrete steps to practice between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with you to decide which methods fit your goals and preferences. Expect a collaborative conversation about what to try, and gradual adjustments based on what helps most.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since formats are not specified here. Ask about the available online options and how they fit your routine. Many people find remote sessions make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or parenting days, reduce travel time, and allow focused check-ins during a break. If a phone-only check-in or a shorter meeting would work better for a busy day, discuss those possibilities when you schedule.
