About Erin

Dr. Erin Armour helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, sleep troubles, addiction concerns, grief, anger, and relationship difficulties. She also supports clients facing trauma and abuse, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD, and the strain that comes with caregiving and chronic illness.

Dr. Armour is a licensed psychologist in Tennessee with the credential TN Psychologist 3140 and 11 years of clinical experience. Her sessions are grounded in a warm, compassionate style that aims to empower each person.

Background and approach

She focuses on practical steps and clear goals. Conversations are collaborative and direct, with space for the emotions that come up. Dr.

Armour draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients clarify values and take small actions that match those values. Attachment-based ideas help when relationship patterns and early connections shape current struggles.

She builds an individualized plan with each client, using proven techniques and measurable goals. That plan is revisited and adjusted as progress is made. The therapist emphasizes skills people can use between sessions, such as coping tools for sleep, anxiety, or emotion regulation.

People who reach out can expect straightforward conversation about what they want to change. Dr. Armour aims to make therapy understandable and useful.

She welcomes questions about approach, pacing, and what practical steps to try next.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people identify what matters most to them and take small steps toward those values even when thoughts or feelings are difficult. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. It is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and communication, and it can help when relationship strain or recurring interaction patterns are an issue.

Finding the right fit is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. Together they will try strategies and adjust the approach so the work matches the client's needs and pace.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. These formats allow for flexible scheduling and continued support between meetings. Many people find that remote options reduce travel time and make it simpler to practice skills in their everyday environment.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
