About Erin
Dr. Erin Armour is a psychologist licensed in Tennessee who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, sleep problems, depression, addiction concerns, trauma and grief. She draws on 11 years of practice to listen, ask practical questions, and help people find next steps that feel doable. Her tone is warm and straightforward, focused on small, steady changes rather than quick fixes.
In sessions she uses clear, goal-oriented methods. She combines cognitive behavioral techniques with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered conversation to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new behaviors. Attachment ideas and existential questions also shape how she looks at relationship patterns and life meaning.
Dr. Armour describes her style as compassionate and empowering. She works collaboratively to write an individualized treatment plan. That plan is based on approaches that research supports and on what each person says they want to change.
She has experience addressing a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, bipolar symptoms, chronic pain, caregiver stress, and complex grief. She also helps people with communication and commitment issues that strain close relationships.
Across the work she emphasizes practical skills, clearer communication, and values-based choices. Clients can expect straightforward tools, guided practice, and discussion about what is working between sessions. Her aim is to help people gain steady relief and clearer direction for moving forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns such as sleep disruption or anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience, offering empathic listening and support as people explore choices and goals.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, life circumstances, and preferences, and together decide which methods to emphasize. That collaborative planning helps keep sessions relevant and focused on concrete steps.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let someone choose sessions that match their day - for example a focused phone check-in or a longer video conversation - depending on what the therapist offers and what works best for the individual.
