Getting to know Erin Patel
Who I Am: I am a experienced psychotherapist who earned her master’s degree in clinical social work from Rutgers University in New Jersey (Go RU!). I provide a compassionate, empathetic, and supportive environment to promote healing and growth for her clients. I pride myself on being positive, warm, and approachable, which helps build a strong therapeutic relationship. I strive for making clients feel comfortable in the therapy process and it is my top priority to create a safe space.
What should a new client know about working with you?
What to Expect in Therapy: Every client is their own individual person, and their therapy experience should reflect that. I have a collaborate approach to help my clients set goals and explore their own strengths towards practical actions to meet those goals. I specifically work with each client to explore their purpose for therapy, what they are looking to get out of it, and how they can accomplish those goals together. Therapy style and modalities will then tailor to what is going to be the most helpful.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Who I Sees: With experience working with clients facing anxiety, depression, life transitions/changes, employment/job issues, adjustment disorders, relationship issues, trauma, and severe mental illnesses, I am equipped to be a strong support through your therapy journey. I utilize a Client Centered approach and integrates parts of CBT, DBT and ACT into my practice. With almost 10 years of experience both in the private practice and community mental health space, I am ready to walk hand-in-hand with you towards a place of hope and well-being.

Erin is wonderful and I love speaking with her! She is kind and empathetic and i felt comfortable right away. Erin listened to me and I never felt judgement from her. I would highly recommend her as a therapist and I am really grateful I found her.

I feel extremely lucky to have Erin as my therapist. In the past, my experiences with therapy left a really bad taste in my mouth, and it caused me to put off seeking professional help when I needed it the most. Finding Erin has helped me have such a positive experience with therapy and feel better mentally and emotionally.
Erin really allowed me to take therapy at my own pace which helped me gain trust in her and the process. I always feel heard and understood, and she allows me to take our sessions in whatever direction feels right for me. The questions she asks never feel clinical or like she's just checking things off a list - they always feel natural and sincere and help put me at ease and feel safe to dig deeper into the issues.
She has given me many tools that I incorporate in my every day life to help balance my mental health. She has quite the toolbox, and we worked through strategies together to find the ones that worked for me. I can't recommend Erin enough!

Erin is an exceptional therapist. She is empathetic, insightful, and grounded. She created a space where I could feel truly seen and supported, and helped me deal with complex, at times overwhelming, emotions with clarity and compassion. Her approach blends warmth with practical guidance, and made me feel empowered to achieve real growth.

Working with Erin was an absolute pleasure from the moment I walked in to the end of our session. She made me feel like I was really heard and focused her attention on helping me with addressing the outstanding issues prompting my visit. Erin was kind, easy to talk to, and genuinely cared about my perspective which helped me to open up naturally during our session which is not something I am normally comfortable with straight away when talking with people. In addition, she really engaged me in identifying pathways of addressing potential obstacles with positivity and encouragement which are all qualities of a true professional who actually cares. Overall, I would highly recommend Erin and encourage anyone who needs a genuine person who cares about their patients to make a consultation appointment.

Working with Erin has been one of the best experiences of my life. From our very first session, she created a space that felt safe, grounded, and genuinely supportive—something that is so crucial, especially when working through trauma.
Erin has an incredible ability to meet you exactly where you are, with empathy, patience, and deep respect for your process. She listens with true presence, asks thoughtful questions, and offers insights that are validating. I never felt rushed or judged—only understood and encouraged.
If you are seeking a therapist who truly understands the complexity of trauma and how to heal from it, I cannot recommend Erin highly enough. She is a remarkable therapist and a deeply caring human being. I’m so grateful for the work we’ve done together.
