About Erin

Dr. Erin Armour is a Tennessee psychologist (TN Psychologist 3140) with 11 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, relationship difficulties, addiction concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and codependency. Sessions are conducted in English and based in Tennessee.

She focuses on practical, short-term steps as well as longer conversations about patterns that repeat in relationships. In sessions she uses cognitive-behavioral ideas to notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on acceptance and commitment methods to help people clarify values and take action even when feelings are difficult.

Dr. Armour uses client-centered and attachment-informed ways of working to explore how past relationships affect present choices. She describes therapy as collaborative and goal-oriented, so clients help set the pace and targets for work. She also includes existential perspectives when people are wrestling with meaning, loss, or big life changes.

Her background includes supporting people coping with chronic pain, illness, and disability, along with challenges that come from caregiving and aging. She has experience with communication and intimacy issues and with helping people tired of people-pleasing find clearer boundaries.

New clients are invited to begin with a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The practice uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time; cost varies by location. International clients are not accepted at this time.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Dr. Armour commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without letting them rule actions and helps people identify values to guide choices. CBT looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers concrete strategies to change patterns that cause distress.

She also brings attachment-informed and client-centered perspectives to conversations about relationships and communication. These approaches help track how early patterns show up now and how to practice new ways of relating. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative; the therapist and client review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan over time.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking, since the listing does not specify formats. Ask which session types are offered and choose the one that fits your schedule. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time so sessions can happen between commitments. The therapist will discuss what works best for your needs and preferences when you schedule the first appointment.
