Marriage COunseling & EMDR Therapy for Women in Franklin, TN

IT’S TIME TO QUIET THE INNER CRITIC & TAKE CONTROL OF WHAT HAPPENS NEXT.

ERin Hunter, TLMFT

My practice is all about helping busy women & couples, just like you

I understand it. You feel totally depleted from the delicate balancing of all the things. Maybe you feel like you’re constantly walking on eggshells, afraid to make a mistake or that it’s easier to ignore what you’re feeling just to keep the peace. The outcome is that you feel disconnected, alone and unsure where things are heading.

When the struggle to just get through the day has grown to be too much, and you’re ready to make the changes needed, together we’ll quiet that inner critic (that has taken up residency in your mind), stop the patterns of disconnection and get you feeling more confident and in control of how you feel.

The couples & women I work with need a change. They need a break from the burdens of their worn out cycles of fighting, anxiety, depression, past trauma or broken relationships. They long for lasting change but just aren’t sure how to start. 

That’s where I come in. Together, we’ll work to develop an understanding of how you got to this place so that we can map a way out toward the lasting change that you are so capable of.

You’re in the right spot.

How I work

I believe that continuous growth and healing are our life's work. It’s a constant evolution.

I am passionate about supporting couples & women who have multiple roles, support others, and carry unspoken burdens. They often find themselves at a crossroads and are looking for support as they untangle their past from their future.

I am a wife, mother to a young child and after more than 20 years as a busy professional in the corporate environment, I knew something needed to change, I just wasn’t sure what or how. Since then, I’ve earned Masters Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy with clinical honors, have trained in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and have focused on helping others with renewing connections in their relationship and quieting the internal critic.

I’m also EMDRIA-approved in somatic and attachment-focused EMDR therapy. I believe our past experiences can easily play into our current mindset without us realizing it. Using this concept and evidenced-based therapies, I work with clients to explore what negative core beliefs impact them, such as not being good enough or not deserving, and then work to unravel those beliefs.

Those that I work with often express feeling greater insight, more self-empathy, and less reactivity. They also report deeper connections leading to more satisfying relationships.

My clients often describe me as compassionate and easy to talk to, yet I can be direct when needed. I’m here to create this change with you, but it’s also my job to ensure it happens. I’ll hold us both accountable.
