Erin Mercer, LPC

Erin Mercer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who holds a Master of Arts in Counseling from Wayne State University and a school counseling certification in Michigan (NT). She combines her formal training with a warm, down-to-earth style that helps people feel at ease when exploring the issues that brought them to therapy.

Her career began in education, where working with students and their families highlighted a passion for the social and emotional side of growth. That experience prompted a shift into counseling and graduate study so she could focus on supporting individuals and families through the challenges they face.

Erin has worked with individuals on relationships - including family, friends, and couples - and on concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, parenting, sleep difficulties, self-esteem, intimacy-related issues, and coping with life changes. She favors a person-centered approach, offering genuine feedback and steady support to foster greater self-awareness. When appropriate, she draws on techniques from multiple therapeutic approaches, such as journaling, role playing, and small between-session exercises, always prioritizing client comfort throughout the counseling journey.
