Erin Friedsam

Hi, I’m Erin (she/her/hers), an EIDBI level 2 provider with a passion for blending structure, creativity, and connection in my work. As someone with AuDHD, I bring both lived experience and a unique perspective to my sessions, creating a space that’s dynamic, supportive, and designed to foster personal growth and self-awareness.

What You Can Expect
In our sessions, we’ll explore emotions, build self-awareness, and work toward personal goals through engaging and goal-oriented activities. I enjoy incorporating creative expressions like drawing, storytelling, and even building with clay to make sessions both meaningful and fun. My approach is a mix of structured and creative methods, with a natural inclination toward organized, goal-driven activities. From building intricate Lego creations to solving mysteries or diving into strategy games, I tailor each session to find that goodness of fit between our interests and needs.

High-energy conversations, humor, and shared interests are at the core of my work. I strive to create sessions that feel dynamic and energizing, with plenty of variety to keep both of us motivated and engaged. Therapy isn’t just about progress—it’s about finding joy in the process and celebrating the unique strengths you bring to the table.

Who I Work Best With
I connect most with clients who are talkative, curious, and ready to dive into creative and structured activities. If you enjoy sharing ideas, exploring your special interests, or trying out new ways to engage with the world, we’ll work well together. Humor, playfulness, and a willingness to explore are important to me, as they help make our time together both productive and enjoyable.

A Little About Me
Outside of sessions, you’ll find me immersed in activities that involve building, creating, and solving. Whether it’s constructing a new art project, solving an escape room puzzle, or designing something functional yet beautiful, I thrive on tasks with clear goals and tangible results. I also enjoy quieter pastimes like coloring, which help me recharge and stay balanced.

As someone who’s highly attuned to sensory environments, I value calm, organized, and visually balanced spaces. By creating a predictable and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere, I aim to help both myself and my clients feel grounded and comfortable.

Let’s Connect

If you’re looking for a provider who combines structure, creativity, and a conversational, playful style, I’d love to work with you. Together, we’ll build meaningful connections, explore new ideas, and discover ways to help you grow and thrive. I look forward to meeting you and starting this journey together!
