About Erwin
Erwin Gilliam is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi. He helps people facing anger, relationship strain, low self-esteem, career stress, parenting challenges, depression, and ADHD. He aims for straightforward conversations that get to the heart of the problem.
Erwin leans on practical, goal-focused work. He often uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and replace them with clearer thinking. He also draws on client-centered and mindfulness approaches when a gentler or more reflective path fits better.
Background and approach
His background includes a master’s degree in organizational counseling psychology and experience in public schools. That work included three years as a school counselor, seven years as an assistant principal, and one year as a head principal. Those roles shaped how he communicates and problem-solves with people.
Sessions are organized around clear goals set together. He talks with clients about specific behaviors to change and practical steps to try between meetings. Motivation and solution-focused strategies are used when clients want short-term, actionable plans.
Erwin presents therapy as teamwork. He focuses on treating people with dignity and sensitivity while adapting the approach to each person’s needs. The first session usually looks at priorities and a plan for moving forward.

Practical approaches for online anger and relationship work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person’s experience and helps people feel heard while they decide what changes they want to make. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and uses clear exercises to shift those patterns; it is helpful for anger, depression, and stress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus in tense moments.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences, then combine methods as needed to match the situation. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so the plan can change if something isn’t working.
Online sessions offer flexibility for people with busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face dialogue, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat can provide a shorter check-in, and text messaging supports brief reflections between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it into work, school, or parenting routines.
