Erin Stirling - Registered Social Worker, MSW, Psychotherapist

Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or stretched too thin? If you’re balancing the demands of caregiving, parenting, work, or simply trying to keep up with the day to day pressures of life - you’re not alone. Let’s work together to enrich your mental health, build coping strategies and reclaim your wellbeing.

I’m thrilled to join Mindwise Mental Health Services and I offer weekend availability to help make mental health support more accessible for busy lives. Virtual (video or phone) from anywhere in Ontario and walk and talk sessions in Ancaster are available.

I’m a compassionate registered social worker with 20 years of experience spanning hospital work, community mental health, and primary care - giving me deep insight into complex health issues, the medical system, aging and caregiving.

I specialize in supporting individuals with depression and anxiety, as well as those who are going through life transitions. Whether you’re navigating infertility, postpartum, relationship changes or hormonal shifts, I offer guidance through the complexities that these stages can bring.

My approach prioritizes self-compassion and mindfulness through a strengths based lens, integrating evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in a non-judgmental space.

My goal is to work together to develop and enrich your current coping strategies, create meaningful change, and reclaim an overall sense of balance and wellbeing.

Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing60 min

EMDR is a structured therapy that helps people heal from trauma and emotional distress. When something overwhelming happens, our brain can get "stuck" in the experience, making it feel like the past is still happening now. EMDR helps the brain reprocess those memories so they feel more distant, less intense, and no longer interfere with the present. This approach uses gentle eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation to support your natural healing process. Many people find relief more quickly than with talk therapy alone. If you're struggling with past experiences, anxiety, or feel emotionally triggered in ways that don’t make sense, EMDR may help.

Sometimes a good walk can help clear your head and when paired with therapy, it can do even more. Walk and Talk Therapy is just what is sounds like: a full therapy session, but instead of sitting in an office, or at a screen, we take it outside. Moving through nature side by side can make conversation feel more natural and less intense, especially if sitting face-to-face feels a bit too much. Walking can also help ease anxiety, lift your mood, and spark insight. Whether you are looking for a more relaxed vibe, enjoy being outdoors, or just feel more comfortable moving while you talk, Walk and Talk Therapy offers a fresh, grounding way to support your mental health.
