Erin recently earned her Doctor of Education (EdD) from Southeastern University in Lakeland, Florida. After eight years as a labor and delivery nurse, she returned to school to develop the skills to help others heal emotionally, earning her MS in Clinical Psychology from Evangel University in 2000. She later became an intensive therapist at what is now Hope Restored and has since worked in the marriage and family field as an author, teacher, and spokesperson. Erin has practiced privately in Colorado Springs, working with individual women and couples, and recently completed training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy. She loves witnessing the transformation that occurs as hearts heal and relationships are restored. Because we were created for connection, she considers it an honor to help individuals and marriages experience greater healing and restoration.
