About
Erin Ballard is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT). Originally from Northern Virginia, she has a B.A. in psychology and a M.S. in Marriage and Family Therapy. Erin is the owner of Family Solutions and Wellness Center, and provides counseling and supervision services throughout the state of NC.
Erin specializes in working with individuals and couples who are struggling with personal or relational challenges. Erin has strengths in working with high conflict couples, including those who have considered separation or divorce. Erin has training in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy (EFT) and specializes in helping couples resolve destructive cycles of interaction and communication that produce distress.
Erin examines attachment needs and primary emotions, and works to strengthen the foundation by which individuals find love, support, connection, and safety. Erin pulls from Gottman Couples Therapy to help couples increase respect, affection, closeness, understanding, communication and conflict resolution skills. Certified in Prepare/Enrich, Erin utilizes this relationship assessment to “prepare” premarital couples for successful marriages, and to “enrich” the relationships of those who are dating or married.
When couples have made the decision to separate/divorce, Erin works closely with parents and/or their children in order to help each family member cope with this transition and life change. When families are struggling to blend together as a step-family, Erin works with couples, children, and/or the whole family to navigate this successfully.
