About Erin

Erin Johnson, LPC, LMFT, FAMI

Erin was born in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, where she first encountered the ocean as a source of inspiration and renewal. The picture of the ocean on this website was taken by Erin while she was co-facilitating a six day retreat at Sandbridge, Virginia. Erin has faced many personal, career, and health challenges and feels these life experiences have helped her trust in each person’s capacity to find their way through difficult times. She is grateful for her creativity, optimism, curiosity, respectful nature, and sense of humor, and brings these qualities to her work as a coach, counselor, and workshop facilitator.

Erin is a Licensed Professional Counselor in private practice in Charlottesville, Virginia, with over twenty years experience helping people navigate personal, health, and career transitions. She is also a Creativity and Life Coach, specializing in wellness, stress reduction, and accessing creativity. She is a primary trainer, supervisor and faculty of the Mid-Atlantic Institute for Guided Imagery and Music, and Fellow in the Association for Music and Imagery.

She has loved nature, reading, hiking and biking, and laughing with friends since she was a child. She enjoys taking art classes and researching the next place to travel with her soul mate. She lives near Charlottesville, Virginia with her husband (a generous, thoughtful and kind soul, who will drop just about anything to go skiing) and two furry children, Aynsley (a calico cat possessed of strange behaviors, but loving demeanor) and Katy (a compact, devious, and deceptively innocent looking orange cat with a voracious appetite).
