About Erin Wachter (She/Her)
Erin Long, LCSW, helps teens and adults across Wisconsin build resilience, improve emotional balance, and navigate life challenges with greater clarity through compassionate, evidence-based individual therapy at LifeStance Health. She creates a supportive, nonjudgmental space where clients feel understood while developing practical skills to manage anxiety, depression, and ADHD. Erin partners collaboratively with individuals to strengthen self-awareness, improve relationships, and foster meaningful, lasting change. Erin is passionate about supporting clients through identity development, life transitions, and challenges related to self-worth and communication. She works with teens and adults experiencing school avoidance, midlife transitions, and women’s issues, offering thoughtful guidance that meets each person where they are. She is committed to affirming care and proudly supports members of the LGBTQ+ community, helping clients feel safe, respected, and empowered in their mental health journey. Her therapeutic approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), along with mindfulness-based techniques. Erin focuses on helping clients build coping strategies, set healthy boundaries, and improve emotional regulation, while also offering additional areas of support tailored to individual needs. Outside of her clinical work, Erin enjoys reading, watching reality shows, cooking, trying new restaurants, traveling, and spending quality time with friends, family, and her cat and dog.
