Trauma Therapy in Canton, Texas

At Erin Williams Counseling, we help adults, couples, and families heal from the deep, lasting effects of trauma. You may look fine on the outside but feel constantly on edge, disconnected, or weighed down by memories that won’t stay in the past. Trauma changes how you see yourself, how you trust others, and how safe you feel in your own body—and it can make daily life feel like survival.

Our trauma-informed therapists provide a calm, compassionate space to help you process painful experiences, understand your triggers, and learn how to feel grounded again. Whether your trauma stems from childhood experiences, loss, abuse, or betrayal, healing begins when you stop facing it alone.

Neurodivergent-Affirming Therapy for ADHD & Autism in Canton, Texas

At Erin Williams Counseling, we provide neurodivergent-affirming therapy for children, teens, and adults with ADHD and Level 1 or Level 2 Autism. Our work is grounded in the belief that neurodivergence is not a problem to be fixed, but a difference to be understood and supported.

Many of our clients are capable, intelligent, and deeply thoughtful people who feel exhausted from masking, overwhelmed by expectations, or misunderstood by systems that were never built for how their brains work. Therapy here is a space where you don’t have to explain, perform, or become “less” to belong.

Sessions are paced intentionally and may include structure, visuals, concrete tools, flexibility in communication, and real-life strategies that reduce overwhelm. We focus on helping clients understand their brains, reduce shame, and build lives that feel sustainable instead of exhausting.

For parents, we focus on education, support, and helping you understand your child’s needs without pathologizing who they are.

Grief & Loss Therapy in County, Texas

Grief is not one-size-fits-all, and it can change everything. It can reshape how you experience your emotions, relationships, sleep, faith, and even your sense of identity. Grief may show up as deep sadness or numbness, anxiety or irritability, trouble concentrating, physical exhaustion, guilt or anger, or feeling disconnected from yourself or others. These responses are common after loss and do not mean something is wrong with you.

At Erin Williams Counseling, we offer compassionate, trauma-informed grief and loss therapy to help individuals process loss at their own pace. The goal of grief work is not to “get over it,” but to understand the impact of the loss, make meaning of what has been lost, and find a way to move forward while still honoring it. You don’t have to be strong here—therapy provides a steady, supportive space to navigate grief without carrying it alone.

We provide grief and loss counseling for a wide range of experiences, including: death of a loved one, miscarriage, stillbirth, or infertility, divorce or relationship loss, estrangement or complicated family dynamics, loss related to illness or caregiving, traumatic or sudden loss, loss of identity, purpose, or future expectations

Grief deserves care no matter how visible or invisible the loss may feel.

Anxiety Therapy in Canton, Texas

Do you feel like your mind never stops? Maybe you lie awake at night replaying conversations or worrying about things that haven’t even happened yet. Anxiety can take over your thoughts, your body, and your peace of mind—leaving you exhausted, tense, and disconnected from the life you want to live.

At Erin Williams Counseling in Canton, Texas, we specialize in helping adults, couples, and families across Van Zandt County and East Texas who are tired of living in constant worry. Anxiety often shows up as overthinking every decision, a racing heart, tightness in your chest, or always feeling like you’re one step away from something going wrong. You might appear calm on the outside, but inside, you feel restless, distracted, and uneasy.

Our licensed therapists help you understand what your anxiety is trying to tell you and teach you how to calm it. Together, we’ll uncover what’s driving your anxiety—whether it’s unresolved trauma, perfectionism, chronic stress, or people-pleasing—and develop tools that help you take back control of your mind and body.

You’ll learn how to:

Quiet your racing thoughts before they spiral

Manage physical symptoms like tension and fatigue

Set boundaries that protect your energy

Stop the cycle of overthinking and self-criticism

Feel more grounded, clear, and emotionally steady

We know anxiety doesn’t disappear by pretending everything’s fine. Real healing comes from understanding your nervous system and learning new ways to respond to stress. At Erin Williams Counseling, our team provides a warm, judgment-free space where you can talk honestly and learn strategies that actually work in everyday life.

You don’t have to live in constant overdrive. You can feel calm again—no matter what life throws at you.
