ERYN SKYE PHELPS

In private practice since 2015, I have lived and worked as a guide and therapist across the country from Alaska to New England at residential treatment centers, wilderness therapy programs, summer adventure programs, and public and private schools. I earned a Master's Degree in Mental Health Counseling from Plymouth State University in New Hampshire, and a Bachelor's Degree in Creative Writing from the University of Montana (Go Griz!). I'm outside every day with my dog Anchor- a fuzzy ball of love who keeps me tethered to this world. 

I first became a licensed counselor under the supervision of Will White, co-founder of Summit Achievement in Stow, Maine. I studied EMDR under Amber Stiles-Bodnar and Jamie Marich of The Institute for Creative Mindfulness, through which I offer consultation and assist/teach in trainings for clinicians as an EMDRIA Approved Consultant.

In 2019, I traveled to Ericeira, Portugal to  complete Level One Internal Family Systems training under Susan McConnell and Osnat Arbel.  IFS Level Two forthcoming June 2022.

WHAT CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY

​     "You’re supposed to be happy after surviving a near-death experience, right?! I was recovered after five minutes, buried six feet below an avalanche. The grief and PTSD that followed came with confusion, anger, fear and depression. Eryn understood. Having a relationship with the mountains herself, she was the first counselor who could relate to me. Throughout our sessions using EMDR therapy I noticed my body shaking less, and my mind- my story -becoming clearer. EMDR therapy wasn’t burying my experience, rather, uncovering it and giving me the tools to process each trigger as a witness instead of a victim."
-Backcountry Skier

   "I attended Eryn’s practice in 2019. As a police officer, EMDR therapy assisted me with overcoming PTSD situations incurred from work. The therapy has improved my quality of life and provided skills to utilize when needed. I am healthier mentally.  Thank you again for all you do and helping me through my situations. Everything is so much more calm in my life especially at home. I can’t thank you enough."
