About
Erin Plachko is a licensed professional counselor based in Colorado with seven years of clinical experience. She began her career in community mental health in the Denver area, working first with families and later with adults experiencing severe and persistent mental illness. This foundation informs a practical, skills-oriented approach to care that remains attentive to the whole person.
Her practice combines cognitive behavioral techniques, solution focused methods, and motivational interviewing within a broader holistic perspective. She also integrates Christian-informed counseling when that framework is meaningful to the individual.

Outside her clinical work she maintains an active lifestyle, enjoying cycling, gardening, reading, travel, and time with family, friends, and her church community. Her background reflects both community mental health experience and a commitment to supporting people through relationship challenges, trauma, grief, and questions of purpose and self-worth.

Remote sessions that combine evidence-based methods and a holistic outlook
Erin offers online sessions that draw from cognitive behavioral methods, solution focused work, and motivational interviewing to support personal change and emotional processing. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to help identify patterns of thought and behavior and to develop practical coping skills. Solution focused methods emphasize setting achievable goals and building on existing strengths to move toward desired changes. Motivational interviewing supports exploration of ambivalence and helps clients find their own reasons for change.
She blends these approaches with a broader, holistic perspective and can incorporate Christian-informed counseling when clients prefer that orientation. Erin works collaboratively, seeking to understand each person’s values and life context while co-creating a plan that fits their priorities. Online sessions are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to accommodate different communication preferences and schedules.
