About Me

Hello and welcome to my practice! I am Dr. Erin Hatch, a licensed clinical psychologist (ME license #PS1464 and member of PsyPact) who has been in the mental health field for over 15 years. I have worked in professional sports, collegiate athletics, and health care settings providing support for a variety of issues including performance anxiety, injury recovery, and life stress.

As a former Division 1 athlete who struggled with anxiety, I am passionate about supporting the athlete population while providing evidence-based care. As a therapist, I strive to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space for clients to explore vulnerabilities and build coping skills to live their most fulfilling lives. I view therapy as a collaborative endeavor where we will work together to identify your unique needs and goals. I hope to form meaningful relationships with clients built on trust and respect. Through this relationship, we can identify, challenge, and shift the thoughts and behaviors that worsen symptoms and get you back to functioning well.

Although I integrate many therapeutic approaches in my work, I consider myself to be a cognitive-behavioral therapist. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a highly effective and practical form of therapy that focuses on how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are interconnected. I integrate mindfulness and meditation into my work as well.

I accept Aetna insurance. Otherwise, my services are self-pay. See Fees and Insurance page for details.

*Due to the limits of my private practice, I do not see people struggling with high risk for suicide/serious self-harm or active substance abuse. Anyone requiring more than weekly contact who needs greater access than I can provide would not be a good fit. For this reason, it is very important that you are aware of other services available in the event of a crisis. If you experience a crisis or emergency, call 988 or go to your local emergency room.
