Background and approach
He leans on narrative ideas to help people reframe problems and find new meaning in their stories. In sessions he uses Client-Centered methods to create a respectful, listening space. He draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and DBT skills for emotion regulation when needed.
He also uses solution-focused techniques to set concrete steps toward goals. Eric tailors his approach to each person's needs. That can mean short-term work on a specific issue or longer support for ongoing challenges.
He describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s experience guides the plan. Practical concerns Eric addresses include career stress, caregiving strain, intimacy and communication problems, body image, codependency, and coping after loss or trauma.

Online session options
How narrative and practical approaches fit online care
Eric uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reframe the stories that shape their experience. That approach helps when someone feels stuck by past events or repeating patterns and wants clearer meaning or a different path forward. He also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and building a respectful working relationship so clients can explore issues at their own pace.He commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to spot unhelpful thought patterns and try small experiments that change behavior. Together, these approaches give both deeper perspective and practical steps for day-to-day coping. Choosing which approach to emphasize is a collaborative process - he will discuss options and tailor the mix to the person’s goals, needs, and preferences.
Online therapy with him is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video sessions work well for in-depth conversations and visual cues. Phone calls can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief support, progress updates, and tools between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep momentum between meetings.
