How Eric’s Approaches Work Online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values, even when difficult thoughts or feelings show up. ACT can be useful for anger, anxiety, and deciding what matters most in relationships.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and practicing new behaviors. Online CBT sessions often include concrete exercises and homework to try between meetings, which helps make progress steady and measurable.

Client-Centered Therapy centers on being heard and understood so people can explore concerns at their own pace. This approach supports difficult conversations about relationships, family of origin issues, and forgiveness by keeping the focus on the person’s experience.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Eric will collaborate with each person to choose or blend methods based on goals, preferences, and what shows progress. That process usually starts with a conversation about your priorities and a plan to try practical steps.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Ask what online options are currently offered and choose what fits your life. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so people can focus on the work itself.
