About Erick

Erick Oduor is a counsellor with 16 years of experience working in the United Kingdom. He draws on person-focused methods to help people facing anger, family conflict, grief and stress. Erick writes simply and directly, and aims to make talking about hard things feel manageable.

He believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths into the room. Sessions focus on small, practical steps as well as talking through feelings and patterns that get in the way. Erick encourages curiosity about thoughts, habits and relationships rather than blame.

His work includes helping people cope with trauma, abuse and loss, and rebuild confidence after difficult experiences. He also supports those dealing with anxiety, low mood, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and career or life changes. Parenting strain, caregiver stress and problems linked to addiction or domestic violence are also within his experience.

Erick uses a mix of approaches that include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas. These methods are used to notice unhelpful thinking, shift behaviours and strengthen relationships over time. The aim is steady progress, not sudden fixes.

He holds BACP registration, which reflects practice within the UK framework. Erick works in English and welcomes people from different countries. To begin, readers can choose the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule according to availability.

How therapy approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and then make choices that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, anger and life transitions because it focuses on doing meaningful things even when feelings are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and actions keep problems going and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety and low mood. It suits issues like stress, depression and unhelpful behaviour patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current closeness and conflict and can help with relationship and intimacy-related concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide what methods fit their goals and preferences. That might mean starting with practical CBT exercises, adding ACT techniques for values-driven change, or using attachment ideas to repair relationship patterns. Decisions are made together and can change as work progresses.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and offer shorter check-ins when needed. It can also allow people to use quieter surroundings, turn off the camera for less demanding sessions, or choose times that suit work or caregiving commitments. Registered or accredited professionals generally adapt tasks and exercises so they work well across different ways of meeting.
