How Eric’s Approaches Work for Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person’s own goals and timing. In practice this means the therapist listens closely and helps shape sessions around what matters most to the client, whether that is coping with separation, managing moods, or handling family stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that cause distress and practicing alternatives. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, addiction patterns, and day-to-day problem solving.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That may mean trying CBT exercises, trauma-focused techniques, or client-centered conversations and adjusting over time.

If you’re considering online therapy, confirm which session options are available before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Discuss scheduling preferences and any practical needs with the therapist so sessions can be arranged to fit your life.
