Written on Jan 24, 2025 after therapy with Eric for 2 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, and adhd

Eric is a great, non-judgmental listener. I told him up front I needed someone to listen and give me guidance, not just agree with everything I say. He’s been objective and given advice how to handle a difficult family dynamic. He’s helping me understand that it’s not being mean or selfish, but that boundaries are necessary with a narcissistic parent and it’s ok to do. I love that he has such a wide background of experience and has handled some very difficult cases. His knowledge is vast.

Eric is a great therapist who listens to what I have to say and gives useful feedback. I would recommend him because I feel comfortable talking to him casually and even when it comes to talking about deeper topics he is a great listener.

Eric is a wonderful listener and has really been able to help me unpack and understand a lot of things that I have been struggling with. He’s really been extremely helpful and supportive while I’ve been navigating through some really difficult times.

Written on Oct 05, 2023 after therapy with Eric for 3 months on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues

He was an excellent listener and provided great guidance to me. He eased my way into talking about myself and to sessions in general with simple conversations before going into deeper topics. He was always encouraging for me to share any concerns I had, or things I wanted to voice. He was ready to give me techniques or share information to help me with certain issues like body image, relationships, and my emotions with turning to positives rather than negatives. In the future I would reach out to teen counseling and Eric.

Eric had great techniques to help me cope with and move pass many of the issues that I was facing. He helped me to understand and identify accomplishments that I achieved and had dismissed instead of acknowledging and validating them. I was also able to trust the process and techniques of therapy, to identify ways to make positive changes in my daily life that helped me to work through any issues, big or small, that I may be confronted with going forward. He is extremely understanding and easy to talk to.

After a 15 year gap in therapy I was skeptical about returning to the process. Eric has been very welcoming and helps me feel validated in my concerns. Eric is engaged and gives good resources for my specific needs. I love the encouragement and sense of understanding Eric gives as a therapist.

He listens well and offers sage advice.

Written on Aug 10, 2022 after therapy with Eric for 3 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, lgbt, trauma and abuse, eating disorders, self esteem, and coping with life changes

Therapy is a bit of challenge for me, as I've had some real bad therapists in the past. I may not always know how to keep a session forward or not even know where to go next/what to work on next, but Eric is always very sweet and helps me every step of the way. I've already noticed an improvement with my own behavior and symptoms, and he's given me great advice and strategies to utilize when I need them. He's kind, considerate, and LGBTQ+ friendly, which was a priority for me.

For a kind therapist with a big heart and wise words, you can't go wrong with Eric. :D

Eric is a fantastic therapist and helps tremendously in peeling back layers of concern and helping deal with anxiety. Within a few sessions, I felt a huge improvement in myself and the way I look at things around me. I would recommend working with Eric any day. He is always available and checks in regularly.
