Life Happens! Sometimes it helps to have compassionate and non-judgmental support as you work through life issues and transitions. I offer a client centered and holistic therapeutic approach that aims to bring to light the associations between: nutrition/diet; stress; family history; support systems & resources; life experiences; environment; and issues related to current and/or historical oppression; and how YOUR body, mind, and spirit have been reacting. I believe in encouraging and empowering my clients towards achieving the results they seek. I help clients identify and utilize their strengths and to identify and release unhealthy practices or defense mechanisms.

One doesn't need a mental health diagnosis to benefit from outside support with such themes as: stress reduction, identity development, joy and fulfillment, and other areas that you choose to shift.
My practice leans toward supporting individuals who are feeling stuck, struggling in relationships, and/or needing a fresh approach to living life in such a way that you feel you have more control over your experience. We’ll work to understand identity and the roles that it plays, make shifts in internal and external communication habits, incorporate personal values in every-day living, cultivate patience, and treat each day as if you are living on purpose.

Stress, anxiety, and unhappiness don't need to be your normal.
Are life transitions or stress making you feel anxious, depressed or overwhelmed? Are habits like perfectionism, substance use, or binge eating causing more problems than they're solving? Therapy can help you understand why you do what you do, and bring balance to your life by helping you prioritize goals and activities that make you feel fulfilled. If you don't know where to start, if change makes you nervous, or if you just want nonjudgemental support and guidance, I'm here to guide you in taking steps toward a life where you feel like you're thriving, not just surviving.

I specialize in working with men and their partners struggling with depression, anxiety, work and life stress, relationships and addictions.
Hi, I’m Eric. Depression and life’s stress can leave us feeling overwhelmed, hopeless and scared. Someone who cares about doing their best for their loved ones and tuning in to their needs can still find themselves feeling sad, overwhelmed or worn out. Sometimes, we work so hard trying to do the right thing we can almost forget who we are or why we are doing all this. If you are here, that is a sign you are open to make a change. You are primed to do something good for yourself. You are ready to care for the caregiver that works so hard for everyone else. Most of all, you are set to get onto a path you can feel proud of.

While I work with a wide range of adult clients, most often I work with clients who are struggling through stress, depression, traumatic experiences and anxiety.
Counseling is a space where we focus with intensity and grace on the areas of life that feel chaotic or stagnant. It’s a space to bring understanding to parts that have remained silent or provide comfort to the internal voices that have needed to be too loud. It’s a space to become more connected and integrated, more whole.

I work with people to learn skills to manage stress, anxiety, panic, depressive, and trauma symptoms and to explore difficult past experiences that may be impacting them, so that they can be more present in their lives, act in ways that match what is important to them, and to start building the life they want to live for themselves.

For those dealing with stress-related conditions, I frequently use specialized tools such as neurofeedback as part of an effective treatment plan.
I work with adults striving to respond with integrity and effectiveness to many life issues--particularly related to work, career, relationship, and mid-life challenges. My clients include adults dealing with depression, anxiety, performance impairment, stress-related conditions, as well as those choosing to "raise their game." Regardless of their reason for seeking therapy, many of my clients bring important resources rooted in their personal journey of faith or search for meaning. If spiritual aspects of your life are important, I invite you to share that in our work together.

Do you feel overstimulated by others' energy throughout your day or week? You may have noticed that you have a stronger emotional response than those close to you (both positive & negative). Or maybe, you find yourself so focused on your responsibilities that you struggle to enjoy the journey. We often find ourselves isolating or masking just to cope with impossible feelings. Through counseling, you can face these challenges and decrease the stress, anxiety, and even relationship bumps that you might be experiencing.

My approach focuses on the mind and the interconnectedness of the body to release stress, anxiety, and trauma and move towards living the life you desire.
Through collaboration and compassion, I support clients who are often stuck inside their own heads. I practice through a trauma-informed intersectional lens, because I understand the pressures of systems, culture, and daily interactions. Through understanding your story we work together to get of our heads, and express the grief, imposter syndrome, anger, or other thoughts that are taking up so much time and energy from you.

You are feeling stuck, experiencing stress, depression, or anxiety, or simply overwhelmed with life. You feel bad about yourself, and you’re constantly depleted of energy. Your relationships with people who are important to you - such as your partner, children, other family members, or friends - are suffering, and you’re not able to assert the boundaries you need, to put yourself first, or to feel happy or in control. Perhaps you’re overwhelmed with stress related to identities that are important to you, such as your sexual identity, gender or gender identity, race, ethnicity, or religion. You know there must be another way.

Maybe you've struggled with childhood issues for some time. Then, jobs and relationships that (you thought) promised satisfaction fall short: divorce, affairs, or even just the hell of online dating might have led to a drinking problem, binge eating, or overwhelming burnout. You might work in a demanding field, like medicine, tech, or a family business. Something I hear a lot from clients when they come into therapy is that they feel like it's impossible for them to feel better: there's a certainty that the overwhelm and stress and anxiety will never go away. What I want you to know is this: it's not true. You can find relief.
