Erick often addresses issues tied to relationships and family history, including attachment, abandonment, and communication problems. He also supports people dealing with substance concerns, domestic violence, caregiver stress, and changes like divorce or blended family dynamics. Codependency and body image are among the focused topics he can help clients talk through.
His style mixes client-centered listening with active strategies from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches. Erick also draws on existential questions and motivational interviewing to help clarify values and find motivation for change. He aims to create a straightforward, respectful space where people can try things that feel manageable.
Erick works in Texas and conducts sessions in English. He encourages prospective clients to reach out, ask questions, and take the first step toward figuring out whether his approach fits their needs.
How Erick's approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy centers on listening and understanding each person's story. Online sessions using this approach focus on creating space to talk, reflect, and identify personal strengths that support change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and try concrete behavioral experiments. In an online setting CBT often includes short homework, tracking patterns between sessions, and practicing new skills during the week.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clear communication. Delivered over remote sessions, DBT-style work can teach practical tools that are practiced in everyday life and reviewed with the therapist.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erick collaborates with each person to identify which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. He will adjust methods as therapy progresses so the plan fits the person rather than forcing one style.
