About Eric
Eric Eichler is an Ohio LPCC with three years of counseling experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, family concerns, anger, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting, self esteem, depression, coping with life changes, coaching, and ADHD. He works with adult clients in English and does not accept international clients.
He has provided intensive in-home family therapy and worked for several years in a residential pediatric mental health hospital. In that setting he offered individual, group, and family support while working with people facing PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and anxiety. He has experience with adoptive, foster, and blended family situations and has taught classes to married and single adults.
Eric uses a strength-based frame to help people move forward from past hurts. He aims to reduce shame and guilt and to build on what clients already do well. He also incorporates creative outlets such as music, art, writing, and poetry when these are helpful to a person’s process.
His main clinical approaches include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Those methods are used to address thinking patterns, emotion regulation, and practical skills for everyday life.
Sessions focus on clear goals and practical strategies. People can expect collaborative work on communication, boundaries, coping skills, and parenting concerns. To begin, the site directs users to the online therapy options and a short matching questionnaire before scheduling a first session.
How sessions work
How his methods translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to a person's concerns without heavy direction. The therapist follows the client's lead, clarifies what matters most, and helps people weigh their options for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to test new ways of thinking and behaving. That approach is often useful for anxiety, depression, and day-to-day coping skills.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to try based on goals and preferences. Sessions may mix listening, skill practice, and creative outlets such as music or writing when those help move a goal forward.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking by using the See online therapy options button and completing the short matching questionnaire. That process leads to scheduling a first session. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - shorter check-ins, fewer travel constraints, and easier scheduling around work or parenting commitments are common practical benefits to discuss when arranging care.
