About Eric

Eric Troy is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with 15 years of experience. He works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting, and other life changes. He also supports people facing grief, addictions, trauma and abuse, mood concerns, and workplace or career stress.

He studied psychology and sociology at the bachelor level, completed a master’s degree in Psychology with a specialty in Mental Health Counseling, and holds a doctoral degree in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. After internship work he obtained his Florida LMHC and has practiced in South Florida. That regional experience shaped his work with people from many cultural backgrounds.

In sessions he uses client-centered methods alongside cognitive and behavioral techniques. He also draws on narrative and solution-focused ideas and teaches skills from dialectical behavior approaches when helpful. He adapts methods to the issues people bring rather than following a fixed script.

Clients can expect straightforward problem-focused work when they want it, such as coping strategies for anxiety or behavioral steps for motivation and mood. He also offers space for longer personal reflection when the goal is to look at patterns coming from early family or attachment experiences.

Practical concerns like parenting stress, relationship conflict, communication problems, and career transitions are common topics he addresses. Eric speaks English and Romanian and works with adults seeking help for these kinds of life and family-related struggles.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own perspective and strengths. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and helps the person name goals and next steps. This approach is useful for people who want support that respects their experience and pace.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. It teaches concrete skills for managing anxiety, mood, and motivation with practical exercises between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skill training in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger, relationship strain, and strong emotional reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, and then adjust methods together. That collaborative decision makes sessions more focused and relevant to everyday life.

Session formats are not listed here, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow shorter check-ins during a work break, or reduce travel time. If a client prefers to practice skills visually, video can help; if they need a lower-bandwidth option, other arrangements may be possible. Ask about specific formats when you schedule to match the way you want to work.
