About Eric

Eric Eichler is an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) practicing in Ohio with three years of experience. He lists stress, anxiety, family concerns, anger, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting, self-esteem, depression, ADHD, grief, trauma and abuse, and coping with life changes among the areas he works with. Eric’s first paragraph should give a clear sense of who he is and what people bring to him for help.

He previously provided intensive in-home family therapy for a year. He also worked for eight years in a residential pediatric mental health hospital, offering individual, group, and family therapy. That work included supporting people dealing with PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and many adoptive, foster, and blended family situations.

Eric describes a strength-based style. He focuses on building toward the future and helping people move on from past problems. He uses expressive outlets when helpful, such as music, art, writing, and poetry, as ways to process feelings.

His clinical approach includes client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior therapy skills, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing. These methods are used to address emotion regulation, patterns from family of origin, and everyday coping skills.

Sessions tend to include practical skills, reflective conversation, and occasional creative exercises. He has taught classes for married and single individuals in the past, which informs a practical, instructional side to his work.

People seeking help for family of origin issues, parenting strain, or mood and anxiety symptoms will find a counselor who leans on skills-based methods and expressive tools. Before scheduling, confirm the current session formats and logistics.

How his approaches translate to remote work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the person. It aims to clarify values and goals so people can make choices that fit their life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down how thoughts, behaviors, and feelings link together and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for managing intense feelings and relationship conflicts.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Eric will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That may mean trying skill-based CBT exercises, practicing DBT techniques, or using client-centered conversation and creative outlets like writing or music during sessions.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not specify which remote options are offered. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and reduce travel time. Discuss practical preferences and constraints with the therapist when scheduling so sessions can be arranged to fit everyday life.
