Couples Therapy

$95

Couples fight. Couples disagree. Couples mistreat each other. Well, we are two different people. Yes, how we talk to each other matters, but I believe it is a symptom more than the cause. The real issues we find are more to do with misunderstanding and false assumptions. I am trained in Gottman Couples Therapy, Attachment Theory and Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy to find healthier, emotional connection, improve dynamics, and achieve the support and love we need and deserve.

Individual Therapy

$85

Everyone deserves to be heard, to be valued, and to be understood. I work to discover: What are your needs? Where are you stuck? And how can I support you? I use a variety of interventions such as cognitive-behavioral, emotion-focused, psychoanalysis, and neuropsychology. Research reports the therapeutic relationship is responsible for more than 82% of successful clinical outcomes. Basically, choosing your therapist matters. Let’s achieve meaningful, lasting change together.

Teen Therapy

$85

I work with teens to help understand and regulate emotions, better communicate, resolve conflicts, improve relationships, and learn skills for the rest of their lives. My goal is to build a caring and safe space for them to feel heard and work together to create positive change. Art Therapy can be a magical door to unlock feelings and open their perspective.

Meet the therapist

Hi, I’m Eric—a therapist specializing in individuals, couples, and teens. I am dedicated to helping people find meaning, connection, and growth in their lives and relationships. I know that reaching out can feel intimidating, so my goal is to provide a warm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel heard and supported. Using methods like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Attachment Theory (AT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), EMDR, and Gottman Therapy for Couples,

I work with you on the issues that matter most, whether it’s healing past trauma, exploring unhealthy patterns, improving relationships, or navigating life’s challenges. Problems can become entangled, which makes them really hard to manage and resolve. And when we take notice, we see how so many aspects and relationships in our lives are affected. I want to learn who you are, listen to your story, and understand what you need from this process. Gaining insight and learning effective skills can help you handle almost anything that life throws at you. Getting started can seem hard, but always remember: Every wonderful journey begins with the first step.

Let's work to break through some of your heaviest challenges and allow you to gain valuable insight. Therapy can be a really good thing. Let's get started!!
