About Eric

Eric Aldaco is a California Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with 16 years of professional experience. He draws on a faith-informed outlook and a client-centered approach to help people address issues like anger, parenting stress, relationship strains, and life changes.

Eric works from a biblical perspective and treats the person as the expert on their life. He aims to build on each client’s existing strengths rather than start from scratch. Sessions focus on practical steps clients can try between appointments.

People come to Eric for help managing anger, improving self-esteem, and navigating fatherhood or parenting challenges. He also supports those dealing with immigration-related stress, forgiveness work, and questions about life purpose. He lists multicultural concerns and men’s issues among areas he addresses.

In the therapy room he uses client-centered therapy. That means listening closely, reflecting what a person says, and shaping sessions around the client’s goals. He combines that stance with conversations about values and faith when clients want that included.

Sessions are offered in English and Spanish. He practices in California and does not accept international clients. Before booking, confirm the session formats currently offered so you know how appointments will be held.

How client-centered work adapts to online sessions

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and following the client's goals. It helps people feel heard, clarify what matters to them, and try practical changes for issues like anger, self-esteem, and relationship stress.

When faith is important to a client, he integrates biblical perspectives into conversations in a way the client prefers. That can help people align decisions and behavior with their values while addressing anger, parenting challenges, or questions about life purpose.

Finding the right way to work is part of the process. He will talk with each person about what methods feel most helpful and adjust sessions to match goals and preferences. This is a collaborative decision rather than a fixed prescription.

Confirm the session formats available before booking so you know how appointments will be held. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some formats can also be better for lower bandwidth or for people who prefer not to be on camera. Discuss practical needs and preferences during the matching steps so sessions can be planned to fit everyday life.
