About Eric

Eric Britz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 19 years of clinical experience. He works with adults coping with anger, stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship and parenting concerns. Eric also assists people facing trauma and abuse, grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related challenges.

He offers straightforward, practical therapy that focuses on what helps in daily life. Sessions use techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused work to reduce reactive patterns and manage strong feelings. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused tools are used to set goals and move forward when people feel stuck.

Eric draws on a broad background that includes art therapy and years as an addiction counselor and life coach. He has worked in clinical settings, county jails, and with people who have persistent mental health conditions. That variety informs how he adapts strategies for different situations.

In sessions he combines skill-building, problem solving, and chances to reflect on how past events affect current responses. People can expect practical steps to spot triggers, practice new reactions, and test changes between meetings. Art-based methods may be included when they help someone express thoughts that are hard to put into words.

Eric treats each person with respect and avoids labeling. He helps people set clear goals, then uses evidence-informed approaches to work toward those goals. Language used in therapy is English and services are provided from Michigan.

How CBT and Trauma-Focused Work Translate to Online Sessions

Eric uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify thoughts and behaviors that fuel anger. CBT involves noticing triggers, testing unhelpful beliefs, and practicing different responses that reduce reactivity. This approach is useful for workplace frustration, family tension, and persistent negative thinking. Trauma-focused therapy is used when past harm continues to shape emotional reactions. It helps people recognize how earlier events affect their current responses and develops strategies to reduce overwhelm and reactivity. Motivational interviewing may be included to clear mixed feelings and strengthen commitment to change. Finding the right mix of approaches happens together. The therapist and client discuss goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps. That collaborative process guides whether sessions emphasize skills practice, trauma processing, or motivational work. Confirm the exact online session formats before booking. The therapist’s biography does not list specific formats here, so ask which options are available. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can work on skills between appointments.
