How Eric brings evidence-based methods to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small committed steps, even when strong feelings like anger or anxiety show up. It can help with repeated avoidance, frustration, and problems with motivation. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like worry, impulsivity, or substance use. It is practical and skill-based. The Gottman Method concentrates on communication patterns between partners and teaches specific strategies for repairing conflict and increasing understanding.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to see which methods fit the goals, preferences, and the problems at hand. They may combine techniques from different approaches to address anger, relationship strain, or impulse control in ways that feel workable.
