About Eric
Eric Katz is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Vermont with 26 years of experience. He helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. He works in English and does not work with international clients.
He focuses on practical steps people can use right away. Sessions often include learning ways to notice unhelpful thoughts, manage strong feelings, and change small daily habits that keep problems going. He uses approaches that emphasize action and skills, not just talking about problems.
Eric has worked across different settings over many years, bringing experience with codependency, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and post-traumatic stress. That background informs how he helps clients handle persistent patterns and crises alike.
His style aims to be straightforward and problem-focused. He works with people to outline clear goals and try out techniques between sessions. He encourages practical experiments that test what helps in real life rather than getting stuck in what went wrong.

Using ACT, CBT, and DBT in remote sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them, then pick actions that match their values. It can help when anger or resentment gets in the way of what matters most.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It teaches concrete strategies to challenge unhelpful thinking and to try different responses in triggering moments. This can reduce repeated patterns of anger and frustration.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These tools are useful when strong feelings escalate or when someone wants steadier coping strategies.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals can use remote work to focus on practical skills and homework that translate directly into everyday life.
