works with individuals as well as couples and families.
Eric
helps people understand and improve their situation from a solution-focused,
strength-based and systems perspective. With heightened awareness, Eric
empowers clients to address depression, anxiety, trauma, stress, marriage and
family concerns, and parenting challenges.
Eric
has a particular passion for families. He enjoys working with entire families as well
as couples who are trying to improve their relationship for the betterment of their
family. Eric aims to assist clients in identifying current verbal and physical
behaviors within their relationships. Patterns are hard to change when consequences
remain unseen or unchallenged. Eric
relies upon advanced education, personal experience, and a calm strength to
help establish healthy interactions.
Eric
believes relationships are delicate, nuanced, and ever-evolving with each stage
of life. The couple you are with a new baby and responsibilities is not the
couple you were when you first met. The spouse
you are with your current spouse is not the same as who you were with your
ex. Families are continually faced with
new challenges from job change, financial stress, health issues, and the
ever-evolving stages of child development from toddlers to teen.
Eric
is trained and experienced in unique family challenges such as mental health,
domestic violence, substance use, defiant children, and multicultural issues. He is knowledgeable in supporting “blended
blended” families where families from diverse cultures combine. Eric has
hands on experience as a husband, father, and stepfather. Eric has learned
what it takes to make families work!
As
an Air Force veteran, Eric personally understands the unique difficulties
members and their families may encounter facing life’s challenges within the
military culture and its demands. He is able to confidentially guide
military families and individuals through problems with forethought and understanding.
Eric
is committed to providing a welcoming, empathetic, and safe environment
conducive to the actualization of client-set goals toward living a happier,
healthier life.
