About Eric
Eric Eichler is an LPCC licensed clinician practicing in Ohio who focuses on men's wellbeing and related concerns. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, ADHD, bipolar challenges, and worries about self-esteem. Eric aims to help clients move past shame and guilt and build a more manageable future.
He takes a strengths-based, client-centered approach. Sessions prioritize what matters to each person and build on existing skills. Eric blends practical tools with creative outlets such as music, art, writing, and poetry when these fit a client's needs.
His background includes hands-on work in residential pediatric mental health and intensive in-home family therapy. That experience involved individual, group, and family settings and offered regular exposure to PTSD, adoptive and foster family dynamics, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and anxiety conditions.
Eric also taught classes to both married and single adults, focusing on skills people can use in everyday life. He emphasizes concrete steps - skill practice, behavior changes, and steady goal-setting - rather than abstract theory.
With three years of post-qualification experience as an LPCC, he combines evidence-informed methods such as cognitive behavioral techniques, dialectical behavior strategies, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and narrative-minded conversation to help people clarify values and take manageable steps forward.
How therapeutic approaches shape online care
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's own goals and pace. The therapist follows what matters most and helps people find ways to reach their personal aims. This approach helps when someone needs a supportive space to sort priorities and decisions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and trying small behavior changes to reduce distress. It works well for anxiety, depression, stress, and managing mood swings by teaching practical exercises and homework between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills are useful for intense emotions, relationship conflict, and impulse-related difficulties.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked in the past. Together they will try methods that fit the client’s needs and adjust over time based on feedback and progress.
Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what is offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, support shorter check-ins when needed, and allow some people to participate without being on camera. Ask about formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match your routine.
