About Eric
Eric Britz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Michigan with 19 years of experience. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting struggles, anger, bipolar challenges, ADHD, and related issues.
He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered and trauma-focused approaches. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and small behavior changes people can try between meetings. He also draws on motivational interviewing, solution-focused methods, and expressive art techniques when they fit a person's goals.
Eric has provided individual and group therapy and has experience in addiction counseling and work in court and county jail settings. That background informs practical strategies for coping and relapse prevention for substance and process addictions.
In sessions he helps people talk through current problems, set concrete goals, and practice new ways of responding to stress and triggers. He uses short, structured exercises and homework to test what works in daily life.
People who want straightforward, skills-based work will find the approach focused on behavior change and problem solving. He encourages realistic steps toward managing symptoms and making decisions about relationships, parenting, or recovery.
Before booking, readers should confirm which session formats are available for scheduling and whether art-based work is of interest. The therapist offers services in English and works within Michigan.
How evidence-based approaches are used in online sessions
Eric often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns. CBT breaks problems into small parts and tests concrete changes, which can suit worries, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on what the person brings to sessions and helps them set personal goals. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone is weighing change, like reducing substance use or starting a recovery plan; it helps clarify reasons for change and builds motivation. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the person's situation. That collaborative process means approaches can shift over time based on what is helpful. Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. These practical benefits help people keep consistent momentum with skill practice and behavioral experiments without promising a particular service.Areas of expertise
