About Eric
Eric Eichler is an Ohio LPCC with three years of post-licensure experience. He focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, parenting, and ADHD among other areas. He also addresses grief, intimacy-related issues, bipolar symptoms, anger, compassion fatigue, and coaching needs.
He previously worked in intensive in-home family therapy and spent years providing individual, group, and family therapy in a residential pediatric mental health hospital. That work involved supporting people with PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, and a range of family situations including adoptive, foster, and blended families. He led classes for married and single people in the past.
His practice emphasizes practical skills and strengths. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as one of his main approaches, alongside client-centered methods and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools. He also draws on mindfulness, motivational interviewing, narrative techniques, and expressive outlets like music, art, writing, and poetry.
In sessions he helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and patterns, then tries different ways of responding. He aims to reduce shame and guilt while building on a person’s existing strengths. Work can include skill practice, brief experiments between sessions, and creative expression when that fits.
Anyone considering work with him should confirm current session options before booking. He offers services in English and his credential is LPCC in Ohio.
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and helping people clarify what matters to them. Online sessions using this approach tend to concentrate on questions, reflection, and letting the client lead the topic while the therapist responds to what comes up.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. In remote sessions that can mean tracking thoughts, setting small behavioral experiments between appointments, and reviewing what changed in brief, structured ways.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for managing emotions and improving relationships. Online work can include coaching on mindfulness, distress tolerance, and communication skills, with practical homework to practice during the week.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, current struggles, and preferences, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are expected; technique and pace can change based on what helps most.
Confirm current session formats before booking, since the profile does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments around work, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Ask about the session length and how homework or between-session exercises are shared when you complete the matching questionnaire.
