Eric Eichler , LPCC

Eric Eichler is an LPCC based in Ohio who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and parenting challenges. He works with people dealing with bipolar symptoms, ADHD, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue. Eric aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for everyday life.

He favors approaches that focus on present problems and workable skills. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs most, whether that is learning new coping skills or talking through painful memories. Eric draws on cognitive behavioral techniques alongside client-centered and mindfulness methods to help people manage thoughts, feelings, and behavior.

His background includes several years in intensive in-home family work and experience providing individual, group, and family therapy in a residential pediatric medical hospital. That work exposed him to trauma, PTSD, adoption and foster care issues, and a wide range of mood and attention disorders. Those experiences inform a practical style that values real-life strategies.

Eric uses straightforward language and encourages self-expression through music, art, writing, or poetry when helpful. He focuses on strengths and helps people move forward from shame and guilt toward clearer goals. Conversations are collaborative and paced to each person’s comfort.

People who choose him can expect help with communication problems, boundary and control issues, body image and eating concerns, commitment and intimacy struggles, and the stress of life transitions. Eric holds an Ohio Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor credential (LPCC).

Practical therapy methods that work online

Eric often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that can improve mood and reduce anxiety. CBT is task-oriented and useful for stress, worry, mood shifts, and ADHD-related coping strategies.

He also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the conversation on the person in front of him. This approach emphasizes listening, empathy, and building a collaborative plan that matches personal goals and values.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. He will talk through goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adjust methods as progress is made. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video calls work well for in-depth conversations and skill practice, phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can support shorter check-ins or homework between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and maintain momentum between visits.
