About Eric
Eric Britz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who helps people facing anxiety, stress, addiction, and other life challenges. He brings 19 years of clinical experience to sessions and aims to make the first steps feel manageable for someone who is worried or overwhelmed. He favors clear, straightforward conversation.
Sessions focus on practical steps a person can take between meetings. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and habits, and Trauma-Focused Therapy when past hurts are part of the problem.
Background and approach
Eric also draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to meet people where they are and to support their own goals. That means listening, reflecting what matters to the client, and helping them find motivation for change without pressure. He has worked in addiction counseling, group settings, and with people involved in the court and jail systems.
People can expect an approach that mixes talking, skill-building, and when helpful, expressive or art-based methods. He has supported concerns such as depression, grief, parenting strain, bipolar mood issues, ADHD, and process addictions including gambling and pornography use. Eric describes his role as walking alongside people as they take the next steps.
His style aims to be respectful and direct, helping clients try small, practical changes and notice what works for them.
How Eric’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person at the center of the work, with the therapist listening closely and reflecting what matters most so the client can set their own goals. This approach helps people who are unsure where to start or who need steady support while they make changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to anxiety and mood problems, and then testing small changes to see what helps. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, depression, and habits tied to addiction or mood shifts.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Eric works together with each client to decide which methods to prioritize based on their goals, history, and what feels doable. That collaboration is intended to make therapy practical and personally relevant rather than following a fixed script.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is good for a full session with visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth or camera use is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reminders or brief reflections between sessions. These options aim to make it easier to attend sessions and keep momentum between meetings.
