About Eric
Eric Tillman, LPC, helps people facing anxiety, depression, stress, addiction, and codependency find clearer ways forward. He works with adults who are trying to manage intense emotions, heal from past trauma, or handle major life changes. His approach aims to make therapy feel practical and understandable for someone juggling work and family life.
He takes a straightforward, compassionate style in sessions. Conversations focus on what matters most to the client right now. He listens for patterns that keep problems repeating and helps people try new behaviors that change those patterns.
Eric uses several approaches to match what a person needs. He often draws on client-centered methods to make space for a person's story. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy show up in his work to help with emotion regulation and stress. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about making a change. These tools are combined in ways that fit each person's goals and pace.
Eric has 10 years of experience as a licensed professional counselor in Pennsylvania. He emphasizes plain language, practical steps, and steady support so people can build better daily habits and healthier relationships.
How these approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to you. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist follow your lead and help you clarify goals and priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses clear exercises to change unhelpful patterns; this can be used to address anxiety, depression, and some addictive behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness in simple, practiceable steps that many people find useful for intense emotions and relationship stress.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Eric will work collaboratively to figure out which methods match your goals and preferences. He often blends techniques so the work fits your needs and pace rather than using a single fixed method.
Confirm session options before booking because specific formats are not listed in the profile. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports using worksheets, behavioral homework, and guided mindfulness practices between sessions so progress can continue outside the appointment time.
