About Eric
Eric Frasch is a licensed mental health counselor in New York. He has five years of clinical experience helping people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, and depression. He aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and straightforward.
He treats people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Sessions focus on the concerns you bring, and he adapts conversation and plans to fit each person's needs. That means practical goals and clear next steps rather than long lists of jargon.
Background and approach
Eric draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address problems like panic, low mood, and the fallout from traumatic events. He also helps people handle major life shifts such as separation, caregiving strain, or midlife questions about purpose. He listens for patterns around control, guilt, isolation, and financial stress to shape work that matters day to day.
Many people come for help with addictions, problems communicating, or feelings of shame and loneliness. He supports work on forgiveness, self-love, and rebuilding trust in oneself. Eric emphasizes steady progress and real-world coping skills people can use between sessions.
Sessions are offered in English and occur through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. If someone wants to begin, they complete a short questionnaire and then schedule sessions to match the therapist's availability.
How evidence-based approaches work online
Eric uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on helping people manage symptoms and build skills. One approach emphasizes practical coping strategies for anxiety and depression - it teaches breathing, thought checking, and activity planning to reduce day-to-day distress. Another approach addresses trauma by helping people process difficult memories in small, manageable steps while teaching grounding and safety skills to reduce overwhelming reactions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try a method, and adjust based on what works. This shared decision-making helps match techniques to your needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online formats make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls let you keep visual connection and read nonverbal cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good short check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging offer quick, flexible ways to touch base between sessions or when a written format feels easier. These options support continuity of care and let people receive help from wherever works best for their schedule.
