About Eric

Eric Katz is a licensed social worker practicing in New York and Vermont with 26 years of clinical experience. He holds LCSW and LICSW credentials - Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) - which reflect advanced training and state licensure to provide psychotherapy.

He works with adults facing stress and anxiety, relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression, and he also addresses related concerns such as codependency, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and post-traumatic stress. His approach emphasizes creating an open, nonjudgmental atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be expressed freely and explored collaboratively.

Eric focuses on helping clients take the first steps toward change by offering practical strategies and supportive guidance tailored to each person’s circumstances. He recognizes that beginning therapy takes courage and affirms that choosing to seek help is an important move toward greater well-being. Prospective clients can expect a steady, respectful therapeutic partnership that prioritizes their goals and preferences throughout the process.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care

Eric Katz uses proven therapeutic methods adapted for online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts and feelings arise, making it useful for stress, anxiety, and patterns of avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, obsessive-compulsive concerns, and anger. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers practical skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can be particularly helpful for intense emotions and interpersonal difficulties.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Eric collaborates with each client to determine which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences. He tailors techniques and pacing based on what works for the individual and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Eric includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care more accessible and convenient. These options allow clients to connect from their own environments, reduce travel time, and fit sessions into busy schedules while working with licensed professionals who adapt evidence-based practices to remote formats.
