About Erik

Erik Buskard is a Maine-based licensed clinician with 9 years of professional experience who supports people navigating stress, anxiety, relationship and family challenges, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem struggles, life transitions, and ADHD. He holds the LCPC credential - Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor - and brings a calm, collaborative presence to each session. Erik emphasizes understanding the whole person and meets clients where they are to explore patterns, clarify goals, and build practical skills for coping and growth.

He creates an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and emotions can be shared honestly, and he encourages clients to take the courageous first steps toward a more fulfilling life. Whether addressing conflict in relationships, managing everyday stress, or working through past trauma, Erik works alongside clients to identify strengths and develop sustainable strategies that fit their lives.

Erik aims to empower people to make meaningful changes at a pace that feels right for them. His approach blends empathy with practical tools so clients feel supported while learning new ways to handle challenges and move toward greater well-being.

Approaches and Online Care

Erik commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide his work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people improve connection and trust in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy and respect, giving clients space to lead conversations while the therapist reflects and supports their self-discovery. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical techniques to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle everyday challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Erik collaborates with each client to tailor methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress unfolds so the work feels relevant and effective.

Online therapy formats - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access licensed professionals from wherever you are. These options offer flexibility in scheduling, allow sessions to fit into busy lives, and provide multiple ways to stay connected between meetings, helping clients maintain momentum in their work.
