Hi Friend,
This is a little about me. First and foremost I am a regular and down-to-earth guy. At times Counseling professionals and other helping professionals can can get reputations to "high and mighty", "up on a pedestal", or 'holier than thou".
I am a regular 40 year old man who is balding and slightly overweight. I have made mistakes in my life as I'm sure you have. I do not have a magic wand to make your life better in a hurry. What I do have is an open ear, a caring heart, a good education, and about 15 years in counseling a wide variety of people and issues.
Of these the most common issues I have helped others with are overcoming symptoms of depression, anxiety, addiction, and common family issues. As I mentioned earlier there is no magic to what I do but we can work toward goals and talk it out.

By far the best counselor I’ve ever had and I’ve gone through a lot in my life. Very easy to talk to and each session feels like you’re talking to a friend. Along with that he has professional insight to help you grow and develop in life. Couldn’t recommend him more!

Before I started my journey with Faithful Counseling, I was on the fence with whom they would provide for me. Thank God Eric reached out to me and through his sessions, I already feel God’s healing is working in me and I pray for anyone looking to get therapy with a biblical perspective, you can count on Eric to help you.
