About Eric

Eric Golden is a licensed professional counselor clinical (LPCC) with 13 years of experience working in New Mexico. He frames problems as parts of life to be held and moved with rather than enemies to be defeated. Eric uses a warm, patient style and invites humor and humility into the work to help people feel less alone during hard times.

He offers behavioral, emotional, and relational support for parents and individuals navigating stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, grief, addiction, anger, self-esteem concerns, ADHD, and questions of life purpose. Sessions focus on building on what already works in a person’s life and strengthening practical ways to cope with hard moments.

Eric blends approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with attachment-informed and client-centered ways of relating. He describes therapy as a collaboration where perspectives shift so feelings and relationships become easier to live with. This helps people who are managing parenting strains, family conflict, relationship concerns, or major life changes.

He has worked with children, adolescents, adults, and families since 2012 in roles as a youth and family therapist. That background shapes a style that is calm, reflective, and grounded in real-life skills. Eric aims to help clients notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values.

To start, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule based on the therapist’s availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and international clients are accepted.

How Eric’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions that align with those values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful habits and manage symptoms like anxiety or depression. Attachment-Based Therapy emphasizes how early relationships shape current connections and helps people learn new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Eric treats therapy as a collaboration and will help clients choose strategies that match their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. Together they test what helps, adjust the plan, and keep what works.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins on a work break. It also lets people practice new skills in the places they live and then discuss how those experiments go in session.
