Eric Thacker
Together, we work to uncover the core beliefs shaping your experiences, helping you build a stronger foundation for emotional well-being and personal growth
Welcome, I’m Eric.
With a passion for supporting children, adolescents, and families, I am committed to helping individuals navigate life’s challenges and strengthen their emotional well-being. Through a holistic and personalized approach, I aim to empower clients to identify their strengths, build healthy relationships, and achieve meaningful goals at their own pace.
My background & approach
Are you or your child feeling overwhelmed by life’s challenges—struggling with anxiety, emotional outbursts, or family stress? It can often feel like you're navigating unfamiliar terrain without a clear path forward. Sometimes, having someone to walk alongside you can make all the difference.
With extensive experience in child, adolescent, and family counseling, I specialize in helping families strengthen their connections, navigate emotional difficulties, and create lasting change. My approach is holistic and empowering—focusing not just on symptoms, but on the whole person and the relationships that shape us.
Using a combination of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and family systems techniques, I work collaboratively with clients to identify strengths, set achievable goals, and build the skills needed for long-term success. Whether I’m supporting a child through big feelings or helping parents and children communicate more effectively, my goal is to create a safe, supportive space where growth can thrive.
Together, we can work toward building emotional resilience, healthy relationships, and a renewed sense of balance and confidence—for your child and your family.
