More about Eric

Hello, my name is Eric Billig, LMFT, and thanks for taking the time to visit my page. What makes me different from many other therapists is my unique approach to therapy, which includes connecting mental interventions to physiological systems. This is called a neuro-cognitive model. I have over 20 years of experience in treating mental health and my own self-analysis has brought me to this knowledge. Our conscious mind is run by our unconscious drives, our unconscious drives are programmed from our daily behaviors and thoughts. I provide foundational information on how your psyche works and tools to rewire outcomes you wish to achieve. This approach is changing the field of addiction therapy, trauma, anxiety, and depression. It will empower you and help you see things you have never known before. I look forward to helping you achieve your health, freedom, and desires.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.

Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
