About Erick
Erick Oduor is a counsellor and BACP member with 16 years of professional experience. He works in the United Kingdom and helps people address family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, stress and relationship concerns.
Erick uses straightforward conversation to help people make sense of difficult situations. He treats the person in front of him as the expert on their life and draws on that knowledge to plan the work together. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on practical steps to manage feelings and day-to-day challenges.
He draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people change unhelpful thinking and notice what matters to them. Attachment-Based methods and Emotionally-Focused ideas are used when relationships and intimacy are central concerns. The emphasis is on clear techniques and simple tools people can use between sessions.
Erick has supported people through loss, parenting strain, career stress, and chronic health challenges. He also works with issues such as codependency, communication problems, addiction, and domestic violence. He aims to keep sessions direct and practical so people can try manageable changes outside therapy.
People can expect a frank, steady approach that centres their own goals. Erick asks questions, listens to the story, and works with each person to find what helps next.
Therapeutic approaches used and how online counselling can help
Erick uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. CBT involves noticing unhelpful thinking patterns and trying practical experiments to test different ways of responding. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is also part of his work and focuses on recognising difficult feelings while choosing actions that reflect personal values.He treats attachment issues with an attachment-informed stance that looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections. That can help when relationship, intimacy or parenting concerns are central. Erick aims to explain each approach in everyday terms and to use whichever method best fits the person's goals.
Finding the right approach is collaborative. Erick will discuss goals, preferences and the issues you bring, and then suggest methods to try. He checks in about what's helpful and adapts the work as therapy progresses.
