About Erick
Erick Oduor is a counsellor who uses practical, person-focused approaches to help people through difficult life moments. He holds BACP registration and brings 16 years of professional experience. Erick works in the United Kingdom and speaks English.
He focuses on common and painful problems such as family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, low self-esteem, anxiety, depression and stress. He also helps with relationship and intimacy-related concerns, anger, career questions, and the strain of parenting.
Background and approach
Additional areas he addresses include caregiving stress, blended family issues, addiction, and chronic illness or pain. Erick emphasises that clients know their own story and that strengths already exist to help with change. Sessions aim to identify those strengths and use practical steps to reduce distress and build clearer choices.
He prefers straightforward conversation and collaboration rather than clinical jargon. Therapy with Erick may draw on approaches such as acceptance and commitment work, attachment-based thinking, cognitive tools, emotionally focused ideas and a client-centred stance. These methods are used to help people manage thoughts and feelings, rebuild relationships, and cope with life transitions.
People who choose Erick can expect a supportive, goal-oriented process that respects their pace. He encourages small, sustainable steps and helps plan ways to handle setbacks. His style is calm, direct and focused on what matters most to the person seeking help.

Approaches for parenting and family concerns online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being controlled by them. It focuses on identifying values and taking small actions that matter, which can help with anxiety, low mood and parental stress.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationship patterns. It can help people understand emotional responses in close relationships and rebuild trust or connection that affects caregiving and family life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences and what has helped or not helped before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video lets people keep visual contact, phone can be easier if bandwidth is limited, live chat or messaging can suit brief check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments while keeping continuity of support.
