About

About Eric

Eric Troy is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 15 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, and parenting concerns. He works with adults seeking clearer direction, steadier mood, and better coping skills. He speaks English and Romanian and practices from Florida where he built much of his clinical experience.

Clients can expect a practical, person-focused approach. Eric draws on Client-Centered methods to listen closely and create a space where concerns can be named without judgment.

Background and approach

He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test more constructive beliefs in day-to-day life. Eric also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when people need tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Narrative and Solution-Focused techniques help people reframe difficult stories and set achievable goals.

He adapts each session to what the person brings that day rather than following a rigid script. His background includes a master’s degree in psychology with a specialty in mental health counseling and additional graduate study in industrial and organizational psychology. He is a Florida LMHC and has supervised other clinicians in practice settings.

That mix of clinical training and supervisory work informs his practical, outcome-minded style. Sessions cover a broad range of issues including self-esteem, career decisions, relationship patterns, trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, and many parenting concerns. Eric emphasizes small, manageable steps so progress feels real and sustainable.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and understanding the person’s experience. Online sessions let the therapist focus on what matters most to the client and respond in ways that feel respectful and grounded. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets specific thoughts and behaviors with practical exercises; this works well online because homework, worksheets, and real-life experiments are easy to assign and review between sessions.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete skills for managing intense emotions and coping with stress. Teaching these skills over video or text allows clients to practice tools right after they learn them and report back on what helped. The therapist and client collaborate to test which method fits best, and they adjust the plan as goals and needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a deeper connection is needed. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is low or a simple check-in is preferred. Live chat and text-based messaging can be used for brief updates, coaching-style prompts, or between-session check-ins that keep momentum going. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into daily life while trying different therapeutic approaches.
