Eric Alcala
Are you looking for concrete tools and continuity in your therapy sessions? My focus is on progress from session to session so you feel confident in yourself and relationships. I am a licensed clinical social worker with years of helping others. Worrying about the past and future is overwhelming and exhausting. Together we'll explore your thoughts, emotions, and relationships. Therapy is a place for you to share who you are. I provide a caring, structured, and insightful approach that leads to real progress.
​
I am honored to help others manage trauma, anxiety, panic, and depression. EMDR and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy are my main approaches. In our first sessions, we'll discuss your story and goals to find the right plan for you. Follow up sessions involve reframing thoughts, reinforcing healthy behaviors, and practicing stabilization techniques.
​
What is most important in the therapy process is that you feel comfortable with your therapist. As someone that has been a client, I know that a therapeutic relationship can have a positive impact.
