About Erick

Erick Oduor is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 16 years of professional experience. He works with people facing family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression, stress and anxiety. Erick helps clients who are struggling with relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting strains, anger and career concerns.

He uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. In sessions he focuses on emotions, patterns and the ways people relate to themselves and others. Erick encourages clients to name difficult feelings and notice patterns that get in the way of change.

Sessions involve straightforward conversation and practical steps. Topics often include communication problems, codependency, commitment worries and coping after separation. He also works with people dealing with chronic illness, caregiver stress, substance misuse and domestic violence related concerns.

Erick treats issues linked to attachment, abandonment and personality-related difficulties such as avoidant or dependent tendencies. He helps people consider boundaries, control issues and healthy ways to connect with others. His approach combines talking, skills practice and reflection to help people manage immediate problems and learn new ways of responding.

Clients can expect a collaborative relationship where their own experience guides the work. Erick accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. If someone is ready to take a first step, he invites them to complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How Erick adapts EFT and other approaches for online work

Erick commonly draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people identify and name emotional patterns that affect relationships and self-understanding. EFT focuses on emotions and the way people respond to one another, which can be useful for relationship and intimacy-related struggles. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help people notice difficult thoughts and choose actions that match their values despite those thoughts. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they shape current ways of connecting and reacting to stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Erick works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person's needs and goals. He will discuss how EFT, ACT or attachment ideas could be used and adapt his style to what the client prefers.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make fitting therapy around work and family easier and may reduce travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins when a brief conversation is needed, or for sessions without video if someone prefers less bandwidth or not being on camera. Registered or accredited professionals can use online work to blend regular sessions with occasional shorter contacts, helping therapy slot into everyday life.
