About Eric

Eric Teman is an LPC based in Colorado who supports adults facing a range of concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, depression, stress, anxiety, and relationship struggles.

Background and approach

He also focuses on related areas such as control issues, guilt and shame, infidelity, men’s issues, post-traumatic stress, process addictions (porn, exercise, gambling), self-love, sex addiction, and questions of sexuality. He approaches each concern with respect and practical attention to what a client wants to change.

His style blends cognitive behavioral techniques with acceptance and commitment ideas, client-centered attention, narrative exploration, and trauma-focused strategies. This mix lets him help clients identify unhelpful patterns, examine the stories that shape their choices, and develop new responses to difficult thoughts and feelings.

Sessions emphasize collaboration and building skills that support clearer values and more effective coping. With five years of experience, Eric offers a direct yet empathetic presence aimed at helping people move toward greater clarity and resilience.

He meets clients where they are and works alongside them to set realistic goals and practical steps forward.

Approaches for Online Work: Strategies That Fit Your Goals

Eric integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) alongside client-centered listening to address patterns that maintain distress and to clarify what matters most to a client. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence to reduce symptoms and change behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and addictive patterns. ACT helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that align with personal values, supporting growth even when uncomfortable internal experiences remain.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and happens collaboratively. The therapist works with each client to weigh options, adjust methods based on what is or is not working, and prioritize strategies that match the client's goals and preferences. This collaborative stance helps tailor tools and practices to individual needs rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility in how sessions take place, with options for video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, maintain continuity when travel or life changes occur, and access consistent support from licensed professionals without needing to commute.
