About Eric
Eric Foraker is a Nevada-licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 22 years of clinical experience. He holds a master’s degree in Applied Psychology and completed post-master’s work in Marriage and Family Therapy. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, anger, and low self-esteem. He also focuses on issues such as attachment patterns, commitment and communication problems, dissociation, infidelity, and life purpose.
He practices in a collaborative way. Sessions are conversational and practical. He listens, reflects, and helps people try strategies that fit their life. That includes looking at thoughts and behaviors, values, and how relationships affect everyday choices.
Eric uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s situation. He draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and notice unhelpful thinking. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns that keep problems going. He also uses client-centered work to keep conversations grounded in what matters to the client.
Over two decades he has worked with individuals, couples, and families to reduce conflict and improve how people relate. He pays attention to family of origin issues, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and separation or divorce concerns. He aims to help people feel more in control of their choices, not promise a particular outcome.
People contact him when they feel stuck after a life change, unsure about direction, or when relationship problems and old patterns keep repeating. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.
Approaches and how online sessions can support them
Eric often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in his work. ACT focuses on identifying personal values and learning to act in ways that match those values, which can help when life feels directionless. CBT looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical steps to change patterns that increase anxiety or low mood.He also uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening and reflecting so clients can make sense of their own priorities. Finding the right approach is part of the process. He works collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s goals, preferences, and the problems they bring to sessions.
Confirm the session formats before booking since the original biography does not list specific delivery options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it possible for people in other locations to speak with a Nevada-licensed LMFT. Those practical benefits are often helpful when someone is rearranging work, relationships, or health demands.
