About Eric
Eric Katz is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New York and a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) in Vermont with 26 years of experience. He helps people who are wrestling with stress, anxiety, relationship strains, trauma and abuse, anger, and depression. Eric works in straightforward language and aims to make the first steps into therapy easier to manage.
He uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice patterns and try different responses. Sessions focus on identifying thoughts and behaviors that feed stress and anger, and on building small, usable skills for real situations. He uses approaches drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tailored to what the person needs in session.
Eric talks through how reactions start and what keeps them going. He offers concrete tools for regulating emotion, communicating clearly, and reducing repetitive unhelpful thinking. Work may include values-focused goal-setting, behavioral experiments, and skills practice between sessions.
Clients can expect direct conversation about triggers, typical responses, and practical adjustments to daily routines. He supports work on codependency, guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, obsessions and compulsions, and post-traumatic stress alongside core mood and anxiety concerns.
Sessions are conducted in English and are based in New York. People who live outside the United States are not accepted for care. To begin, the site matching process is used to schedule an initial session.
How sessions work
How ACT, CBT and DBT translate to remote sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting driven by them, then choose actions that match their values. It can help when anger or avoidance keeps someone from living the life they want. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down how thoughts, actions, and feelings interact and uses experiments and skill practice to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, anger, and repetitive worry. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication in heated moments.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and try strategies together to see what helps. Adjustments are made over time based on what the client notices and reports between sessions.
The original biography did not specify which online session types are offered. Please confirm session options before booking so you know how meetings are scheduled. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into workdays, reduce travel time, and make it easier to check in after a difficult moment. Others prefer shorter check-ins or audio-only conversations when video is not practical. The focus is on fitting therapy into everyday life while using ACT, CBT, and DBT tools in practical ways.
