About Eric
Eric Aldaco is a licensed marriage and family therapist in California with 16 years of experience. He views each person as the expert on their own life and focuses on practical steps toward change. He explains therapy in plain terms and invites people to take the first step toward a more satisfying life.
He brings a faith-informed perspective and describes his work as rooted in Christian values. Sessions emphasize strengths people already have and use those strengths to tackle current problems. Eric works to create a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through what matters most to them.
Eric uses a client-centered therapy approach that follows the client’s pace and priorities. He listens closely, reflects what he hears, and helps people weigh options and practice new ways of responding. This approach is often useful for concerns about self esteem, coping with life changes, relationship and family strain, parenting stress, and anger.
Many people also seek support for fatherhood issues, forgiveness, immigration-related concerns, life purpose, men’s wellbeing, and multicultural challenges. He offers sessions in both English and Spanish for those who prefer either language.
To begin, people are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to the therapist’s availability. The therapist notes that subscription sessions can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and availability.
How client-centered care works online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in front of the therapist. It involves listening closely, reflecting what is heard, and following the client’s goals. This approach helps with issues such as self esteem, life transitions, relationship strain, parenting stress, and anger by keeping the client’s priorities central.Eric also frames his work from a Christian perspective when clients want that influence included. That means faith or spiritual values can be part of conversations about purpose, forgiveness, and moral decision making if the client prefers it.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to decide what feels most helpful based on their needs and goals. Goals are revisited over time and methods adapt as progress and preferences become clearer.
Confirm available session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. If language matters, sessions are offered in English and Spanish to match client preference.
