About Eric
Eric Aldaco is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California with 16 years of professional experience. He describes his role as supporting people who want to handle anger, improve relationships, or work through life changes. Sessions are offered in English and Spanish.
He approaches therapy from a client-centered stance, which means he listens first and follows the person's lead. He also frames his work within a Christian, biblical perspective when that is relevant to the client. He emphasizes a strength-based way of working and prefers to collaborate with people on practical steps rather than lecture or impose solutions.
In session Eric helps people sort through self-esteem issues and parenting or fatherhood concerns. He also addresses relationship strain, family questions, and the emotional effects of immigration or cultural stress. People bring him anger that shows up at home or work, and he works with them on how it arises and how to respond differently.
Conversations tend to focus on clear, usable strategies and on recognizing existing strengths. He encourages clients to identify values and goals and to test small changes between meetings. When faith matters to a client, he intentionally incorporates a biblical perspective into the work.
Eric uses straightforward talk, active listening, and collaborative planning. He invites clients to try approaches and reports back on what helps. The aim is practical progress you can notice in daily life.
How sessions work
How client-centered approaches guide online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what the person says matters most. It helps people describe what triggers anger, identify their own strengths, and figure out steps they are willing to try. When a client's faith is important, he can bring a biblical perspective into these conversations to connect values with action.Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That conversation usually happens in the first few sessions and then continues as progress is reviewed.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online sessions can make it easier to book regular check-ins and to practice new skills between meetings. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking to see which setup best fits your schedule and needs.
