About Eric

Eric Golden is a licensed professional clinical counselor (LPCC) practicing in New Mexico with 13 years of experience. He frames therapy as a way to change how people relate to their feelings, relationships, and life events. His tone is warm and down-to-earth, and he emphasizes patience, humor, and steady support.

He writes plainly about growth and the messy parts of being human. He focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and addictions.

Background and approach

He also supports concerns around self-esteem, anger, grief, parenting, ADHD, relationship and family issues, LGBT matters, and finding life purpose. The work aims to strengthen what already exists inside a person rather than forcing a fixed solution. Eric uses approaches such as Attachment-Based Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Existential Therapy.

Expect practical conversations about thoughts and behaviors alongside attention to emotional bonds and values. Sessions often blend short-term strategies with deeper reflection. He describes his stance as strength-based and relational.

That means he offers steady, humane feedback and helps people notice patterns that feel stuck. Humor and humility are part of how he holds things in session. Eric works with children, adolescents, adults, and families in previous roles and brings that breadth into current practice.

He invites people to move toward their concerns with curiosity rather than judgment, and to try new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Online support

How attachment and ACT guide online sessions

Eric often blends Attachment-Based Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people change how they relate to feelings and relationships. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in how people connect with others and helps them notice and shift those patterns to feel less reactive. ACT focuses on values and small actions - it helps people accept difficult emotions and move toward what matters to them.

Finding the right blend of approaches is a collaborative process. Eric will talk with each person about goals, struggles, and preferences, then adjust methods as they go. He works together with clients to choose practices and exercises that match their life and needs.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a camera is not wanted, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or ongoing written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work breaks, family routines, or travel while keeping momentum between sessions.
