About Eric

Eric Aldaco, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT), practices in California and has 16 years of clinical experience. He focuses on self esteem, coping with life changes, relationships, family concerns, parenting, and anger. He also addresses fatherhood issues, forgiveness, immigration concerns, life purpose, men's issues, and multicultural topics. Sessions are informed by a Client-Centered Therapy approach and a Christian perspective.

Eric presents therapy as a collaborative process. He works from the belief that clients know their lives best and brings out existing strengths. He frames change as a series of practical steps rather than abstract goals. Conversations emphasize what feels most important to the client in the moment.

In sessions he uses listening, reflection, and questions to clarify goals and options. He aims to help people build clearer self-understanding and to try different ways of coping. Practical matters such as managing anger, navigating role changes like fatherhood, or working through immigration stress are discussed directly.

Eric says faith can be part of treatment when clients want it. His stated viewpoint includes biblical perspectives alongside client-centered techniques. He works to align therapy with each person's values and long-term aims.

People often begin by identifying one or two immediate concerns. From there he and the client set short-term steps and review progress. The focus stays on usable strategies that fit daily life and personal commitments.

How Client-Centered Therapy is used for online work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflection, and the client's own goals. The therapist follows what the client says and helps them name priorities. This approach is useful for issues like self esteem, life direction, relationship challenges, and cultural or immigration concerns. Eric also integrates a faith-informed perspective when clients request it. That means biblical values may be part of conversations and decision-making. The therapist presents options and works with the client to decide which ideas fit their values and aims. Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will review goals, try methods, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients and the therapist regularly check progress and make simple changes to the plan. Confirm which session formats are available before booking, as the biography does not list specific online session types. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Some clients find video helps with reading facial cues while phone sessions can be useful for brief updates or lower bandwidth situations. Discuss formats and timing with the therapist when scheduling so sessions work with everyday life.
