About Erick
Erick Oduor is a counsellor who works from a client-centred approach. He emphasises the person’s own perspective and strengths. He aims to create a calm space where people can talk through painful events and make changes that matter to them.
He has 16 years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. Erick often supports people dealing with family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and struggles with motivation, self-esteem and confidence.
In sessions he listens for what matters most to each person and follows their lead. He uses techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts without being driven by them. He also draws on attachment ideas to look at how past relationships shape current patterns.
When working on practical problems he may use simple cognitive behavioural tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try small experiments. Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas can help when the focus is on deepening emotional understanding and repairing close bonds.
He aims to empower people to make choices that match their values and everyday life. The process is collaborative and paced to the individual. For anyone thinking about therapy, Erick’s approach centres on respect, steady support and helping people find their own way forward.
How therapeutic approaches fit with online therapy
Erick blends a client-centred way of working with other approaches to meet practical needs. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead, which helps build trust and clarity about what to work on. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills for accepting difficult thoughts and committing to small actions that reflect personal values. Attachment-Based ideas look at how early relationship patterns affect current interactions and can guide work on connection and trust.Choosing the right approach is part of the therapy process. Erick will work with the person to decide which methods best suit their goals, needs and preferences. That choice is reviewed over time so the plan can change if something else feels more helpful. The process is collaborative and paced to what the client wants to achieve.
If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the exact session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also be useful when quieter surroundings or reduced visual demands are helpful. Ask about formats and scheduling when you complete the matching questionnaire so arrangements match everyday life and practical needs.
