About Eric
Eric Clayburn is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and phobia-related worries. He also supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy difficulties, parenting and family strain, ADHD, addictions, and coping with major life changes. He speaks English and brings eight years of clinical experience to his work.
Eric keeps sessions straightforward and goal-oriented. He listens for what matters most and helps clients set small, manageable steps.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on practical skills that can be used between sessions. He avoids jargon and explains tools in plain language. His approach pulls from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior techniques to address unhelpful thoughts and improve emotional regulation.
He also uses solution-focused and trauma-informed ideas when they fit the situation. Methods are chosen to match a person’s needs and goals rather than following one single plan. In sessions he works on improving communication, reducing avoidance, and building coping routines.
He can help people facing anger, impulsivity, addiction, isolation, or challenges after adoption and foster care. He also supports those wrestling with mood disorders such as bipolar and disruptive mood dysregulation concerns. Eric offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make ongoing care more flexible.
Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules based on therapist availability.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Eric often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try small behavioral experiments to change them. CBT is useful for anxiety, phobias, depression, and stress because it breaks big problems into concrete steps and skills.He also integrates dialectical behavior therapy ideas to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT-informed skills can help when feelings feel overwhelming or when relationships are strained. When past events are affecting present life, he draws on trauma-focused work to help process impact and reduce triggers.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. He talks with each person about their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands, then suggests techniques to try. That plan is adjusted over time based on what’s working and what’s not.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which provide flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill practice; phone can work for check-ins or when lower bandwidth is needed. Chat and text messaging make brief check-ins and between-session support easier to fit into a busy day.
