Erick Oduor, BACP

Erick Oduor is a counsellor with BACP registration and 16 years of experience. He offers calm, practical support for people facing major life stresses. He focuses on helping people feel steadier and more able to act on what matters to them.

Erick works with issues such as family conflict, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety and stress. He also helps with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, anger and career change. Additional areas he pays attention to include chronic pain, caregiver stress, codependency and substance-related difficulties.

In sessions he treats the client as the expert in their own life and looks for strengths to build on. He uses approaches that encourage taking values-based action, looking at attachment patterns, and shaping thoughts and feelings into manageable steps. Conversations aim to be plain and straightforward so people can try new ways of coping between meetings.

Erick describes therapy as a collaborative process. He supports people to set small, realistic goals and to practise skills that fit their daily life. The emphasis is on gradual change and on helping people regain confidence and direction.

Sessions are offered in English and he sees people in the United Kingdom. For those considering working together, Erick invites a first step of a short matching process to help decide if his style fits the person's needs.

How Erick's approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take small steps towards those values while learning to sit with difficult thoughts. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on practical strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns that maintain anxiety, low mood or stress. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how those patterns shape reactions to conflict, loss or intimacy problems.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences and which methods feel most helpful. Over a few sessions they will adjust the plan so it fits the client’s needs and life situation.

The biography does not specify particular session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also supports continuity of care for people living in different places, while letting the therapist and client try techniques and homework tasks that suit everyday life.
