About Eric

Eric Billig is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in California. He combines thoughtful conversation with practical tools to help people manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and other life challenges. Eric writes plainly about how habits, thoughts, and bodily responses link together and uses that understanding in sessions.

He draws on existential ideas about meaning and choice to help people name what matters and decide how they want to live.

Background and approach

Eric also uses client-centered methods to listen closely and follow each person’s pace. Mindfulness skills are taught to help people steady attention and notice patterns without judgment. In practice he explains how unconscious drives and everyday behaviors interact.

Then he offers simple strategies aimed at changing those patterns. Sessions focus on clear, doable steps and on learning how thoughts and routines affect mood and behavior. Over 22 years of work in mental health have shaped his approach.

He blends long-term perspective with short-term strategies so people can both cope now and build new habits. His LMFT credential is listed as CA LMFT. Eric offers counseling for a wide range of concerns including relationships, parenting stress, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, career concerns, ADHD, trauma, and end-of-life topics.

He communicates in English and works with adults seeking practical change and clearer direction.

Online support

How existential ideas and practical online care connect

Existential Therapy helps people clarify values, notice life choices, and face difficult feelings about meaning and change. It is useful for grief, major life transitions, anxiety about purpose, and decisions about relationships or career.

Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the person's experience. The therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and supports people as they find their own direction. That approach is helpful when someone needs a steady, accepting space to think things through.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Eric will work together with each person to decide which combination of methods fits best. That collaborative process looks at goals, daily routines, symptoms, and what the person prefers about talking or learning new skills.

Online therapy offers several practical benefits. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break during a workday. Live chat or text-based messaging lets people check in more often or send shorter updates between sessions. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to use approaches like mindfulness exercises, motivational techniques, and narrative reflection across formats.
