About Erik

Erik Buskard is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) who draws on nine years of experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship friction, family conflicts, and challenges such as addictions, trauma, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and ADHD.

Background and approach

He focuses on creating an open, nonjudgmental environment where clients can explore thoughts and feelings and work toward clearer goals. His approach emphasizes collaboration and practical strategies tailored to each person's situation.

Working from Maine, Erik blends evidence-informed methods like cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness with attachment-based and client-centered principles to help clients build insight and skills. He seeks to empower those who decide to pursue change, acknowledging the courage it takes to begin therapy and providing steady support as clients try new ways of coping.

Sessions aim to strengthen coping skills, improve relationships, and support meaningful life adjustments without assuming a one-size-fits-all path.

Integrating therapeutic approaches with online care

Erik commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought and behavior patterns, a practical approach useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. He also draws on attachment-based therapy to explore how relationship patterns and early bonds influence current connections and emotional responses, which can be helpful for relationship and family issues.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each client to discuss goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques, adjusting methods over time so the work fits the person's needs and pace.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity when life changes, and try different ways of communicating that suit a client's comfort level.
