Things Eric enjoys?

"I enjoy living life to the fullest as much as possible with my wife, daughter, family, friends, and dog." 

"When I have time I have found a new joy in travelling and visiting different areas of our country."

"Family and friends are incredibly important to me."

"Gaming has always been a favorite pastime." 

 

A few thoughts Eric believes have always brought him peace and he would like to share with others:

"Every day brings a multitude of emotions whether it is stress, chaos, joy, sadness, anger, helplessness, or lessons, however, I aspire to try to allow the emotions and not allow the moments to take over the balance of peace in my overall everyday life." 

"Linking Multicultural viewpoints on mindfulness and spirituality into the overall plan of care to help each person with their journey to resilience."

"Integrating traditional/standard psychiatric/psychological treatments with complementary, holistic and integrative approaches help include the mind, spirit, and body."

"Each person has a unique skill set, a background, a present, a future, and a vast culture that makes them who they are, why should we treat everyone with the same thing?"

"Remember herbs, flowers, and nature are medications also. Many Western-developed medications were discovered from a natural flower, tree, or substance somewhere on the Earth."

Eric enjoys focusing on helping people become resilient, live their happiest life, and best work through anxiety, depression, trauma, eating disorders, and PTSD, but also many more concerns.

Eric strongly believes,".... any process of change or growth involves both reflection and action. In these, there are necessities of investigation, examination, and experimentation for each person."

 

Thank you for joining me here and I look forward to assisting (or at least inspiring) you along your journey to resilience and happiness!
