I'm glad you found BetterHelp. It can be hard making a change and asking for help is a huge step to feeling better. I'd like to share a little bit about me and give you some idea of how I've helped others. If you feel this would be a good fit for you, please reach out and schedule with me. I'm licensed in Washington State and the Commonwealth of Virginia. I finished my counseling program in Washington State and have moved around a bit since then. I've worked with young children and their parents who are starting out in Kindergarten. I also worked with parents who are at the end of life and their children who are caregivers. As a medical social worker, I've helped caregivers connect with doctors, physical therapists, massage therapists, and others who can help them feel more comfortable caring for someone who is sick. I've helped military members and their families transition into civilian life. I'm a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional and Certified Grief Counseling Specialist, who as worked with people who experienced difficult situations. I like to move people beyond seeing their label to feeling in control of their lives and bodies. I believe everyone experiences trauma and grief differently, so I'm respectful of your process and will ask for your input before developing a roadmap to helping you. If you feel stuck and would like a person to help you be accountable, I will be here. Please contact me anytime you're ready to begin the next part of your journey.

You're ready to actually do something different. You've probably tried therapy before. Maybe it helped for a bit, but something was missing. Or maybe you spent months talking in circles without any real change. I work differently. I'm direct, a little weird, and allergic to therapy BS. If you want someone to just validate you endlessly without challenge, I'm not your person. But if you're ready to take an honest look at yourself, try new perspectives, and actually make moves? We'll work well together. I'm especially good with people who: - Know they want something different but keep getting stuck on "what now?" - Feel like they're constantly choosing between being authentic and connecting with others - Are tired of surface-level conversations and want to dig into real solutions - Have a low tolerance for fluff and want therapy that actually goes somewhere - Are action-oriented and willing to experiment What you should know: I've spent 15+ years working with everything from addiction to severe mental health crises to everyday relationship and life challenges. I bring addictions counseling training (LAC) along with my clinical license, which means I understand how people actually change - not just in theory. My approach: We figure out what's actually blocking you, we try things, we adjust based on what works. I'm going to ask you to look at hard truths sometimes. I'm also going to help you see your own strengths and possibilities you might not have considered. Practical details: - Available Tuesday-Thursday, 9am-4pm Mountain Time - I respond to messages outside these hours as I'm able - Licensed in Washington, Montana, and Maine If you're ready to move forward instead of just talking about moving forward, let's work together.

Thank you for your courage in considering my help. If you do select me to talk with I will be as careful and supportive as possible. My mission is to see the world through your eyes, to pose questions to help clarify how you see that world, and to always be in your corner whatever you decide. What I will do consistently is listen intently without judgment, show sincere empathy, look for and validate strengths, do collaborative problem solving, and even share some humor along the way. I find that these practices help good solutions rise to the top. You may want to take your time to talk things out for any reason. . .or you may want to make quicker decisions and focus on plans to carry them out. I'm comfortable going at your pace. Although 30 to 45 minutes is the "norm" here, if needed I can speak with you for between 55 to 60 minutes. I say that because due to some fortunate circumstances I'm able to focus on fewer people and a good deal of my reward is the connection to the open and honest thoughts and feelings of fellow human beings. My name is Eric Levine. I’m a licensed Counselor based in Washington State having worked 14 years in the field of counseling after earning my Masters specializing in Counseling Psychology at UCLA. Workplace and career issues are two areas of emphasis, helping people who want to stay in their present job with its difficulties, make a decision to leave and how to prepare for it, or even explore a different career and/or educational path--with all the emotions those things can evoke. Of course relationships, which are so important in general, can be affected by these issues and so many others, so of course we can work on them as well. Many of those with problems that seemed overwhelming began by talking about them and when ready took small steps that in themselves brightened their outlook on the future and eventually led to improved outcomes. Like many counselors my preference is to work with people in person. But since remote counseling has come to the fore (even more so after the pandemic hit) I find the next best mode is talking on the phone which brings with it a sense of focus and "presence," along with inflection, emphasis, feeling tones, humor, and most importantly the ability to immediately clear up any misunderstandings with the sensitivity of the spoken word. In that regard I’ve been told I have a very calm and pleasant voice that I owe to my father, a newscaster whose warm emotionality came right through the radio, even more so to those of us around him. After a fairly long career in education and counseling programs, I seek to return through this venue to a similar position I held in a university setting where I was able to work individually with students, staff, and administrators, young and old. The shared openness involved was something I could never take for granted, the life stories amazing in themselves.

Life can sometimes be difficult and surprising. There are ebbs and flows. The seasons of our life hold challenges, new issues arise, and we are sometimes confused. Perhaps what we seek is a new question. That question might lead to new answers and strategies for navigating through the present challenge. I’m a counselor with over 20 years of experience and specialized trainings. I’ve become familiar with the variety and depth of our human circumstances and encounters. I hold a conviction and personal view that every person’s trials and perceptions are their truth and that they present an opportunity for growth. What is true for you, your reality, is our starting point toward achieving goals. Counseling is a tool that helps us get current with our life. In the partnering of counselor and client, I utilize a holistic focus that validates your experience, finds the wisdom that makes the most sense in your challenge, and gives you a place to be seen and accepted without a need to be other than your true self. With my ease of listening with empathy and intuition, and my ability to guide through the background noise and chaos of life events, your life story and the innate wisdom it holds will unfold so you can develop strategies that are in your highest and best interests.
