Hi there, I'm Eric!

My name is Eric Summers and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Boise, Idaho working with clients statewide via telehealth. I work with adolescents and adults who struggle with anxiety, ADHD, mood disorders, and trauma using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing to help my clients feel positivity and confidence working towards their goals.

My approach

My approach to therapy focuses on how behavior links with thoughts and feelings while finding strengths to build off of each other. I motivate my clients to help them realize their potential while wanting to grow and learn new aspects to improve.

My focus

I have experience working with adults and adolescents with mood disorders, anxiety, ADHD, and past trauma. I specialize in treating ADHD, both inattentive and impulsive/hyperactive types, trauma-related symptoms using CBT, social anxiety, and anxiety/struggles with parenting.

My communication style

My communication style is positive, personable, and inviting. I strive to match the energy of my clients by being friendly and understanding.

My journey to mental healthcare

I have always loved putting other people's needs first and I strive to use my background, knowledge, and education to help people feel validated through my unique counseling approach.

My goals for you

I love setting goals with my clients to help them feel motivated in their accomplishments and growth while feeling the positive outcomes of working hard.

My first session with you

In our first session, I try to help my clients feel as comfortable as possible while being heard and validated. This is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin trusting each other as you take your first steps in achieving your purpose for going to counseling.
