About Erick
Erick Rainosek is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with 12 years of experience helping people with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. He focuses on motivation and confidence and works with concerns such as attachment, abandonment, communication problems, and caregiver stress.
He uses a mix of approaches to guide sessions, including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Existential Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. In conversations he centers the client's perspective and looks for practical steps a person can try between meetings. Sessions often include talking through recent events, identifying patterns, and practicing skills for managing intense emotions.
Erick treats the immediate problems people bring, like panic or grief, while also paying attention to how past relationships influence current behavior. He helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, test new ways of responding, and build small habits that support change. When issues are complex, he uses longer-term exploration to clarify values and meaning.
He asks direct questions and offers straightforward feedback. Clients can expect clear suggestions and tools drawn from behavioral strategies and DBT skills when appropriate. He also uses motivational interviewing techniques to address ambivalence and strengthen reasons for change.
Erick encourages people to check whether his style fits their needs before committing. He invites prospective clients to reach out and discuss goals and practical next steps for beginning work together.

How Erick brings core approaches to remote work
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and reflecting back what matters most to the client. In practice this means sessions focus on the person's experience and goals, with the therapist following the client's lead to identify priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It provides practical strategies for lowering anxiety, changing unhelpful thinking, and practicing new behaviors between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication, which can help during times of crisis or when emotions feel overwhelming.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Erick discusses options together and adjusts methods based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize skills training, short-term CBT tasks, or deeper existential conversation.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. In general, remote work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It can also let people use phone-only or lower-bandwidth options when video is difficult. Ask about session length and format when scheduling to match practical needs.
