Eric Howell, LMFT

Eric Howell is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 15 years of clinical experience. He holds California license CA LMFT 48383 and brings a background of work across nonprofit, government, and private practice settings to his therapeutic work.

Originally from the Northeast and of mixed European descent, Eric relocated to California at age 25. He pursued therapy after his own positive experience as a client, a journey that informs his empathy and practical approach. That personal connection to the process helps him support clients who are new to therapy as well as those who have pursued treatment before.

Eric works with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, stress, grief, relationship and family issues, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem and intimacy-related difficulties. He also focuses on challenges such as abandonment, attachment issues, communication and control problems, guilt and shame, impulsivity, isolation, men’s issues, midlife transitions, and money or career-related stressors.

Having grown up with close family members diagnosed with serious mental health conditions such as schizophrenia, Eric has particular experience assisting people affected by chronic and persistent mental illness within family systems. He is a gay male who trained at the Gay and Lesbian Center in Los Angeles and describes his practice as all-inclusive. He is not accepting clients at this time.
