Affirming Online Therapy NYC:

Step Out of the Endless Cycle—Into Something New

You’re Tired of Overthinking, Carrying the Past, and Wondering If Things Will Ever Feel Different

Hi, I’m Eric Hovis—a licensed therapist offering online therapy for adults across New York.

If that sounds familiar, take a look around or book a free consult. I’m glad you’re here.

You don’t need more willpower—you need a new way forward. Anxiety, trauma, and self-doubt can keep you trapped in old cycles. But with the right support, real change is possible.

As an online therapist in NYC, I work with people from all walks of life and have extensive experience helping LGBTQ+ individuals and trauma survivors heal from the past, regain confidence, and move forward. Let’s start your path toward feeling like yourself again.

Healing isn’t about fixing yourself—it’s about coming home to who you are.
