Dr. Eric Tucker, PhD  LCSW

Children, Adolescents & Adults

Hi, my name is Eric Tucker.

I graduated from Southeastern Louisiana University with a Bachelors Degree in Social Work.

I was an accomplished Division I track & field scholar-athlete, youth mentor, and community advocate for under-served communities in the metro-New Orleans area.  I then went to Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, LA, to graduate with a Masters Degree in Social Work. 

In addition to having 19 years of social work experience, I am an Adjunct Faculty member of the NC State University Department of Social Work and offer supervision for associated level clinicians seeking full licensure.

I have worked with all ages across a broad range of concerns, including work with individuals, couples, and family therapy.

I am especially qualified to address stress-related problems, and value helping each person attain the highest level of holistic health and wellness.

I also value your expertise, and worth and dignity as a person. Therefore, I fully appreciate the wealth of wisdom that each person brings to our joint effort to address each therapeutic concern.

​Out of disappointing moments and immeasurable difficulties comes the opportunity for magnificent measures of success and redemption. As we embrace these opportunities for greatness collaboratively, having a therapist that is innovative and motivational is critical.

My training and experience in the public and private sectors has shaped my approach to working with clients. I have a realistic view of life's challenges and use a collaborative relationship with clients, that focuses on genuine solutions, identification of your innate strengths, and exploring ways to improve overall wellness.

Whether you or a family member is feeling anxious, depressed, having relationship problems, or difficulties managing anger/unwanted emotions 

having an experienced and compassionate therapist is key.

I am interactive in sessions with a warm and encouraging presence. I have a good sense of humor and tend to help people feel at ease.

My approach is supportive yet challenging, and I tend to create a more laid-back, comfortable experience.
