About Edwin
Edwin Sanchez is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Arizona. He speaks English and Spanish and brings ten years of clinical experience to his work. He aims to make therapy straightforward and down-to-earth for people dealing with stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, low self-esteem, or depression.
He holds two master’s degrees, one in professional counseling and one in substance abuse counseling. That background informs his work with process addictions, substance concerns, and related behavior patterns.
Background and approach
He also has experience addressing issues such as obsessions and compulsions, phobias, sexual dysfunction, and postpartum depression. Edwin draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a respectful, empathetic space where people can speak freely. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and try new, practical behaviors.
Sessions focus on clear goals and small, doable steps between appointments. He has worked with diverse ethnic groups and has traveled in Latin America, which informs his awareness of multicultural and immigration-related issues. He also brings experience with first responder and veteran concerns, hoarding, infidelity, antisocial personality patterns, and prejudice or discrimination stressors.
Edwin says he tailors conversations and plans to each person’s needs. He aims to support and empower people who want change, with straightforward feedback and practical strategies. If someone prefers therapy in Spanish, he can meet in that language.
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Edwin uses Client-Centered Therapy to build a respectful, listening environment where people can share what matters to them. This approach focuses on understanding each person’s perspective and adapting the conversation to their needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to spot unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes that reduce stress and anxiety and address mood or addiction concerns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. Together they set practical objectives and adjust methods over time if something isn’t helping.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy flexible. Video lets people engage face-to-face and use visual cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a quick check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging work well for shorter updates, between-session support, or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and different routines.
