About Edward
Edward Church is a licensed professional counselor clinical (LPCC) with 30 years of experience. He focuses on anxiety, stress, depression, and related life challenges. He aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure.
He uses straightforward conversation to help people name what’s happening and find practical next steps. Sessions are meant to be a calm space where a person can talk without being judged.
Background and approach
Edward encourages gentle progress rather than sudden change. Edward blends client-centered work with cognitive behavioral ideas. That means he listens closely, then helps people test different ways of thinking and behaving that can reduce anxiety and improve mood.
He also uses existential themes to help people consider meaning, values, and life choices during big transitions. His practice includes support for addiction concerns, relationship strain, grief, trauma, parenting stress, and career questions. He also addresses longer-term or overlapping issues such as chronic illness, aging concerns, and co-morbid conditions.
Treatment plans are tailored to each person's situation and goals. Edward works with people across New Mexico and internationally in English. He welcomes exploring practical options like phone or video calls and text-based messaging to fit varied schedules.
He helps people take the first steps and stay focused on changes that matter to them.
How his approaches translate to online therapy
Edward uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, listening approach that puts a person’s concerns and goals first. In practice this means spending time understanding what matters to the client, then shaping sessions around those priorities to address anxiety, grief, or life changes.He also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online CBT sessions often include short exercises, thought records, and behavioral experiments that clients can try between meetings to reduce anxious patterns or improve mood.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. He works with each person to decide which combination of client-centered listening, CBT skills, or existential conversations will best match their needs and preferences. That collaborative process is part of the therapy itself and can shift over time as goals change.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone calls can fit shorter check-ins or low-bandwidth needs, live chat suits quick exchanges, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options aim to make scheduling easier and to keep therapy consistent during busy or changing routines.
