About Edwin
Edwin Sanchez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Arizona with ten years of clinical experience. He speaks English and Spanish and draws on his work with diverse ethnic groups and time spent in Latin America to connect across cultures. Edwin focuses on helping people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, low self-esteem, or depression.
He holds two master’s degrees, one in professional counseling and one in substance abuse counseling.
Background and approach
Edwin uses practical talking and goal-setting during sessions. He listens closely, then helps people set small, realistic steps to manage symptoms and regain control. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs.
Edwin tailors conversations and plans so they fit daily life and cultural background. He emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion when exploring difficult topics like loss, addiction, or discrimination. For people dealing with obsessive thoughts, phobias, or process addictions, he combines straightforward behavioral ideas with a client-centered focus.
He also brings experience with first responder and veteran issues, immigration-related stress, and challenges tied to prejudice. Edwin encourages taking the first step even when it feels hard. He offers a steady, practical presence and works with clients to build skills that can reduce distress and improve confidence over time.
Approaches and how they work online
Edwin uses client-centered therapy to focus on each person’s experience and priorities. That approach means sessions start by listening and aligning on goals, then adapting conversation to fit the client’s cultural background and daily life. It is useful for concerns like grief, self-esteem, and stress.He also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and test practical behavior changes. CBT often involves short exercises, mood tracking, and small experiments to reduce anxiety and manage compulsive behaviors.
Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Edwin will discuss different approaches and work with the client to decide what fits best. Treatment plans are adjusted over time based on progress, needs, and personal preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is helpful when visual cues matter and for deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be quicker and use less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework, or when writing helps process thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, or travel while maintaining consistent contact with a licensed professional.
