Edwin Sanchez, LPC

Edwin Sanchez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Arizona with ten years of clinical experience. He speaks English and Spanish and brings experience from work with diverse ethnic groups. He focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, self-esteem, and depression while aiming to meet each person where they are.

Edwin uses a straightforward, respectful style in sessions. He listens first and adapts conversation and plans to each person's needs. He emphasizes practical steps people can try between visits and clear goals for progress.

His training includes two master’s degrees - one in professional counseling and one in substance abuse counseling - and a decade of hands-on practice. That background informs how he approaches addiction and related concerns without relying on jargon.

In sessions Edwin blends client-centered listening with cognitive behavioral strategies. That means he will give space for a person to tell their story, then work on thoughts and everyday habits that get in the way. He helps people notice patterns and test small, realistic changes.

People can expect a respectful, culturally aware approach. Edwin describes his role as supportive and empowering. He invites people to take steps toward a more fulfilling life and will work with them to shape the path forward.

How his approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy is about listening and responding to each person's experience with empathy and respect. In practice this means the therapist follows the client's lead, reflects what they say, and helps clarify goals and values to guide change.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and everyday habits. It involves identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying small behavioral experiments to see what changes, which can help with anxiety, depression, and some addiction-related behaviors.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences, and will adapt strategies over time based on what is helpful.

Practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week, shorter check-ins when that suits a client, or avoiding travel time. Because specific session formats were not listed in the profile, confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions will be conducted. Online work can still focus on thoughts and everyday habits using the same exercises and planning that happen in person.
