My name is Edwin Sanchez. I am a bilingual Hispanic counselor and have 15 years experience working in the counseling setting. I have counseled children and adults with a variety of mental health issues. I have worked with clients in crisis, clients in prison, and group and couples therapy. I am compassionate and authentic in my approach. I have also worked with a variety of ethnic groups and am very culturally sensitive in my sessions.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session together, we'll start with brief introductions, then dive into the specific challenges you're facing. This will help me create a tailored plan for us to work through in follow-up sessions.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I am uniquely qualified to treat clients from diverse backgrounds because I have a lot of life experiences and exposure to different cultures and perspectives.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I enjoy working with mature clients who have some experience in life and whose experiences have hindered the ability to solve their problems. They often feel stuck and are looking for some guidance in changing their lives for the better.

My treatment methods

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

I have used CBT in my various jobs for many years. I encourage clients to challenge their way of thinking which may lead to a different way to analyze their life situation. This in turn often leads to a change in bevahior and inprovement in mood. This method is very effective for treating depression and anxiety.

Couples Counseling

I have several years experience working with couples. My approach is to identify negative behaviours which can be changed in order to improve a relationship.

Culturally Sensitive Therapy

I have worked with people from different countries and backgrounds for many years. My own life experiences and training have taught me to be open-minded and a good listener. I am very sensitive to the needs of individuals from different cultures.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

Solution Focused Brief treatment recognizes that people can change and they are the experts in their own lives. It is a brief intervention that can be used for a variety of issues and I have implemented this method to treat anxiety, depression, and coping with changes in life.
