About Edward

Edward Church is a licensed professional counselor clinical candidate (LPCC) with 30 years of experience. He offers calm, straightforward support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and life transitions. He writes plainly and listens closely to what matters to each person.

He favors an existential approach, which helps people look at meaning, choice, and responsibility when life feels uncertain. He also uses client-centered methods to hold a respectful, nonjudgmental space.

Background and approach

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) tools are available to address patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going. Edward has worked with many concerns over his career, including grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strains, and issues around identity and LGBT concerns. He also helps with career questions, self-esteem, bipolar and ADHD management, and coping with chronic illness or pain.

He offers practical steps and conversation tailored to each person’s circumstances. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change or understand. Edward helps set clear goals and tries to keep work concrete and usable between sessions.

He encourages honest talk about difficult feelings and practical plans for next steps. Based in New Mexico, he brings three decades of clinical experience to online formats and phone work. The first session usually clarifies priorities, and follow-up meetings track progress and adjust the plan as needed.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Edward uses an existential framework to help people face questions about meaning, choice, and responsibility when life feels confusing or empty. That approach is about talking through values and what really matters, often during major life transitions or midlife rethinking.

He also practices client-centered therapy, which prioritizes listening without judgment and following the person’s pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, used alongside these approaches, focuses on identifying thought and behavior patterns and testing small changes that reduce anxiety or depression.

Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. Edward works with each person to identify goals, try different methods, and adjust based on what helps. He frames therapy as a partnership where the person’s needs and preferences shape the plan.

Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for in-depth conversation and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging make brief check-ins and ongoing support easier to fit between appointments.
