My Approach to Therapy

Hi! My name is Nick Saunders, a licensed associate counselor (LAC) in Mesa, AZ. Let me tell you a little about myself. I have a Master of Counseling degree from Arizona State University and a Certificate in Addiction Studies from the University of Minnesota. I also have years of experience working with teens in Minneapolis as a licensed addiction counselor (LADC). I know that finding a new therapist can be an overwhelming process, so the fact that you are here seeking help with your struggles shows just how strong you are. You might be struggling with profound sadness, overwhelmed with anxiety, or feeling like your moods are out of control. Perhaps you’re in a shaky relationship, feeling defeated as a parent, or maybe you’re desperate to overcome an addiction. It could be that you’re suffering from many of these afflictions and are not sure where to even start. The good news is that you’ve come to the right place, and I’m here to help. I’ve helped many teens and adults overcome all of the above challenges and more, and I specialize in working with folks struggling with mental health and addiction at the same time. My approach is pretty simple - you sit in the driver’s seat while I ride shotgun and use my counseling knowledge to create a safe and empowering space for you to tell your story. You can be your true self in our sessions without fear of judgment or labeling, and I’ll be real with you in return. We’ll build a plan that tackles your problems from multiple angles, laying the groundwork for lasting relief. If this sounds appealing to you, schedule a free consultation with me and see if we’d be a good fit. I hope to hear from you.
