Edward Sidebottom

My communication style

I like to provide a safe environment that allows my clients the ability to let down their defenses and discuss their needs without judgment or shame.

My journey to mental healthcare

The human brain and behavior have always been of interest to me. I spent years working in a hospital and as an EMT, seeing firsthand the impact of stress on healthcare workers and first responders. My passion for helping others who have experienced trauma led me to pursue counseling and work with individuals diagnosed with severe mental illness.

My goals for you

After the initial session, I work in collaboration with my clients to develop long-term goals and establish short-term objectives and interventions to reach their goals.

Our first session

During the first session, we will discuss the therapeutic process and responsibilities of the client/therapist, discuss the general goal of therapy, and identify and get an idea of how I can be of service to you.

I identify as...

• Male
• Caucasian or White
• Christian
