Getting to know Chad Metz

Hi there, I'm Chad! I am a solution-focused therapist with 20 years in the behavioral health field and 12 years practicing therapy. Nine of those years were spent working intensely with recovering addicts. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with a Master's in Social Work from Arizona State University and a Bachelor's from Utah Valley University, I will listen to you, empower you, validate you, support you, and maybe even humor you. My areas of focus are teens, chronic pain, men's sexual health, trauma & complex PTSD, and substance use disorders. My approach I use a trauma modality similar to EMDR called ART, which is an eye-movement therapy. I also use CBT, DBT, ACT, CPT, and MI. I'm strength-based and solution-focused, very eclectic, and will meet you where you are. My focus I work with pre-teens, teens, adults, older adults, and couples. Of course, I help individuals suffering from depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, and stress, but my specializations are chronic pain, addiction (both sexual and substance), men's health, trauma, and complex PTSD. My communication style I create a warm, trusting atmosphere where you can hopefully feel safe. Once rapport is built, my hope is that we can work together to unpack your issues and concerns. The goal is to change and meet therapeutic goals. Therapy means to heal, and I know you can find that with me. It's a process-trust the process. My journey to mental healthcare At 19, I discovered the secret to life: helping others. I'm fascinated by why people do what they do and love helping people help themselves. I'm here to help you along your journey. My goals for you By the first or second session, it's collaborative-driven by you and guided by me. My first session with you I'll explore the rhyme and reason you're seeking counseling, gather background, and build rapport.
