Getting to know John Saunders

Hi there, I'm John! My name is John Saunders, and I am a licensed mental health counselor and master addictions counselor. I hold a Master’s in Counseling from New York University. I provide solution-focused therapy, CBT, and addiction counseling. I work collaboratively with patients to meet their purpose, goals, and objectives for treatment. My approach I utilize both behavioral and psychodynamic approaches to assist clients in achieving their therapy goals. My focus I provide cost-effective treatment for those suffering from addiction disorders, anxiety, bipolar and depression disorders, grief and loss, and eating disorders. I work with all populations, including children, military veterans, parents, adolescents, the elderly, and those diagnosed with illnesses such as immune disorders. My communication style The counseling process is a major investment in the overall health of the individual. I provide a safe and secure environment to begin the therapeutic process. My journey to therapy At the age of six, I lost my mother to the disease of addiction. She was 28 years old when she died. What drives me to do this work is the belief that everyone should have the opportunity to access treatment at any level, at any time, in a safe and secure environment with a trained and competent therapist. My goals for you I work collaboratively with clients to reach their self-identified goals for treatment. My first session with you During our initial session, we will explore and identify the reason for seeking treatment and establish treatment goals and objectives to guide your progress.
