About Edward
Edward Schultze is a licensed counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and relationship or family concerns. He uses a straightforward, calm style and listens closely to what matters most to each person. He spent 35 years working in a special education school, mostly with adolescents and their families, before moving into independent practice about ten years ago.
Since then he has worked one on one with adults of all ages, bringing decades of experience to each session.
Background and approach
Edward describes his approach as relaxed and practical. He emphasizes a partnership with clients and aims to be nonjudgmental and supportive. Sessions often balance looking at deeper patterns with addressing immediate problems that affect daily life.
He draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and emphasizes changing unhelpful behaviors and thoughts in the here and now when that will help most. At the same time he pays attention to longer-term patterns that might come from past experience.
People who reach out can expect clear conversation, help making small changes that add up, and encouragement to try new ways of coping. Edward values courage and hope, and invites questions about how therapy might fit a person's life. Edward is based in Maryland and holds MD, LCPC, and LPC credentials.
He conducts sessions in English and works remotely using video, phone, chat, and text-based messaging.
How Edward blends approaches for online care
Edward draws on psychodynamic ideas and practical behavior-focused techniques to help people online. A psychodynamic approach looks at longer-term patterns and how past experiences affect current feelings and relationships; it can help when someone wants to understand recurring struggles. Behavior-focused work targets current actions and routines, helping people make small, concrete changes that reduce symptoms like anxiety, poor sleep, or impulsive habits.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. He will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences, adjusting as progress is made or priorities change.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more personal contact is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to be on camera. Chat and text are useful for brief check-ins, reminders, or when a shorter interaction fits into a busy day. These options let people fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other routines while keeping continuity of care.
