About Edward

Edward Schultze is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor, LCPC in Maryland, and a Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC in Delaware, with 30 years of clinical experience. He works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, mood disorders, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, intimacy issues, sleep problems, parenting strain, self-esteem, coping with life changes, and ADHD. Sessions are practical and straightforward in tone.

He spent 35 years working in a special education school, primarily with adolescents and their families, before moving into private practice about ten years ago. Since then he has focused on one-on-one work with adults of all ages. That background informs his comfort with a wide range of life situations and mental health concerns.

Edward describes his style as easy-going, informal, practical, and nonjudgmental. He emphasizes partnership and the therapeutic relationship as central to progress. He often balances attention to deeper patterns with immediate, actionable steps to change behavior and thinking in the here and now.

He draws on multiple evidence-based techniques while maintaining a psychodynamic orientation as a guiding perspective. This allows him to address both long-standing themes and present-day problems that interfere with daily life. He encourages clients to test new ways of thinking and behaving.

Edward has provided remote services and has found them practical and effective. He invites questions and open discussion about goals and methods, and he works with people who want clear, down-to-earth help managing anger and other concerns.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Edward uses a psychodynamic orientation alongside practical behavior-focused work. Psychodynamic work looks at recurring patterns in thoughts and relationships to understand where anger and other problems come from. This can help when someone wants to see why they react a certain way over time.

He also emphasizes changing behavior and thinking in the here and now. These approaches give concrete actions to try between sessions, and help reduce immediate anger, anxiety, or sleep disruption while longer-term patterns are explored.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. He works with each person to weigh their goals, preferences, and daily life demands, and then adjusts methods as progress and needs become clearer.

Regarding online work, the biography indicates he has learned to provide therapeutic services remotely and has found this practical and effective. Please confirm current session options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Some people prefer audio-only visits for lower bandwidth or for a less intense encounter, while others choose video for face-to-face interaction. A simple conversation during the first appointment will clarify what format will work best for regular sessions.
