About Edward
Edward Schultze is a Maryland-based counselor who helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, addictions, and other life challenges. He brings thirty years of clinical experience and a practical, down-to-earth way of working. He focuses on clear goals and steady progress rather than jargon or lengthy theory.
Edward spent decades working in a special education school with adolescents and their families before moving into independent practice about ten years ago.
Background and approach
Since then he has mostly worked one on one with adults across a wide range of concerns. That background gives him experience with trauma, abuse, behavioral challenges, and complicated life transitions. He describes his style as easy-going, supportive, informal, practical, and nonjudgmental.
He sees therapy as a partnership and places a lot of value on the working relationship. He also balances longer-term thinking about patterns with steps that change behavior and thinking in the here and now. Edward holds an MD and is credentialed as an LCPC and an LPC.
He draws on multiple evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to a person’s goals and needs. He encourages questions and aims to explain things in simple terms. Remote sessions have been part of his practice for several years, and he has found them effective and convenient.
He works in English and offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging for those who prefer online formats.
What Edward works with
Everything Edward lists, in the therapist's own terms. Anger is the reason this directory exists; the rest tells you what usually sits alongside it in Edward's practice.
Evidence-based approaches for online care
Edward draws on a mix of evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on both understanding patterns and changing current behavior. Psychodynamic-informed work looks at recurring patterns and how past experiences shape current feelings and reactions; it helps when someone wants to understand why certain reactions keep happening. Cognitive-behavioral techniques focus on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors in the here and now; these methods are useful for anxiety, depression, anger, and sleep problems. He adapts these approaches to the person's goals and current needs.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Edward treats therapy as a collaborative process and will help figure out which techniques fit best based on the client's goals, preferences, and what feels workable in daily life. He balances deeper exploration with concrete steps for change so people can see progress while learning more about themselves.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or during short breaks, and live chat or text messaging can be useful for quick check-ins or for people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit regular sessions into work, childcare, or other routines while keeping continuity of care.
