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 experience. He works with a wide range of concerns listed in his profile, including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, relationship and family issues, parenting challenges, and ADHD. He now sees adults one on one and focuses on practical ways to address day-to-day problems at home.
Before private practice he spent three and a half decades working in a special education school. There he supported adolescents and their families, which shaped his approach to common family stresses. About ten years ago he moved into private practice and now spends most of his time working directly with adults of all ages.
He describes his style as easy-going, informal, practical, and nonjudgmental. He emphasizes partnership in the work and aims to help people make changes they want to see in their thinking or behavior. Sometimes the goal is immediate, practical change and other times it is exploring deeper patterns that shape current problems.
Edward draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a psychodynamic orientation, while keeping attention on present-day needs. He encourages questions and likes to talk through how therapy might fit into a person's life. Sessions have been offered remotely during the pandemic and he has continued working with adults online.
People who come for help with parenting strain, relationship tension, grief, sleep problems, or mood shifts will find an approach focused on clear, realistic steps and an ongoing collaborative relationship.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions work
Edward draws on psychodynamically-oriented work and techniques that change thinking and behavior in the present. Psychodynamic approaches look at patterns from past relationships and how they show up now, which can help when recurring family tensions or intimacy problems keep repeating. Behavioral and cognitive techniques focus on changing specific thoughts and actions in the here and now, useful for managing anxiety, sleep problems, or routines around parenting.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Edward treats the choice of method as collaborative and adjusts based on a person's needs, goals, and what works in practice. He will talk through options and try approaches that match what you want to change, whether that is a short-term shift in behavior or exploring deeper relational patterns.
The biography indicates he has provided therapy remotely since the pandemic. Confirm the exact session formats before booking to know whether video or phone options are available. Remote work can make scheduling easier, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so sessions fit around school, work, or caregiving responsibilities. Many adults find these practical benefits help them maintain regular sessions while handling busy home lives.
