About Edward

Edward Schultze is a licensed clinician with three decades of experience who helps people facing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and life changes. He speaks plainly and stays practical in sessions so parents and adults can focus on clear steps. His approach is steady and nonjudgmental, prioritizing what matters most right now.

He spent 35 years working in a special education school, mainly with adolescents and their families, before moving into independent practice about ten years ago.

Background and approach

Since then he has worked one-on-one with adults across a range of concerns. That background gives him a long view of developmental and behavioral issues. Edward blends a psychodynamic outlook with attention to immediate problems.

He aims to understand patterns that run beneath behavior while also helping people change actions and thoughts in the present. Sessions tend to be practical and goal-focused when quick shifts are needed. Clients can expect an easy-going and supportive tone.

He encourages questions and works as a partner in the process rather than an authority. He also acknowledges the courage it takes to pause and address problems that affect daily life. Edward offers remote sessions by phone, video, chat, or text messaging.

He has adapted his practice to online work and finds it a useful way to keep therapy active and accessible for people with busy schedules.

How Edward Uses Approaches Online

Edward draws on psychodynamic ideas to help people notice repeating patterns that affect mood and relationships; this approach looks at how past experiences shape present reactions and can help with long-standing anxiety, trauma, and relationship issues. He also focuses on changing behavior and thinking in the here and now by using practical strategies to reduce symptoms and try new ways of coping; this is useful for stress, sleep problems, ADHD-related challenges, and everyday anxiety.

Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. He works with each person to test what helps most, adjusting tactics based on goals, daily demands, and how a client responds. The therapist frames sessions as a partnership where questions and experimentation guide the path forward.

Online options - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging - make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video lets people read facial cues and work in real time, phone calls need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break, chat suits quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing, shorter check-ins between sessions. These formats increase flexibility and help people keep therapy consistent around work, school, or parenting commitments.
