About Edward

Edward Schultze offers a calm, practical approach for people worried about sleep, stress, mood, or life changes. He works with adults who want straightforward help to manage worry, tiredness, relationship strain, or shifts in mood. Edward uses plain language and a relaxed manner to make hard conversations feel manageable.

Edward holds licenses as a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland and a Licensed Professional Counselor in Delaware. He spent 35 years in a special education school working mainly with adolescents and families, then moved into private practice nearly ten years ago. Since that change he has focused on one-on-one work with adults of all ages.

He has long experience with trauma and abuse and with a wide range of mental health concerns, including depression, anxiety, bipolar issues, addiction, and sleep-related difficulties. In sessions he mixes attention to current practical needs with an interest in longer-term patterns so people get tools they can use right away.

Edward describes his style as easy-going, supportive, informal, practical, and nonjudgmental. He emphasizes a partnership with each person, and believes change is possible through attention to behavior and thinking in the present.

Because of recent circumstances he has experience providing therapy remotely and finds it can work well. Prospective clients are invited to ask questions and to discuss what fits their life and goals.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Edward uses a mix of psychodynamic ideas and practical, present-focused techniques. Psychodynamic work looks at patterns that repeat over time and how past experiences shape current feelings; it helps when someone wants to understand deeper reasons for sleep problems, mood shifts, or relationship difficulties. Present-focused techniques concentrate on changing behaviors and thoughts now, offering concrete steps to improve sleep routines, reduce worry, or shift reactions in stressful moments.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, symptoms, and daily life, then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made as work proceeds so the plan matches what helps most.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and avoid travel time. It also allows continued care when schedules or circumstances change. The biography indicates experience with remote therapy, but confirm which specific session options are currently offered before booking. The overall aim is to offer practical, usable strategies that fit into everyday life and support better sleep and coping over time.
