Brent Schultz

Brent Schultz is a licensed professional counselor and licensed mental health counselor with over 15 years of experience. He focuses on everyday struggles like anxiety, depression, stress, and addiction. Brent aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for people facing big life changes such as divorce and separation.

He helps people who feel isolated, overwhelmed by guilt or shame, or stuck in patterns of codependency and control. He also supports those dealing with social anxiety, communication problems, and challenges linked to military service. His work includes attention to LGBT concerns and compassion fatigue.

Brent approaches therapy with compassion and clear direction. Sessions tend to be collaborative and focused on concrete steps people can try between meetings. He listens first, and then helps clients set goals that feel manageable and relevant to their lives.

In practice he works to break down complex problems into workable pieces. That can mean practicing new ways to talk about feelings, testing small behavior changes, or building routines that reduce stress and cravings. He aims to help people find more clarity and steady routines.

Clients are encouraged to move at their own pace while working toward goals that matter to them. Brent says creating a respectful, nonjudgmental atmosphere is central to progress and to feeling ready for the next step.

Evidence-based techniques and online therapy options

Brent uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One common approach involves learning specific coping skills to manage anxiety and stress, such as breathing and grounding exercises, and step-by-step plans to reduce avoidance. These techniques aim to reduce immediate distress and build confidence for handling triggers.

Another helpful method centers on addressing behaviors linked to addiction and codependency. This includes identifying risky patterns, trying small behavior shifts, and creating routines that lower the chance of relapse or unhelpful responses. These steps are concrete and measurable so progress is easier to track.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Brent will discuss goals, preferences, and how a technique fits the problem at hand. Together the therapist and client try methods and adjust based on what feels most useful and sustainable.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography did not list specific options. Online therapy can make it easier to schedule appointments, fit sessions into a workday, and avoid travel time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins or audio-only sessions when video is not practical, helping therapy fit into everyday life more smoothly.
