August Schultz, MSW-I

Meaningful change can begin with creating space to slow down, understand yourself more fully, and consider what you want the next chapter of your life to look like. I offer a warm, honest, and collaborative space where we can explore what may be beneath the surface and make room for greater clarity, confidence, and intention. Together, we can examine the patterns shaping your experiences while staying grounded in your identity, aspirations, and autonomy.

Modality and Approach

My approach is relational, person-centered, and integrative. I draw from psychodynamic exploration, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and strengths-based approaches, tailoring our work to your individual needs and goals. Together, we can explore how past experiences, relationships, and internalized expectations may influence the way you think, feel, and connect with others today. We can also develop practical strategies for navigating difficult emotions, shifting patterns that may no longer serve you, and responding to stress and relationships in healthier ways. I work with adolescents and adults navigating anxiety, depression, ADHD, emotional regulation, self-esteem, life transitions, relationship concerns, work stress, identity, and questions of meaning and purpose.

What is one thing you do daily that supports your mental and emotional well-being?

Time with friends, time outdoors, and creative outlets are essential to me. Whether I’m surfing, playing tennis, playing guitar, writing, or taking a walk with a friend, I try to make space for at least one of these activities each day to stay refreshed and grounded.
