About Walter
Walter Scull is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Missouri with seven years of counseling experience. He works with adults and teens on common struggles like anxiety, depression, relationship stress, grief, and coping with life changes. He also supports people facing job or school transitions, caregiving strain, ADHD, and issues connected to identity and intimacy.
He uses practical, evidence-based methods in sessions and focuses on helping people develop skills they can use day to day. Expect straightforward strategies for managing symptoms and short exercises to practice between meetings. Sessions aim to be nonjudgmental and focused on the goals the client sets.
Walter has a master’s degree in counseling from the University of Missouri - Saint Louis and brings experience from both military service and corporate work into his clinical perspective. He has worked with first responders, veterans, healthcare workers, and people recovering from trauma.
He often draws on client-centered support, solution-focused work, and cognitive behavioral techniques to help people change unhelpful patterns and build coping skills. He also incorporates mindfulness and narrative ideas when those fit a person’s needs.
People looking for help with coping after large-scale events should mention those concerns when they get in touch. He accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English.

How Walter’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and supporting the person’s goals. In practice this means the therapist follows your lead, asks clarifying questions, and reflects back what’s important to you to help you find your own solutions.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. Online CBT sessions often include skill practice, thought records, and homework to try new behaviors between meetings, which can help with anxiety, depression, sleep, and anger.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and grounding skills to reduce reactivity. Exercises may include brief breathing practices and simple awareness tasks to use when stress rises or after distressing events.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick or combine methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. That plan can be adjusted as progress is made.
