About Walter

Walter Scull is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Missouri with seven years of experience supporting teens, adults, couples, and parents. He holds a Masters degree in Counseling from the University of Missouri - Saint Louis and has completed post-graduate certifications as a Certified Clinical Telemental Health Provider and a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, credentials that reflect additional training in remote care and trauma-informed approaches.

Drawing on client-centered and cognitive behavioral strategies, Walter focuses on practical skill building and evidence-based methods to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. He commonly works with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief and loss, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, ADHD, caregiver fatigue, and life transitions, and he also provides support for LGBT, military/veteran, first responder, and healthcare worker concerns.

Before entering counseling he served in the United States Coast Guard and worked in corporate sales, experiences that inform his pragmatic and goal-oriented style. Walter emphasizes a collaborative, nonjudgmental environment where clients set goals and learn coping tools tailored to their needs. Outside of work he is married, shares a teen daughter and a rescue dog, and enjoys walking, cooking, music, kayaking, and travel.

Approaches for Online Care and Therapeutic Support

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and experiences, creating a supportive space where the therapist listens, reflects, and helps the client discover solutions that fit their life. This approach is useful for relationship concerns, self-esteem issues, and navigating life changes.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, helping reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties through structured exercises and problem-solving. Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple attention and breathing practices to increase present-moment awareness and reduce emotional reactivity, which can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and coping with trauma reactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Walter works collaboratively with each client to identify which methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences, and he adjusts techniques as progress is made.

Online therapy with Walter is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for those with busy schedules, mobility limits, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and maintain continuity of care while fitting therapy into everyday life.
