About Engelbert
Engelbert Mittermayr is a licensed clinical professional counselor - LCPC and a licensed professional counselor - LPC with 12 years of experience practicing in Nevada. He works with stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and bipolar-related struggles. He also supports people coping with guilt and shame and with issues like abandonment, attachment and family of origin problems.
Engelbert centers the person telling their story. He treats clients as the expert on their own life while offering skills and perspectives drawn from several approaches. Sessions are straightforward and focus on what matters most to the client now. He uses practical tools and questions to help people notice patterns and try different ways of responding.
His practice draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the client’s experience. He also brings cognitive behavioral techniques to test and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Narrative approaches help separate a person from painful self-beliefs, and mindfulness work teaches small ways to calm the body and mind.
People who carry shame or heavy guilt often come wanting clear steps. Engelbert helps name those feelings, look at their origins, and practice new behaviors that lessen stuck thinking. He pays attention to how family history and identity shape self-blame without making judgments.
Sessions aim to be practical and conversational. The first meetings focus on what the client hopes to change and which methods might help. From there he and the client set short-term goals and track what is working.
Approaches you can try online and how they fit
Client-centered therapy focuses on the client’s experience and priorities. It involves open conversation and reflection so the therapist follows the client's lead and highlights the person’s own strengths. This approach can help when guilt or shame makes it hard to speak about what happened.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches simple exercises to test unhelpful beliefs and try new behaviors. CBT can be useful for anxiety, persistent guilt, and mood shifts by giving concrete practices to use between sessions.
Existential therapy helps people name what matters to them and confront hard questions about meaning and choice. It can be helpful when shame or life transitions stir deep doubt about identity and purpose.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Engelbert will discuss goals, try methods, and adjust care based on what the client finds most useful. He works with clients to decide which mix of approaches fits their needs and preferences.
