Engelbert Mittermayr

Engelbert Mittermayr is a Nevada Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and an Oregon Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 12 years of clinical experience. He works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and abuse, and LGBT concerns. He also supports those exploring life purpose and people facing bipolar disorder. Engelbert uses straightforward conversation to help people make sense of what is happening now. He treats the client as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps rather than abstract theory. His approach draws on client-centered methods that emphasize listening and understanding. He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Mindfulness and narrative work appear in sessions when they fit the client’s goals. Clients can expect work on concrete problems such as managing panic, coping with loss, or addressing difficult relationship patterns from family of origin issues. He also addresses less typical areas like gender dysphoria, kink and alternative sexual culture, chronic illness and disability, and issues tied to abandonment or attachment. Engelbert asks questions, reflects what he hears, and helps people try small experiments between sessions. Getting started typically involves a short questionnaire and scheduling a first meeting to clarify goals and practical next steps. Background and approach notes: his dual licensure in Nevada and Oregon is part of his professional profile, and he conducts sessions in English. He does not accept international clients.

How Engelbert’s approaches translate to online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on careful listening and reflecting back what the client says. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist follow the client’s lead and clarify concerns, which helps when someone is unsure what matters next.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is about spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. In remote sessions CBT can include setting short experiments between meetings, tracking reactions, and reviewing what worked or didn’t.

Existential Therapy helps people name values, confront uncertainty, and make choices that matter to them. That can be useful for people questioning life purpose or feeling adrift after change.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Engelbert will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and he will adjust the focus over time based on progress and feedback.

Session formats are not listed in the provided biography, so confirm available options before booking. Many people find remote sessions help fit counseling into work and family schedules, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time.
