About Engelbert

Engelbert Mittermayr is a licensed therapist who blends practical, evidence-informed methods with a person-centered stance to help people navigate difficult moments.

Background and approach

With 12 years of clinical experience and licenses as an LCPC and LPC (NV LCPC CP5778-R, OR LPC C8140), he draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and narrative approaches to address stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and concerns related to LGBT identity and bipolar mood challenges.

He frames therapy as a collaborative process that begins by recognizing each person's strengths and life story. Engelbert approaches each client believing they are the expert on their own experience, and he works to create space where those strengths can guide change.

His practice also attends to a broad range of focused concerns including attachment and abandonment, communication problems, chronic pain and illness, gender dysphoria, addiction, and issues arising from family of origin or intimate-partner conflict.

He encourages those taking the first step toward therapy and supports clients through assessment, goal-setting, and practical strategies informed by CBT, mindfulness, and narrative techniques.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Engelbert often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought and behavior patterns; this approach is practical and goal-oriented and is commonly applied to stress, anxiety, and mood challenges. He also integrates Client-Centered Therapy, which prioritizes empathetic listening and supports clients in exploring their own values and strengths without prescriptive direction. When appropriate, elements of Existential Therapy are woven in to aid reflection on meaning, choice, and life purpose.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to clarify goals, consider preferences, and trial strategies so the course of work fits the client's needs rather than imposing a single method from the start.

Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives by offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These flexible options allow clients to engage in real time or through messaging depending on what feels most practical and comfortable, making it simpler to maintain consistency and access support from different locations.
