About Edward

Edward Brock is a licensed mental health counselor with 12 years of practice in Washington who draws on an integrative toolkit to help clients address stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, and life transitions.

Background and approach

He blends evidence-based therapies with an individualized, compassionate stance so people can explore patterns that limit them and develop practical skills for coping and change. His LMHC credential is listed as WA LMHC LH 60017490.

Clients find that his work addresses a broad range of issues from self-esteem and career challenges to trauma, grief, and addictions, along with additional focuses such as attachment difficulties, codependency, and parenting concerns.

He uses structured approaches when helpful and also attends to emotional experience and relational patterns, aiming to support clearer communication, healthier coping, and steadier day-to-day functioning. Edward emphasizes collaboration and respects each person’s pace and goals, weaving together approaches like Internal Family Systems, ACT, CBT, and DBT to match individual needs.

He accepts international clients and offers multiple online formats so people who live in varied circumstances can access care that fits their schedule and preferences.

Integrating Approaches for Online Care



Internal Family Systems (IFS) centers on identifying and relating to different parts of a person’s inner experience, helping people understand and calm conflicting thoughts and feelings so they can move toward greater internal harmony. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages clarification of values and teaches practical acceptance and mindfulness skills to reduce struggle with difficult emotions and increase committed action toward meaningful goals.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work itself, and Edward treats that as a collaborative process. He draws on clients' feedback and goals to decide whether to emphasize IFS, ACT, CBT, DBT, or attachment-focused techniques, adjusting the plan as needs and priorities evolve so the approach fits the person rather than the other way around.

Online therapy with Edward is available via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which supports scheduling flexibility and access for people in different locations. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care alongside work, family, or travel, and they allow therapists and clients to focus on practical tools and emotional work in ways that fit each person’s life.
