My journey

There are multiple diagnoses that can be labeled and addressed. But at the end of the day, I am working with people. And, people wear their symptoms and diagnoses individually, uniquely, and wherever they are in life — and those personal factors make a big difference. I believe in the power to shift our lives and make the changes we are striving for, inside and out.

I am a holistic (body / mind / spirit) practioner, and I am a truth seeker. When we are walking in our personal path of truth, things get easier, doors open, and peace and understanding become part of the internal dialogue.

I have multi-modality experience and training; and extensive use and success with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) model, Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, and Energy Psychotherapy, and Compassionate Inquiry. I employ the use of Hypnotherapy when helpful. I have a psychodynamic bent — which means that I consider subconscious underpinnings — which sometimes means looking back to see what needs fixing so we can move forward.

My approach

Hi, I am Penne Schulz. I was born and raised in North Texas. I am an an entrepreneur and an adventurer at heart. In my early 20s I moved to Alaska — for 20 years. There I changed career paths from marketing/business to psychology. I was fascinated with the psychology of relationships and what makes us “tick.” In 2001 I graduated from Alaska Pacific University with my Master’s of Science in Counseling Psychology. And set out to mainly do couples counseling – helping relationships find, restore, and create intimacy. My counseling path was broad and I learned and helped people through all sorts of twists and turns and traumas. I had, indeed, found my true north. In 2005 I founded my private practice, Hillside Counseling at the foot of the Chugach Mountain Range in Anchorage. And, in 2011 I headed back to Texas and continued doing what I love to do: providing therapy. I established Hillside Counseling here in North Texas and added more people, to help more people!

I have a passion for helping people move toward their healthier selves, moving through unknown passages, healing broken-ness, and creating healing and happier solutions through their own vulnerability, authenticity, and intimacy with self and each other.
