Therapeutic Approaches That Translate Well to Online Care

Dr. Wanetta "Nita" Hughes Bise, LPC, draws from several evidence-informed approaches that can work well in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing patterns in thoughts, feelings, and actions, then practicing practical skills to respond differently. It is often used to support concerns like depression, stress, self-esteem challenges, and day-to-day coping. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients make room for difficult thoughts and emotions while taking steps toward what matters most, which can be useful during life changes, relationship strain, or when feeling stuck. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early and current relationships shape connection, boundaries, and trust, and it can be especially helpful for relationship concerns and family-of-origin themes.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Dr. Hughes Bise collaborates with clients to clarify goals and preferences and then tailors sessions to what is most helpful, adjusting over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. This range of options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity when life gets complicated.
