Approaches That Inform Online Care

Wayne Bills draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and the Gottman Method in his online practice. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replacing them with more adaptive strategies - it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. The Gottman Method centers on improving communication, reducing conflict, and strengthening emotional connection within couples, making it useful for relationship and marital issues.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is a collaborative process. Wayne works with each client to assess needs, preferences, and goals, and then tailors interventions accordingly. Clients can expect the therapist to explain options and adjust techniques as progress unfolds so that the approach fits the person and the situation.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction from home, phone sessions provide a flexible option when video is not possible, and live chat or text-based messaging can supplement care between appointments. These modalities make it easier to maintain consistency in treatment and to access licensed professionals from different locations while keeping therapy manageable alongside daily responsibilities.
