Dr. James Vincent Wisser, OH Psychologist

Online approaches that focus on action and clarity

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people clarify what matters to them and take steps toward those values. In plain terms this means noticing difficult thoughts and feelings without letting them stop you from doing what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks closely at thoughts and behaviors and teaches simple skills to reduce anxiety and change unhelpful patterns. Both approaches are practical and goal oriented, useful for stress, anxiety, ADHD-related challenges, and parenting concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Dr. Wisser will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That conversation often begins in the first sessions and can change as needs shift, so the plan stays aligned with real-world progress.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls are useful for fuller conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins and written reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, parenting, and other responsibilities.
